FAQs

What types of watercraft are Bolina Watercraft Safety Booms designed to restrict?

Bolina Watercraft Safety Booms are designed for moderate flows below 1.5 m/s and short-duration or moderate wave exposure below 1.5 metres. They are suitable for medium- to long-term installations at waterways, dams, reservoirs and weirs.

What should be considered when specifying a Watercraft Safety Boom?

Key considerations include waterway width, flow velocity, wave exposure, watercraft type, required barrier length, anchoring and end connections, access requirements and installation duration. These factors help determine the appropriate boom configuration for the site.

How is a Watercraft Safety Boom engineered for site-specific conditions?

Bolina systems can be assessed using Boomforce, Ecocoast’s proprietary engineering calculator for analysing boom structures under different environmental and operational conditions. This supports the selection and design of a system suited to the site’s specific requirements.

Can Bolina Watercraft Safety Booms be customised for different sites?

Yes. Available options include reflective strips, specialised end connections, warning signage and graphics, access gates and branding. Demarcation lighting and buoys can also be incorporated where required to improve visibility and site management.
