MARINE INSTITUTE REEF BALL DEPLOYMENT WORK IN 3PS
January 22, 2025

The Marine Institute is looking for a potential fish harvester to provide a quote for some deployment work in Placentia Bay for about 280 reef ball and layer cake reefs. The fishing vessel would have to have a lifting capacity of up to 5 tons using either a crane or a frame. Members interested will need to provide a quote for the work including daily rate at sea, daily rate for mob and demob, and daily rate at wharf due to bad weather (non-working). Please see the attached form and contact Mark Santos with quotes or any questions at mark.santos@mi.mun.ca
