Straight Line Marine provides valuable support in machining customized fittings
When our long time customer, a 150’ Palmer Johnson, returned to Lauderdale Marine Center for service and maintenance, they asked us to perform some routine maintenance on the forward crane system. During the process, we found that the stainless steel pins had corroded the aluminum housing of the unit making it unsafe to function as designed. Instead of sending the unit out to a third party machine shop for re-fabrication, we were able to take advantage of our in-house operations, Straight Line Marine. Straight Line was able to quickly fabricate and machine new bronze bushings and insert it into the unit. This quickly put the job back on track for our Hydraulic technicians to finish their job and get the crane safely installed back in the boat.
