Nordlund boats

July 29th, 2009 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Nordlund owners tend to be very experienced boaters. They know exactly what they want. Trouble is, they can’t always find it. Not all in one boat anyway. So that’s where they come in. They build boats that are 100% custom. If you can describe it, and the naval architects can draw it, they can build it.

Nordlund is a family-owned, family-run boat yard. While these boats are enormous endeavors costing significant sums, they’re primarily built so you can have fun. Of course there’s a lot more to building a great boat. Design. Innovation. Quality. Dependability. Their boats have all those attributes. But even more, people return to build another Nordlund because of the camaraderie here. It’s why their customers come back. Simple as that. Lots of yards can build a boat. Few succeed at building relationships.

Isle au Haut Boat Services

July 28th, 2009 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Isle au Haut Boat Services operates year-round passenger, mail and freight service between Stonington and Isle au Haut, and seasonal service to the Duck Harbor Landing of Acadia National Park. They are happy to serve their seasonal residents and daily visitors during the busy summer months, but their mission is also to support Isle au Haut’s year-round community during the quiet winter months.

For an unbridged island, reliable daily service is a fundamental part of building a sustainable community. Many of the things they take for granted - daily attendance for high school students, visits to the doctor, visits from friends and family, delivery of parcels - take on new dimensions when the ferry service is the only link from island to mainland. In 2008 they covered about 75% of their operating expenses from passenger, mail and freight income. The remaining 25% is funded by the Town of Isle au Haut, by the US Department of Transportation, by the National Park Service and by tax deductible contributions from private donors.

Bar Crusher boats

July 22nd, 2009 | Comments Off | Posted in 123triad

Bar Crusher boats deliver a super-smooth ride - a far cry from the uncomfortable, hard pounding ride of traditional aluminium boats. Here’s why… most people who have been for a ride in an aluminium boat on a choppy day have been disappointed with the hard ride. The reason for this is that many of the ‘pressed sheet tinnie’ style boats and many plate-based fishing boats have been traditionally built with a relatively shallow dead rise or V at the transom, (often as little as 10 degrees). In other words, viewed from the rear they appear to have a fairly flat bottom. Bar Crusher boats, in contrast, with their water ballast system, are built using between 18 and 20 degrees of V at the transom depending on the model.

Bar Crusher boats are real ‘plate’ boats that use cutting-edge technology in both design and construction. They’re not pressed and ‘tacked’ together like the cheaper mass produced aluminium boats. They’re hand built by highly-skilled tradespeople. Bar Crusher boats are built using heavy 3mm, 4mm and 5mm marine aluminium which is pre-stressed and then formed to provide strength. The sub-floor construction is triangulated and boxed similar to an aeroplane wing to provide rigidity and stiffness. The engineered Rigideck TM sub-floor system is designed to minimise ‘racking’ or twist, which is the number one cause of fatigue cracking in other aluminium boats.
