Boat Care
Helping you to spend more time afloat
What is BoatCare?
We care about your boat as much as you do. That’s why we’re so excited to announce that we can now offer our BoatCare service to customers from all of our south-coast marinas - Deacons, East Cowes, Haslar, Portland and Weymouth.
Headed up by Nick Gill, and led out of our Portland and Deacons boatyards, our team of boatbuilders, engineers and finishers are supported by our sister marine engineering business, Marine Power. We provide a one-stop shop for all boat repair and maintenance tasks, from showers to keels, rigging to thrusters. You only need to make one call – we’ll take care of it all.
