Company History
Since its beginnings in 1986, our business has grown from a residential pontoon design and construction company to a recognised, privately owned Queensland marine infrastructure contractor. We specialise in all forms of maritime projects and proudly serve all areas of Australia.
In 1996, the company implemented a growth strategy by investing and purchasing a substantive amount of piling equipment, including three barges for undertaking commercial works. This has subsequently grown to a fleet of seven piling barges of varying capacity and sizes. Our fleet of piling barges and equipment are serviced with a range of support and transfer vessels. All of our maritime equipment is registered and compliant with Queensland Maritime Safety requirements.
Noteworthy Achievements
In recent years, The Jetty Specialist has designed and constructed some of Australia’s most notable and award-winning marina developments. The majority of our completed projects have ranged from AU $20,000 to $12,000,000 and above.
Neil Morris, our director, has an extensive knowledge of the ownership and economical operation of marina developments through his directorship and involvement with Port Binnli Pty Ltd. This is a recognised waterfront property development company that owns and operates the Mackay Marina and Village and the Raby Bay Marina in Queensland. The Mackay Marina just won the Marina Industries Association Award for the second time for a having a commercial marina with more than 140 berths.
Neil’s skills in designing marinas for the maximum return on investment for The Jetty Specialist clients is second to none.
