Hello guys
Few of you might know I work at Hamble yacht services and I have been trying to sort out a good rate for us normal small boat owners.
So what we are now doing is a lift out on our dry stack fork lift, 24h ashore with scrub off and launch off for £100+vat.
To qualify for this rate you must be 23 foot/7 meter or less.
A fast fishing boat, cruiser or rib and a be suitable for fork lift and cradles. (Arvors fit no problem)
Sorry no yachts, and full displacement hulls will be at managements decision as some hulls don't suit the fork lift. and management make final decision on all lifts and suitability.
This rate is generally for weekends, but it will be possible in quite times of the year for lifts to be done during the week.
So in this 24h time you should be able to carry out all the general maintenance like antifouling and anodes, maybe sneak a polish in too. best of all the there is a pub 150yrds away (banana wharf).....lol
Extra time can be arranged if needed on request.
We have electric(@£2.75+vat per day) and water(free). Plus if required we have a fully skilled marine engineers (Nanni,Vovlv,Yanmar and more), boat builders (wood and GRP), welders, riggers and painter (@ £40- £48 per hour +vat) . we also can also lift engines in/out on our crane. these extra services will need booking in advance and storage is free while work is been carried out by us.
if you have any worrys about a fork lift lifting your boat out, have no fear. we do 1000's a year and have a large dry stack racking system. I even fork lift my own boat.
this big fork lift can lift up to 5 ton depending on weight distribution and has had 35 foot ribs on it. if your interested or want to make a booking please call and ask for myself (john quirk) or lee pollock on 02380 454111 and leave a message if im not available or drop me a email on engineering@hambleyachtservices.co.uk . alternatively you can drop me a message on here and il give you a call and book you in.
if you have a larger boat please call for prices and availability

hope that this deal might help some of you guys
