Commercial Rib Charter

It’s not just boats, we’ve got pontoons covered too!

2 minute read

CRC do more than just boats!.  People often assume that it’s just our impressive fleet of vessels we are well known for but they would be very wrong!  We are also the largest UK stockist’s of modular floating pontoons.

Floating Pontoon Hire, our sister company is based in the same building as CRC but has its very own dedicated team meaning we’ve got all aspects of your project covered!

What is a floating pontoon and where does it come in handy for commercial work?

Our modular pontoons allow rapid construction and can be configured into virtually any shape or size making them ideal for a wide range of commercial applications.  Floating Pontoon Hire carry out installations all over the UK and often into Europe.  With our own fleet of vehicles we can mobilise pontoons quickly and efficiently.

Often we are requested to build platforms to support cable lay installations, pipe inspections, bridge inspections etc.  We can even build our own vessel berths to operate where they may not be existing pontoons.

Call our dedicated FPH team on 01590 607104 to discuss your pontoon requirements

Women at the helm: Breaking stereotypes in the commercial workboat industry

The commercial workboat and Rib charter sector has long been viewed as a male dominated environment. Long days, demanding conditions, heavy equipment, and high pressure decision making have traditionally shaped perceptions of who belongs on deck. But the reality on the water is changing, not because standards have shifted, but because more women are meetingContinue reading "It’s not just boats, we’ve got pontoons covered too!"
