Keep your boat legal and ready for adventure

When you rely on certified welders with strong ties to marine certifiers, you get repairs and upgrades finished on time and within budget, without unnecessary stress. From structural repairs to compliance-certified trailer builds, your boat remains reliable, road compliant and ready whenever you are.

All projects, from trailer rebuilds to marine fabrications, take place in a well-equipped local workshop with clear up-front quotes and deadlines you can trust. Working closely alongside you ensures your boat and trailer keep performing, with no last-minute surprises holding you back.
