Since our founding in 1947, we have established ourselves as one of the premier marine service providers along the Eastern Seaboard, and our Fort Pierce facility at 101 Port Ave continues this proud tradition of delivering exceptional yacht maintenance, repair, and refit services. We specialize in comprehensive boatyard services designed to meet the diverse needs of yacht owners, commercial vessel operators, and marine enthusiasts throughout South Florida. Our state-of-the-art haul-out and launch capabilities accommodate vessels of various sizes, from recreational boats to luxury yachts, ensuring safe and efficient dry dock operations. Our experienced marine technicians utilize modern equipment and time-tested techniques to handle your vessel with the utmost care during every haul-out and launch procedure. Our bottom painting services represent one of our core specialties, where we apply premium antifouling coatings that protect your vessel's hull while optimizing performance and fuel efficiency. We understand that proper bottom maintenance is crucial for vessel longevity and operational costs, which is why our team uses only the highest quality marine paints and follows industry best practices for surface preparation and application. We take pride in our deck and fiberglass repair and replacement services, addressing everything from minor cosmetic issues to major structural reconstructions. Our skilled craftsmen possess extensive experience working with various fiberglass materials, gelcoats, and composite structures. Whether you need small gel coat repairs, complete deck refurbishment, or complex fiberglass reconstruction, we deliver results that meet both aesthetic and structural requirements. Our general marine repair and maintenance services encompass a broad spectrum of vessel needs, from routine upkeep to complex troubleshooting and repairs. We service mechanical systems, electrical components, plumbing systems, and hull maintenance, providing comprehensive solutions that keep your vessel operating at peak performance. Our team's diverse expertise allows us to handle multiple repair projects simultaneously, reducing downtime and getting you back on the water quickly. We also offer specialized mechanical and structural engineering services, setting us apart from typical marine service providers. Our engineering capabilities enable us to tackle complex refit projects, structural modifications, and custom installations that require technical expertise and precise execution. This engineering background, rooted in our shipbuilding heritage, allows us to approach challenging projects with confidence and deliver innovative solutions. Our Fort Pierce location strategically positions us to serve the entire South Florida marine community, from the Indian River Lagoon to the Atlantic Ocean. We understand the unique challenges that Florida's marine environment presents, from saltwater corrosion to hurricane preparation, and we tailor our services accordingly.
