Cockwells build and restore beautiful bespoke wooden sailing and motor yachts.

Cockwell Classic Launches are renowned for their style and elegance; day launches, weekenders or superyacht tenders, each individually designed.

Cockwell Classic sailing yachts built as replicas or to a new design; Bristol Channel Pilot Cutters have been a favourite for us with their rugged sea keeping qualities and pleasing lines.

Whatever your choice we'll create a fine interior designed around your taste and lifestyle.

Individuals who come to Cockwells are looking for something different - we make sure they don't have to compromise.

Our traditional shipwright skills and passion for wood combined with state of the art engineering and modern wooden boat building techniques creates truly unique results. From clinker dinghies to luxury yachts every one is unique and meticulously finished.

"A wooden boat is a beautiful thing, when you leave one of ours moored in a marina, you'll always look back at it over your shoulder". Dave Cockwell, Owner.

If you are interested in a Cockwell's Classic Launch or Sailing Yacht call Dave on 01326 377366 for an initial consultation and to arrange a visit to our yard.
