From our home in Norway, Helly Hansen has been making professional grade gear to help people stay and feel alive for more than 140 years. It all started in 1877 when sea captain Helly Juell Hansen found a better way to stay protected from the harsh Norwegian elements. Soon thereafter, Captain Hansen and his wife Margrethe launched a business producing waterproof oilskin jackets, trousers, sou’westers and tarpaulins made from coarse linen soaked in linseed oil – and the legend was born!

Specialist in archaeological reproduction of hand forged wrought ironwork fittings and tools for period vessels.

I think its safe to say we like boats, we seem to spend a lot of our time in, around or out on them. Boats are one of the oldest forms of human transport, and there is something about them that captures the hearts of many.

We are proud to be a family owned business that has been serving the Solent since 1935. We have generations of experience providing expert boat repairs, osmosis treatments, winter boat storage and marina berths.

With so many years on the water, we have learned to change with the times, embracing the latest technology and techniques for boat repairs, but keeping some things the same - like pride in our work and a commitment to our customers.
