Telescopic Marine Crane – Telescopic Boom Deck Crane SWL 1–20 t
A telescopic marine crane has a straight boom that extends in sections to reach the load. It suits jobs where the hook has to go far over the side or deep into a hold, with a short stowed length. Marine Crane builds telescopic boom deck cranes in Türkiye for cargo ships, fishing vessels and government vessels.

Frequently asked questions
Telescopic or foldable crane – which is better?
Telescopic cranes give a long straight reach and simple operation; foldable cranes stow more compactly and can reach over obstacles. We advise based on deck space and the job.
What is the maximum outreach?
Up to about 35 m, depending on SWL and configuration.
