About Park Isle Marine
Our shop has hundreds of years of combined experience in the fine craft of boat building. We build boats from the ground up, but also do simple maintenance, full mechanical refits and complete restoration projects. Whatever your boating needs are, our specialists can help you get back on the water quickly and efficiently.
Philosophy
It is our goal to create our clients dreams by hand crafting the ultimate in Structural Integrity, Seaworthiness and Quality with the finest North American craftsmanship. We believe the best way to build a quality vessel is with a small group of highly skilled people, this will keep the wasted materials and man hours to a minimum.
It is my experience that most large boat building companies have a great deal of unnecessary cost built into the price of their products. This is passed onto the customer in various ways and the bottom line is less of the customers money goes into the vessel and more into overhead marketing and commissions.
The overall thrust at Park Isle Marine, then, is pretty straightforward - to craft custom vessels that represent the ultimate in structural integrity and comfort using the finest North American craftsmanship. Our clients are experienced yachtsmen (and women) with specific cruising needs who appreciate the meaning of seaworthiness and the value of quality workmanship.
History
When Park Isle Marine first opened our doors in 1987 the main stay of the business was restorations of classic mahogany runabouts and sailing vessels. The business then expanded into the repair and refit business and then into new construction as well. We are now in our thirtieth year and our focus is on new construction of the highest quality, structural integrity and seaworthiness.
With a life to date filled with boating and boat building there is virtually nothing in the construction process which can slip past or go astray from the management of Park Isle. At any given point in the construction of a vessel we are open minded to new and progressive methods and materials, however we do know the old tried and true methods whatever the task at hand may be. The management team at Park Isle Marine is first and foremost boat builders, we also happen to be very good at recruiting and managing people.
