New Wave Docks launches motor barge kit concept

Aggressive welded bow points and two bar
By Steve Bareham, Nelson, B.C.

There's a new multi-functional option for people wanting a large, stable motorized floating watercraft that's affordable, be it for use as a pontoon boat, a work barge, floating gazebo, or mobile dock. 

Just introduced by New Wave Docks, 100 Mile House, B.C., the sturdy wide-body catamaran give buyers a durable, high-weight capacity boat that can be assembled literally in a day and purchased for $5,995 FOB 100 Mile House, B.C. Shipping to most locations in B.C. and Alberta is less than $1,000.

This is no prissy unit; it’s built to be used and to last for many years thanks to thick poly floats and aluminum rails. Pictured is the 8 foot x 18' 3"  foot Wolverine unit with six NW1400 floats and four hydrodynamic bow and stern cones that provide an incredible 9000 pounds of submersion capacity. This mean you can carry 4,500 pounds on deck -- that's a lot for an 18-foot craft.
