40 | WATERLINE March 2025 Marine Structures has been appointed as the exclusive Australasian dealer for Seaflex, the global supplier of mooring systems for floating structures. Seaflex is widely recognised for its innovative elastic mooring systems, which provide secure, environmentally friendly, and durable solutions for floating docks, wave attenuators, and other marine applications. An example of the world’s leading subsea anchoring system can be found at Brooke Street Pier, a 5000 tonne, multi-story floating pier in Hobart’s CBD. This important part of Tasmania’s tourism infrastructure is the departure point for the famous Mona Museum, and many would not even realise that the structure is floating. This Seaflex installation is maintained by Hunter Diving and Marine Construction, the long-term dealer for Marine Structures in Tasmania. “This partnership is a testament to our commitment to bringing world-class marine solutions to the Australasian market,” said John Hogan CMP, Director Marine Structures. “Seaflex’s proven technology aligns perfectly with our mission to provide sustainable and reliable mooring systems. We’re excited to introduce these innovative solutions to our clients and contribute to the future of marine infrastructure.” Robin Wilhemson, Sales Leader Seaflex, also shared his enthusiasm for the collaboration: “We’re delighted to welcome Marine Structures to the Seaflex family. Their extensive expertise and strong reputation in the region make them the ideal partner to represent our products. Together, we aim to support the growing demand for environmentally conscious mooring solutions in Australasia.” This technology is especially relevant for large superyacht and wave attenuation projects as well as deep water and rock applications.
