Our most recent project
One of our recent projects involved a 6.5-metre pilothouse vessel that broke free from its mooring and was washed onto the rocks. Our team successfully recovered the boat and transported it back to Ash Marine for repairs.
Once in our workshop, the vessel was removed from the trailer and all damaged areas were carefully ground back to the original fiberglass in preparation for restoration.
Multiple layers of Lloyd’s Register–approved resins and fiberglass were applied, then carefully faired and sanded to prepare the surface for the final gelcoat application. The rubbing strake was removed and replaced to restore both protection and appearance.
Our RIB tube specialists are on hand to advise, refurbish, and repair damaged Hypalon tubes, ensuring durability, safety, and a high-quality finish.
ANTIFOULING
All Antifouling is undertaken in our large heated workshop allowing application throughout the winter.
We can antifoul from new, which require removing the boat from the trailer, tape the pre-assessed water line. We then key the gelcoat, apply Hemple below the water line primer and leave for 24hr cure. we apply the first coat of Antifouling, once the top coat has cured the second coat is applied.
Ash Marine’s re-antifoul service also can include a hull scrape. This will remove old barnacle and mussels alike then a Coat of Hemple antifouling
is applied.
DETAILING
With our brokerage service we have gained huge experience and knowledge of the most effect cleaning materials on the market. This means the best results.
Ash Marine offer a cutting and polishing service that will return your boat to a nearly new shine. A layer of hard wax is then applied to protect the Gelcote for the future.
The interior detailing requires our wet and dry vacuum to remove as much moisture from the upholstery and carpets preventing the future growth of mould and mildew. Our cleaning products are very effective and will result in a clean smelling fresh looking interior boat.
