About

Since 1985, custom yacht carpentry has been our passion and our craft at Woodchuck Workshop, where we've completed over 3,000 marine projects throughout South Florida's bustling yachting community. Based in Fort Lauderdale with additional locations strategically positioned across South Florida, we bring nearly four decades of woodworking expertise to every vessel that comes through our doors, from luxury sportfish boats to the world's most prestigious superyachts. Our reputation as master craftsmen has been built one project at a time, working alongside nearly every major yacht manufacturer over our 33-year history in Fort Lauderdale. We specialize in the finest Burmese teak decking, understanding that a yacht's deck is both a functional surface and a statement of elegance. Our teak deck services encompass complete installations, meticulous repairs, and comprehensive refits that restore vessels to their original glory. Beyond decking, our expertise extends to teak cover boards and coaming for luxury yachts and high-end sportfish boats, including specialized work on dive doors and custom cover board solutions. Custom yacht refits represent some of our most challenging and rewarding work. We handle everything from complete interior top-down rebuilds to precision installations of Amtico synthetic flooring and expert Corian repairs. Our team approaches each refit project with the understanding that every yacht has its own character and requirements, tailoring our services to match the vessel's specific needs and the owner's vision. This comprehensive approach has made us a trusted partner for yacht brokers, individual owners, captains, and trustees who demand excellence in marine craftsmanship. Superyacht carpentry projects require a unique combination of traditional woodworking skills and modern marine engineering knowledge. Our team has the experience and facilities to handle vessels of any size, from intimate sportfish boats to massive luxury yachts that demand the highest levels of precision and attention to detail. We're proud to be Viking Certified, reflecting our specialized expertise in working with one of the industry's most respected manufacturers. Custom furniture creation showcases our versatility as marine craftsmen. We design and build hi-lo tables, yacht seating, custom cabinetry, filet tables, wine racks, rod holders, and custom sportfish fighting chairs that are both functional and beautiful. Each piece is crafted to suit the particular boat and owner's style, ensuring perfect integration with the vessel's existing design and layout. Our comprehensive carpentry services extend beyond these specializations to encompass virtually any woodworking need aboard a yacht or boat. From intricate cabinetry work to structural repairs, our team approaches every project with the same commitment to quality and craftsmanship that has defined our reputation for over three decades. Our client roster reads like a who's who of the yachting world, including partnerships with Lurssen Yachts, Trinity Yachts, Viking Yachts, Sunseeker, Ferretti, Bertram, Azimut Yachts, and Hatteras. This extensive experience across multiple manufacturers means we understand the unique requirements and standards expected by each brand, ensuring our work meets or exceeds original specifications. Operating Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, our team is ready to discuss your next marine carpentry project. Whether you're planning a complete refit, need expert teak work, or require custom furniture solutions, we bring the knowledge, skill, and dedication to deliver exceptional results.
