SERVICES

 
                 
  Starboard Marine is a full service restoration shop for the wood or fiberglass boat owner.  
  Traditional boat building methods are used in the restoration or repair of your boat. We use modern materials to ensure the durability of your boat and enhance the rich beauty of these historic vessels.

For instance, we use 3M's 5200 for frame and bottom bedding on wood boats rather than epoxy as many restorers use. The rubbery 5200 provides a cushion between the frames and the bottom adding a degree of flexibility to the boat as the wood expands and contracts with the seasons and usage. If desired, all exposed surfaces are sealed with Smith's Penetrating Epoxy to guard against water absorption and impede the growth of rot. All fasteners are stainless steel, brass, or silicon bronze which is the fastener of choice due to its strength and ability to stem corrosion.

Starboard Marine uses the very best mahogany, cedar, white oak, teak, and marine grade plywood available to make your boat its very finest whether you use it for everyday cruising or for show entry. We use the same high standards for all our fiberglass work, too.

CUSTOM BOAT BUILDING

     
     

We have many vintage boat plans on file for racer, small runabouts, hydroplanes and rowboats. These boats can be built to suit your fancy with custom upholstery, hardware, decking ad cockpit configuration. If you have existing plans for your dream boat, Starboard Marine can take it off the drawing board and make it float.
