This fully self-contained, eco-friendly unitrepresents a major breakthrough in boat-lifting equipment. The aluminum floating dry dock is 140 feet long, with 42 feet ofspace between the 26-foot tall wing walls. It is capable of lifting vessels of up to 1000 tons, at 5 LT/feet of keel block loading. Unique because it is con- structed entirely of marine-grade aluminum (a high-cal- iber alloy), the unit rivals the strength of steel in terms of durability and strength with the added benefit of being lightweight. The finished surface includes a cathodic pro- tection system that protects it from salt water degradation in the hostile environment of saltwater. www.allenmarine.com MN#11 (98-105):MN 2011 Layouts 10/27/2011 10:23 AM Page 103
