Floating spars serve as the support structure for the Sea Cage net enclosures. They are held in position by a system of anchors and tensioned by motion-dampening floats and weights. Connections to the net enclosure are made at the top and the bottom of the spars, avoiding the need for surface floatation that waves and wind can work against. The SeaStation TM Sea Cage System is structurally simple, yet ocean compliant. SeaStation TM Sea Cage's unique design is based on avoiding the forces from waves rather than opposing them.
Waves move through the system leaving it unaffected.
The SeaStation TM Cage can withstand continuous waves of over seven meters, can be submerged and raised in fifteen minutes, and can be easily towed to a new location.
