What we do
Wooden boatbuilding & maintenance
With backgrounds in wooden boatbuilding we are passionate about keeping traditional boatbuilding skills alive. For us this looks like building new small watercraft including to commission, restoring and maintaining existing wooden boats and looking after the wooden parts of GRP and other construction vessels.
Please do get in contact using the form below if you have a need of these skills.
We have extensive experience in maintaining GRP vessels. Our services include but are not limited to:
Gelcoat repairs, including colour matching
Polishing
Osmosis treatment
Structural repairs
GRP repairs
Vessel condition report
We are pleased to offer a vessel condition reporting service. This has similarities to a survey in that it is qualified and experienced eyes looking over your vessel to look for potential issues. This service is tailored for the DIY boat owner, and will help give a steer on the high priority tasks on the vessel alongside the areas best tackled by a professional.
Please note, this service is not a survey as far as insurance is concerned.
Who we are
We are Sam and Dani Richardson, both qualified traditional wooden boat builders who have worked individually and together in the marine industry since 2012. We have worked on a whole range of vessels from super yachts overseas to small watercraft in local sailing clubs and want to lend our experience to your boating needs. Whichever of our services you are interested in we would love to hear from you to talk through how we can help
