For the handling of your boat, choose the expertise
Whatever your boat type (sailing, catamaran, motor boat or yacht, trimarans), we have the right equipment and experience to bring you the best launching/grounding service. Because each handling is unique, depending on the type of boat as well as its size, weight and draft, we will use the most suitable lifting means to carry out the handling in the best conditions.
A know-how recognized for more than 35 years in the handling of monohulls.
With nearly 40,000 handlings carried out, Port Navy Service has a know-how recognized by thousands of boaters. According to the monohull, the handling is carried out with a travelift Or with a trailer.
For handling with the Travelift, we use protective sheaths for the straps to preserve the hull of your boat (dead works). The lifting points are studied upstream to ensure safe lifting.
For handling with trailer, the pads are covered with a foam 5 cm thick and of large sizes (1 meter by 50 centimeters), ensuring reduced efforts on the hull of your boat (live works).
For more than 20 years, an expertise for the delicate handling of catamarans and multihulls
Aware of the rise of multihull, investments in infrastructure and equipment were made in the late 1990s:
- A 10 meter wide launching ramp with a useful passage of 13 meters,
- Trailers studied and designed for handling catamarans.
For handling with trailers, the pads are covered with a 5 cm thick foam and large sizes (1 meter by 50 centimeters), ensuring reduced efforts on the structure of your catamaran. Their positioning is thought out in advance depending on the model of your boat.
With today more than 10,000 handled catamarans and trimarans, Port Navy service was called "Cataland» by its customers
