About this equipment
Well known in the dredging industry this backhoe dredger is fitted with the overwhelmingly powerful 65 tonne Liebherr 964. The Witton is the ultimate in marina maintenance and capital dredging. With a 4m3 bucket, the hopper barges are loaded at a rapid rate therefor minimising time on site and disruption to the day to day running of the marina. Locally to the UK there is no other competitor to this market leader.
Build for British Watyerway's, sold in 1991 to Shephard of Liverpool sold it in 1992 to Dean & Dybill sold to Boskalis in ?? sold to ML.
