If you don’t find what you’re looking for in the above list and its made in wood, give me a call. Boatbuilders are trained to take on very diverse projects from working with large timbers while laying traditional wooden keels for yachts right through to very fine detail for cabinet making for yacht and boat interiors. I can undertake most things if they are made of wood. My expertise is in the finer detail items.

I have access to experts in electrical, gas and engineering systems to ensure that full hull fit outs are completed without the need for you to call in other trades people. I also have contacts with signwriters and canal arts craftsmen.
