Tug Bream Bay

The vessel Tug Bream Bay came in from its home along the harbour at NorthPort for full survey.

Once up on the slipway, the tug was given the full once-over by the team, with an inspection for leaks and safety issues upmost in mind. Instructions were simple – a complete survey overhaul and painting repairs.

The service included the removal and replacement of all anode bolts, and full inspection of the vessel shottle drive units propellers, blades and nozzles. All fuel tanks were checked thoroughly, as well as all hull valves were removed, stripped, cleaned and service ready for the surveyor’s inspection.

The job ended with water-blasting and abrasive on the outer hull, with a new paint finish to complete.

Deep Water Port

Located in the calm, sheltered waters of Whangarei Harbour – we are one of only four deep water ports in New Zealand. We have a large slipway for vessels up to 1800 tonne which often handles two ships at once, as well as a second 40 tonne slipway for smaller vessels.

Sheltered Harbour

Facilities onsite include showers & toilets for crew, a fully equipped office with internet access, and easy access to Whangarei CBD. We can arrange rental vehicles, accommodation, sort out crew visas and permits and look after you during your time ashore.

Full Project Management

As well as our team of specialist marine fabricators, heavy engineers, fitters and electricians, we work with our trusted specialist tradespeople and suppliers, or yours, to complete your ship repair project on time and within budget.
