SERVICE WORK: We recently did some bottom work on a boat that needed bow thruster repairs, shaft work, and installed new underwater lights. Also did a beautiful red boot stripe just in time for the holidays. If you are in need of service work, give us a call, and let’s get you on the schedule.

NEW CONSTRUCTION: We just wrapped up construction to the forward fuel tank for one of our 64’s under construction. To maximize the full fuel capacity, we lower our sump pump box so our boats have no leftover fuel.

NEW CONSTRUCTION: Our express build had her glass installed last week. These are very specialized, high-performance bent/curved glass built to precise measurements. They’re designed for de-fogging and allow our customers to enjoy their yachts in the most extreme of heat and cold conditions without compromising safety.

We build custom boats for our customers who travel the world in pursuit of billfish. Here are some pics from when the 63’ Olivia went from Ft. Lauderdale, FL to Gulfito, Costa Rica on United Yacht Transport. If you’re looking for speed, comfort, or something personal, that’s what we build. Completely custom, completely for you.

Flitches (cuts of timber from a tree trunk, usually from the outside) of figured walnut ready to be made into veneer. We purchase the entire log which gives us perfect consistency throughout the cabin and staterooms below. Once cut, the pieces are matched and sequenced. This particular log is for our newest 64’ build.
