West Solent Boat Builder Ltd

West Solent Boat Builders

Keyhaven, the most westerly harbour in the Solent, is the home of West Solent Boat Builders Ltd, a family run boatyard that has been catering for the needs of local yachtsmen and fishermen for over 40 years.
In addition to our local clientele we are pleased to welcome visiting yachtsmen and will make every effort to satisfy your requirements. This is a versatile yard capable of dealing with almost any problem that may beset the leisure sailor.
West Solent Boat Builders Limited has traded on this site for over 40 years and the fact that the present Managing Director was the senior founding partner lends a continuity rarely found in today’s world.
In the early years the business traded as a partnership with a significant interest in the building and fitting out of commercial fishing vessels and yachts up to 40’LOA. This work was carried out in addition to providing the usual range of repair and lay-up facilities to the local yachtsmen.
With the virtual demise of the inshore fishing industry in recent years, it was decided to cease building and to concentrate on providing owners of sailing yachts and power craft with a comprehensive, reliable and friendly service.
