Cockwells Modern and Classic Boatbuilding

A Traditional Boatyard in a Modern World.

Cockwells custom-build and restore beautiful classic yachts, launches and superyacht tenders. Each boat is individually designed and built to suit the owner’s exact requirements.

Our vast knowledge and respect for traditional shipwright skills combined with advanced engineering and modern boatbuilding techniques enables us to create outstanding leisure and commercial vessels. Each one built to the standards of relevant bodies and ideal for the modern world.

In construction we utilise high-tech composites as well as wood. We maintain all the style and class associated with a traditional yacht. Where preferred, we combine this with the use of modern materials and techniques to increase durability and reduce maintenance. From superyacht tenders to luxury yachts each one is unique and meticulously finished.

In days gone by, people could go direct to almost any boatyard and commission the boat of their choice. Our mission is to bring back this service to those who appreciate fine vessels and a high level of craftsmanship.

People who come to Cockwells are looking for something different. We make sure they do not have to compromise.
