A shipwright is a specialist who can help assist with your ship or boat building and design.
Shipwrights need to have extensive knowledge of every part of a boat. They combine being part engineer, part chemist and part craftsman to ensure a vessel can withstand a life on the sea.
For smaller ships a single shipwright may be able to tackle the task but it’s not uncommon when building a bigger boat that a team of shipwrights will work together as this combines the skill sets of many to ensure that no aspect of your ship building is over looked.
At Fix My Boat we’ve scoured low and high to find many companies that either have shipwrights or offer shipwright services so that you can quickly contact multiple companies and see who you best mesh with.
Boat building is a very intensive process so be sure to talk through the entirety of your project to ensure your shipwright has a full understanding of your demands in the process.
Feel free to browse through each of the companies and you can quickly see the peer reviewed rating for each business giving you an indication of what to expect when you contact them!
