Dewees Boat Yard

Renewal of the Skiff

Using historic precedence and in a cost saving exercise we set up our own boat yard on Dewees recently.


After 8 years the supply skiff ( Sea Ark) for the island needed renovation .



Corrosion had affected the keel and it needed to be replaced.


Dewees Staff Ryan , Robbie and Terry grind down the boat to get to good metal for welding .


The boat is currently off the island after being re-welded at a total cost for the project of $1537 . Saving the POA $8,463 over the cost of a new commercial Sea-Ark.

We will repaint the boat when we receive the paint shipment, then the boat should be good for another 8 years.
