FULL BUILDING, FAST DELIVERY

With professional project management in Brisbane, we offer full services from custom design to the delivery and training of crew. Over the years, we have delivered domestically and internationally, including Tahiti, Seychelles, Africa, Dubai, the Carribean, Canada, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and many more. Our diesel-powered boats are delivered ready to go, adhering to all standards. By meeting with the owner one-on-one and working out every need and requirement, we can deliver realistic, reasonably-priced products that tick every box. Custom design and majority build is the way we do it!

Plus, our background as seafaring captains allows for proper training of crew on how to operate the boats safely and securely. This allows for appropriate handover for the owner. In addition to the outstanding opportunity for the operating crew, every boat we design is efficient, with smart positioning, sizing and layout of the deck, cabin, wheelhouse and engine room. After all, we work with shipyards around the world to meet owner requirements, design the boat build to owners standards and deliver the vessel to the intended shipping yard.

In order to provide the best support services for our clients, we prioritise high-quality repairs, both big and small, as well as comprehensive builds and re-manufacturing. We can also complete analysis for customers to determine the best modifications for their boat. This may include cosmetic improvements and machinery upgrades for the hull or cabin, as well as redesigning the vessel or reconfiguring the propulsion system for increased performance and economy.

Our quality interior refits of small and large vessels come in very handy for our customers, as does our selection of parts and pieces for your boat. We supply equipment for ongoing maintenance to ensure the vessel operates to maximum efficiency. We have everything from light bulbs to replacement engines. Parts are ordered and sent to our warehouse facility before being sorted and packed.
