Today’s inspection took us out to Treasure Island on the San Francisco Bay. Clear skies, the full Bay Bridge from Oakland all the way across, and San Francisco sitting in the background. Not a bad day to be out on the water.

We were out here conducting the annual inspection on a lattice boom crawler crane mounted on a barge, also known as a ringer. During the inspection we tested the anti two-block device on the whip line and it failed. No audible alarm, no automatic shutoff. On top of that, the whip line actually jammed inside the device itself. We had to swing over the sister crane with a man basket to send someone up and clear it before we could continue.

This is exactly why inspections exist. A two-block event on a live load can be catastrophic, and the downtime and liability that follows can run into the hundreds of thousands depending on the situation. We caught it on our terms today, and that’s the whole point.

Stay safe everyone.

Happy New Year to all the awesome and loyal customers that have supported us over the years.
Happy 250th birthday to this awesome nation that allows us to enjoy the freedoms and prosperity many countries only dream of.
Happy 40th birthday to DBCE Inc. Founded in 1986 by myself as a weekend mechanic performing truck and equipment repairs while holding down a full time job as a mechanic during the week. It has been a long journey filled with wins and losses, but i wouldn't change a thing.... Here is a sample of our commemorative coin and hard hat decal. Hit me up in passing and I'll happily share with you... As I slow down and Joe Bailey steps up we look forward to forty more years....My heart feels like this could go on for a long time as I now have eight grand kids... LOL.....

I personally not afraid of working.

I am not sure about any one else doing business in California but here a few examples of the challenges we have been dealing with.... 23,24 and 25 General liability rates went up 25-35 % each year and that is with no DBCE Claims. WC comp has been at a .95 work Mod for numerous years, then we have two small (4k) claims, and now a huge fraudulent claim that has sent us to the moon... Causing our WC to double in price... This all being caused by things or people out of control but protected by the state. No one is ever held liable for their own actions these days... How do we stay in Business in California and for how much longer....Tech's want $40-$50 and hour but can't do any work without having someone holding their hands, and if you hire a shop foreman to help the work flow, they just sit back and suck it up as they don't want to create waves in the shop... WOW....My Boat stays the same size while my paddles keep getting smaller..... Feels like we are facing forces that just make it not desirable to be here doing this....
