Warrnambool boat ramp receives $420,000 for upgrades

“There are 120 superyachts in our region. We can do better.”

Among the yachts taking home a Neptune trophy were the sensational 90m motor yacht DAR and 106.7m eco-focused sailing superyacht Black Pearl.

Of particular interest is Johnson Pump’s interactive display of a fly-bridge cruiser that can reproduce noises and problems found within live bait tank installations, domestic pressure pumps and wash down pumps on private and commercial boats.

The 130-metre ferry will join the other Incat ships already serving various ports on the River Plate between Argentina and Uruguay.

Included in the line up will be the popular 580 Islander, 610 Monaco and 640 Monaco models, all featuring Honda power and Easytow trailers.

From 2021, vessels below 500gt but above 24 metres must comply with a 2g/kWh standard, which can only be met by use of exhaust gas aftertreatment systems, which currently require a minimum of 30% additional space in the engine compartment.
