Travelift Hauling and Launching

Harbor Marineworks operates a late model 38 Ton Marine Travelift, with all the supporting equipment for hauling, blocking, launching, truck loading and vessel positioning.  We can accommodate a beam measurement of up to 18.5’ and a length measurement of up to 70’. We are equipped for two, three or four strap hauling with strap extension capability, rail blocking expertise, and a very in-depth knowledge of safe haul out operations.

Taxi Dancer on Travelift

Featured in this picture is Taxi Dancer, a renowned racing yacht that we recently hauled out, Awlgriped the hull and refinished the bottom.  Taxi Dancer is a carbon fiber Reichel Pugh 68 built by Esprit Racing Yachts, originally launched in 1989 and now home-ported in the Santa Barbara Harbor.

 

Because of Harbor Marineworks close proximity to Point Conception, nicknamed by sailors and serious ocean goers “Cape Horn of the Pacific”, we handle a high volume of vessels that are hauled out of the water and loaded on commercial haulers for transport to Northern Ports and destinations around the country.  Likewise we receive many vessels wishing to make Santa Barbara the departure point for calm Southern passages, and specialize in both the decommissioning and set up of sailboats and large power boats.

Whether it’s a major refit or just a quick Haul and Hang for a survey or prop change, we are happy to be of service.  We offer twenty four hour emergency haul outs available through the Santa Barbara Harbor Patrol, who can be reached at 805 564-5530 or via Channel 16.
