Refits and Refurbishment

We can carry out complete refits, repairs and refurbishment of all craft (power & sail) whether they are constructed in aluminum, grp, wood or steel. Works would typically involve all trades and services found at the yard.
MFV ‘Flapper’ was badly damaged by a manoeuvring coaster in Poole Harbour; the insurers employed Adrian White Surveyors to assess the damage and to recommend a yard to undertake the repairs.

BHBB were chosen to carry out the repairs, Adrian became a regular visitor to the yard inspecting and discussing the work as it progressed.

At the end of the project Adrian’s verdict was that BHBB’s craftsmen had done a quite remarkable, Flapper was as good as new and that he would have no qualms recommending the yard again.

Pictures: left foreground a Hillyard wooden sailboat is coming to the end of an extensive refit, background is a Nelson 42Mk 11 in build. The varnished sailboat is having new splines fitted along with some minor hull repairs prior to being re-varnished.

BHBB Logbook
Please note: All works carried out by our craftsmen will be entered into the Bucklers Hard Boat Builders "Service Log Book", this log book has been produced so that you the owner will have a permanent service record in much the same way you would with a car.
The logbook will also include important information about the craft; from name, make and model, engine manufacture and type, hull number, etc.
The logbook will contain brief details of works carried out and be stamped and dated by the yard. We request that it should always be kept in the chart table ready for inspection and updating. In time it will build into a useful service history for the craft.
