Shorewater Marine in $5m contract

Wangara-based Shorewater Marine has won a $4.9 million contract to replace facilities at Hillarys Boat Harbour and build new boat pens at Two Rocks Marina.

The contract includes the demolition of condemned maritime structures including the original fuel jetty in the coming months, followed by the construction of relocated boat pens later this year.

Department of Transport coastal infrastructure general manager Steve Jenkins said the contract would deliver improvements to marine facilities and users at Hillarys Boat Harbour and Two Rocks Marina.

“At Hillarys Boat Harbour 30 year old floating concrete jetties (B and C) are at the end of their working life and will be replaced allowing for the installation of a new modern floating pen system. Staged demolition work will commence in July ahead of a year-long construction phase,” he said.
