Markey
Machinery, a world leader in the design and manufacture of custom engineered
winch systems for the oceanographic and workboat industries, is the newest
LANTEC winch dealer. Located in Seattle, Washington, Markey has developed an
industry-leading reputation for excellence in custom winches for towing, escort
and ship assist vessels, and near shore and deep sea research applications.
The LANTEC winches will complement Markey's own custom winch designs and allow them to offer a broader range of solutions to their client base. The addition of this product followed months of research for a product line that is smaller than the typical Markey winch, yet that delivers the quality and performance the industry has come to expect from Markey Machinery.
According to Blaine Dempke, Markey Machiney's President, "Allied's well-known product support coupled with LANTEC's well-proven product design will be well appreciated by the industry. In addition, Allied's ability to customize their standard LANTEC models by applying marine-duty options means we can offer our customers a winch that meets their, and Markey's, tough standards."
Markey has already had success in offering the LANTEC winch to its clients. They have recently placed a large order for winches to be used on two barges. Look for more details in future issues.
