Henan Hengkun Crane Launches Advanced Tire-Mobile Boat Cranes for Global Marinas and Shipyards
Innovative Self-Propelled Solution Revolutionizes Yacht Handling and Maintenance

Xinxiang, Henan, China – Henan Hengkun Crane Co., Ltd., a pioneer in industrial lifting solutions, today unveiled its next-generation Tire-Mobile Boat Cranes (commonly known as Yacht Lifts). Designed for marinas, shipyards, and waterfront facilities worldwide, these versatile cranes combine unmatched mobility with heavy-lift precision to streamline yacht launching, retrieval, and maintenance operations.

Key Features & Innovations:

1. All-Terrain Mobility

   • Robust rubber tires enable 360° self-propelled movement on docks, ramps, and uneven surfaces.

   • Zero reliance on fixed tracks or rails – ideal for dynamic waterfront environments.

2. High-Capacity Lifting

   • Capacities from  20T to 1200T+ to handle sailboats, motor yachts, and commercial vessels up to [X] meters in length.

   • Customizable spreader beams with anti-sway technology ensure gentle, secure load control.

3. Intelligent Operation

   • Radio remote control allows single-operator precision in congested spaces.

   • Hydraulic outriggers provide automatic stabilization on slopes or soft ground.

4. Marine-Grade Durability

   • Corrosion-resistant coatings (epoxy + zinc) protect against saltwater, UV, and humidity.

   • Waterproof electrical systems compliant with IP66/67 standards.

5. Global Compliance

   • CE-certified design; optional DNV-GL/BV/ABS certifications for shipyard applications.

   • Meets ISO 4301, FEM 1.001, and EN 13000 safety standards.

Solving Critical Industry Challenges:

"Traditional boat hoists lack flexibility, while Floating Cranes struggle in shallow waters," notes Mr.Zhao, Chief Engineer at Hengkun Crane. "Our tire-mobile cranes deliver land-based maneuverability with marine lifting power – cutting downtime by 40% during yacht haul-outs or engine repairs."

Target Applications:

• Seasonal yacht storage (launching/retrieval)

• Emergency vessel salvage

• Shipyard maintenance & refits

• Dock construction support

Technical Highlights:

• Lifting Weight: 20-1200T

• Lifting Speed: Variable (0.5–5 m/min)

• Power Options: Diesel-electric hybrid or full electric
