About The Slipway
The slipway operations started in 2004 as a joint venture company with South Sea Engineering Limited.
In 2011, the slipway was bought by the Solander Group of Companies and they became 100 per cent shareholders.
SSSL is a specialist “small ship” slipway and engineering works.
The slipway can accommodate ships up to 400 tonnes and the length of the present cradle is 32.5 meters.
There are plans for extension this year.
