Boat Building

Boat Building, Repairs and Restoration:

 

We offer bespoke boat building and repair and restoration services. Recent commissions include a wooden canoe, repairs to 3 GRP racing kayaks, and restoration work on Ruadh, a David Boyd Piper Class dayboat.
 
We can build you a beautiful wooden canoe, kayak or dinghy, restore or repair your boat, or provide a helping hand with your project.

We specialise in building canoes and kayaks with marine plywood and epoxy resin, selecting top quality materials to build strong, lightweight, and durable boats. We are happy to take on commissions for larger boats and other types of work including repairs to GRP.
 
We regularly update the Projects page with information including pictures of recent commissions.
