SHIPWRIGHT
& YACHT REPAIR SERVICE
Chris Young writes
I am a practicing shipwright
offering this sevice out of Newhaven, East Sussex, where I
have just recently restored a timber vessel for one of my
clients, I was indeed apprenticed to a local yard in this
part of Sussex where at that time (1970's) they were still
building in timber.
I carried out my City & Guild course studies with
other apprentices from Hillyards at that time at the
designated college.
I offer a mobile Shipwrighting Service, which helps in
keeping overheads to a minimum and therefore allows more
competitive hourly rate, subject to distance of travel etc
,
Vessels can be brought to Newhaven Marina, where there is
either hard standing ( Ashore storage ) or the option to
hire a newly reactivated boathall undercover faciility.(
Hired out for possible refits works )
Should any of your members be seeking this type of service
I leave this email plus a contact number.
