Boatyard Storage

Our Facilities

ABC Powermarine offer facilities for boat storage and hauling out in both the Boatyard and the North Yard at Gallows Point yard at competitive prices (see below). There is easy access to water and electricity, cards for which are available from the chandlery and the petrol station.

We use a modern Wise 14 tonne boat hoist for launching and recovery, capable of handling boats up to 40ft/12.5m length and 14ft/4.25m beam. We are also able to recover smaller vessels by tractor and trailer.

The slipway, situated in the boatyard, is tidal and may be accessed by boat approximately three hours either side of high water. It may be used free of charge by customers who have boats stored in the yard and there are rates for daily and week-long passes.

Please note that boat owners are reminded that boats left in the yard are at the owner's risk and that they should have appropriate insurance cover: ABC Powermarine can not be held liable for any damage or loss to any property stored in the yard.
