Our Work

From deck strengthening and steelwork to new coffee shops and disabled access, Penzance Dry Dock lovingly prepared this 1977 passenger ferry for many more years of service. For eight months each year, the Scillonian III ferries up to 485 passengers between Cornwall and Scilly.

In winter, the Gry Maritha is Scilly’s only scheduled sea connection. Penzance Dry Dock worked around the clock to give the islands their lifeline back. The day before new year’s eve 2013, the Gry Maritha struck crow rock, half a mile out of St Mary’s Harbour, causing hull damage to the starboard side.

Marine and Towage Services based in Falmouth are an independently owned company providing a wide range of marine services from towage, salvage and civil engineering support. Penzance Dry Dock worked on a project of hull cleaning and anti-fouling which was finished to a high standard.

Levant Mine is part of Cornwall and West Devon's World Heritage Site; it is the only Cornish mine engine in the world that still runs on steam.
