River Quays Marina has a long association with the restoration of traditional timber vessels. Our team of experienced shipwrights take interest and pride in putting their skills of traditional boat construction to use.

Timber vessels recently restored include Halvorsen cruisers, Dragon Class yachts and a Riva Ariston.

As owners of timber vessels are well aware, maintenance can be very labour intensive. To assist in budgeting, costings are collated prior to work and monitored daily, during works.

To expedite repairs, and assist in efficiency, major works are carried out in our 1600sq metre, undercover, secure work shed. Ease of access to vessels is gained by standing them adjacent to our raised shipwright loft, allowing deck level access to vessels under repair.
