SF Marina Systems USA announced it has provided docks for the Cup base in Bermuda.
 
A provider of concrete floating structures including concrete docks and floating breakwaters, SF Marina Systems installed the first dock system in the Dockyards area for the Oracle team’s support boats and the racing catamarans.
 
The Dockyards location has constant commercial activity going on as it acts as one of Bermuda’s commercial ports. As a result, portions of the dock system need to be periodically removed to allow the berthing of large ships. To accommodate this, the dock system has been designed with large single cast 82’ fingers, which are moored with Sea flex elastic Mooring Systems. In addition, Detachable pile guides allow the assembled section to move in one piece.
