30 YEARS IN THE MAKING

ABOUT US

A Legacy of Craftsmanship

What began as a diesel mechanic shop in Fort Lauderdale over 30 years ago has evolved into a full-service yacht maintenance, repair, and refit company. Family-owned and operated, our company has the technical expertise necessary to analyze customer needs and fabricate solutions for boats ranging anywhere from sports fishing vessels to mega yachts.

Our Management Team

In this industry, experience counts

Where knowledge is concerned there’s no such thing as going overboard. Our management team has worked on all types and sizes of vessels, allowing us to engineer and advise on the best solution or services for your yacht. Not only do we service yachts, but as boat owners and previous yacht captains, we can relate to the full scope of our customers’ needs. As a result, our solutions always target the technical and the personal.
