I am a wooden boatbuilder based in South Devon, specialising in the construction of new wooden launches. After many years repairing and restoring traditional wooden boats and yachts, my work is now focused on bespoke new builds.
Hulls and joinery are constructed using traditional methods, while design and detailing are approached with an open-minded and contemporary aesthetic. Finishing, metalwork, and fittings employ modern techniques, with much of the metalwork designed and fabricated in-house.
Each boat is built to commission, developed through a close and collaborative process with the client.
