Tallvine Partners acquires San Francisco’s Lind Marine
Adds West Coast marine infrastructure coverage to a platform that began with Donjon Marine, with service lines spanning dredging, towing, salvage and remediation.
Tallvine Partners’ North American marine infrastructure platform has added Lind Marine, a San Francisco-based provider of dredging, towing, salvage, shipyard and environmental remediation services across the San Francisco Bay.
The company operates from Mare Island, where its shipyard includes a 400-foot drydock, and serves industrial, utility, municipal, government and waterfront-owner customers.
Founded in 1906, Lind Marine has more than 120 employees and a fleet of 40 vessels.
Its work supports the operation, maintenance and environmental stewardship of Bay Area waterways and harbor infrastructure, and the company also operates Moose Boats, a builder of aluminum catamarans and monohulls for law enforcement, firefighting and military customers.
The transaction is Tallvine Partners’ second acquisition under its North American marine infrastructure strategy, following Donjon Marine in September 2025.
Donjon Marine brought East Coast operations to the platform, while Lind Marine adds West Coast service coverage and a San Francisco Bay Area operating base.
Christian Lind, CEO of Lind Marine, will continue to lead the business, which will keep operating under the Lind Marine brand.
Thoroughbred LLC continues to serve as the platform’s industrial partner.
Tallvine Partners is a Miami-based investment adviser focused on value-add middle-market infrastructure opportunities across energy and utilities, transportation and logistics, and communications in North America.
