Services

- Dry Dock

Our fully covered and heated dry dock is available for DIY use or fully serviced by our staff. Thus, you can hire the dry dock to paint your boat yourself - we will pressure wash first - or you can ask us to paint your hull for you including a visual check of stern gear and hull.

The dock can accomodate 2 boats at a time - one full length boat and a boat up to 65 feet in length. Boats sit safely on stocks so that the DIYer can work at a convenient height in ideal conditions. The dock can be drained in less than half an hour by a poweful diesel powered pump, augmented by electric pumps to ensure that the dock remains absolutely dry, so you can start work as quickly as possible.

We can undertake most repairs to your hull; for instance if your prop shaft is worn, all spares are kept in stock. Worn area on your hull? No problem, our expert staff can undertake any repairs necessary.All paints, brushes, rollers, gloves etc are kept in stock.

You can rest assured that no matter what you may find when you dry dock your boat we will be able to deal with it. And, with our dry dock being fully covered, we (or you, if you choose the DIY option) are able to carry on working no matter what the weather is doing!

The dock is only available for DIY work between Friday and 9.00 am Monday.
