HALO in action at Shipyard Marina in Hoboken, NJ

Like most marinas on the Hudson River, Shipyard Marina in Hoboken, NJ was slowly being shaken apart by ferry, barge and cruise ship wakes. Its dock had split, its pilings were disintegrating, and its boat owners were cancelling their slip reservations.

Although the marina owners had spent considerable amounts of money installing a barge as a wave barrier, it was simply not working to prevent damage or protect boats. To make matters worse, the barge cost thousands of dollars each year to maintain.

Enter HALO. The folks at Shipyard needed a 2-row HALO Harbor system along the north side of their marina, where they were facing direct exposure to a NY Waterway ferry point. In under one day, HALO arrived, was put to water, towed to location by a single motorboat and was deployed alongside existing dock pilings.

Watch as a ferry wake is broken down between rows of HALO harbor.
