5FT Tall Barges
The 5FT Tall Barge is a staple in the Poseidon Sectional Barge fleet. Poseidon manufactures 3 different connection styles to accommodate compatibility with most market offerings a customer may own and simply wish to supplement with a rental.
Poseidon P1 Series
This sectional barge has cast connectors on 5’ centers down each side and on the end of the section. Each casting features a male nub and a female indentation. When the next barge or accessory is mated to it, the castings fit together. Then a 5’ “Dogbone” Connector Pin is installed to secure the sections to one another.
A unique feature of the P1 Series barges are that they are completely symmetrical in casting placement. There is no “wrong direction” when setting them into the water for a deck assembly. Castings will line up in any direction.
