Berthing Pontoon

Barcaldine, Oban, Argyll Barcaldine Marine A NEW short stay pontoon has been installed during spring 2011, which has 6 deep water berths for loading and watering. It is close to car and dinghy parking and at the closest shore position to the moorings. The introduction of this temporary loading pontoon is a significant stage in the development of Barcaldine Marine. We currently have 50 swinging moorings and our plan is to extend this to 100 as demand for moorings increases. The availability of the pontoon adjacent to waterside car parking and installed with freshwater supply, WiFi, and night lighting will compliment the existing range of services available. Barcaldine Marine has been established as a winter storage facility for over 10 years offering indoor and outdoor storage options, the afloat facilities now give the complete year round package for the yacht owner seeking a base on the west coast of Scotland Selection of photos demonstrating the extent of our capabilities

The development of facilities at Barcaldine Marine, Loch Creran, continues with the construction of a short term berthing and landing pontoon to improve the service to yachts on long term moorings, and to short term visitors. Located close to existing waterside car parking, the new pontoon has been recently constructed by Fusion Marine, who are based at the Marine Resource Centre, home of Barcaldine Marine. The hammerhead arrangement will provide temporary berthing for up to 6 vessels at a time allowing ease of access for loading/unloading. The pontoon is moored in deep water and has 1.75m of depth at low water. Barcaldine Marine currently has 50 deep- water swinging moorings in a minimum depth of 6m. These are professionally laid and serviced and are suitable for vessels up to 13.5m in length or 15 tonnes gross weight, although larger or heavier vessels can be accommodated on request. In addition visitors' moorings are available for occasional overnight use.
