This company rebuilt my dock and replaced my concrete floats with a steel float. I was concerend at first thinking steel would look kinda industrial but when the new floats arrived they looked great and did not bounce around. They also "sleeved" my wood piles with steel pipe. Seeing the men out there in the storm working like it was no big deal, watching the divers go in and hook up thingamgiggys and having the owner email me every day with progress reports was really quite interesting. I would highly recommend that anyone with a need for a dock rebuild give this company a call. CL ...read more

I consulted with Whatcom Waterfront and found them very knowlegable on what was currently allowed on Lake Whatcom. They ended up saving me several thousands of dollars by repairing my pile and repairing my pier. The only thing they could not do was save my floats. The floats they sold me to replace my floats turned out to be very nice. We are glad we went with them! ...read more

It has been a long winter and even a longer time since our blog went out.We have repaired multiple boat houses, driven numerous pin piles, repaired several floats and ramsp through out the NW region. Our landing craft has been deployed in Chuckanut for the last month and we plan to return it for maintenance and normal operation in the next 2 weeks. Rosie the Riveter will be going out to drive piles along Lake Whatcom Blvd and Northshore before the end of the month. After that we have numerous pile repair projects in the Northwest region. Somewhere along the line we donated 2 large barge parties to the St Pauls Academy Auction. They went for 2700 each. I was happy to hear that Jalepenos will be hosting and that the owners of the local Dairy Queens will be supplying an Industrial Margarita Machine! It a good thing I will be the cpt and be sober...... In the meantime we are branching out in our areas of service. Whatcom Waterfront Construction is soliciting work in all areas of Washington and is now offering leasing to our Canadian Neighbors. We should be recieving our Idaho License in the next 60 days and hope to see more contracts out east. In the mean time we are renovating floats, repairing piles and laying out new waterlines for our clients in western washington... Oh yesm we are taking reservations for special event charting and party charters of our 55 x 20 foot motorized barge in August. Dusk till dawn..... ...read more

It seems the fall has come early this year but summer memories persist. We started the summer setting out floats for our clients across the lake and then went into demolition and pile driving at various sites around the Lake Whatcom and Lake Samish. In late July cleared our barge deck of heavy equipment and timbers and set up to participate in a charity event for St Pauls Academy. We donated our barge and crew for passenger transport and onboard entertainment during a progressive dinner. We set off on July 30 at around 3 PM for Dean and Joyce Shintaffer beach on Sunrise Cove. Enroute we encountered a Hobie cat race and enjoyed the show as the vessels raced around our barge as we passed though the event. A bit later we smiled as many people stopped what they were doing to watch our barge land softly on the Shintafers beach. We dropped our ramp and greeted our passengers. The Shintaffers provided drinks and appetizers to our passengers for the next couple of hours and then we loaded our guests onto the barge and shoved off for a short trip to John and Mimi Ferlins home on Strawberry point. Our passengers then disembarked for a couple hour dinner and dessert with the Ferlins. The barge crew BBQ on board and were visited by several passing boats and even provided fuel to one boater who had run too low to get home. At dusk our passengers re boarded our barge and we set off for a cruise that took us into the late evening. Under clear skies our passengers sat around the fire pit and sipped drinks while listening to jazz. The next week it was back to normal operations as we began phase II of the Wildwood Resort marine construction project. Over the summer we have completed the building of two new barge sections to increase the size and capacity of Rosie the Riveter. The new sections will add 14 feet to the barge and with the new configuration Rosie can go to a job site and break into two working modules. One module would be the crane barge module and the other the pushboat / resupply module. This will allow operation to continue while additonal materials are procured or secondary projects are performed. One of the reasons we have done this is so that we can operate dinner cruises and provide food service on Lake Whatcom. WWC is looking to partner with a caterer that could provide food and personnel 3 days a week during summer months. Our intent is to service areas between Agate Bay and Geneva providing burgers, fries, pizzas, soft drinks and other items. If you are a caterer or know of one that might be interested in discussing this further, please contact us. Fall has our crew departing from the lake for a month while we do work on the historic Sandy Point pier on South Whidbey Island. We are doing epoxy grout injections into several of the piles to stabilize the pier for the years to come. Upon our return we will be taking floats out of the water for our clients and preparing for the winter pile driving season. WWC works year round so if one of these cold and stormy nights you spot something big and moving through the water it is likely Rosie the Riveter. We operate normaly on VHF channel 69 should you be in the water and need to call out for us for assistance. ...read more
