About Us

I’ve been boating and building boats since I was fourteen years old. After building several boats on my own, I worked for yacht builders in the Tampa Bay area including Watkins Yachts, Marine Trader International, Kiwi Racing, Windship Trident Shipworks and Intertrim Marine Fabrications.

Marine carpentry is my first love and I enjoy working with my clients from the yacht interior design stage through the completion of the custom yacht interior.

Bay Area Marine Service Inc. began in 1993 as a full service yacht repair company, using my extensive background in electrical, gelcoat and fiberglass, plastics fabrication, and interior and exterior marine carpentry.

Bay Area Marine Service Inc. provides warranty service for Sabre Yachts, Heritage East Yachts, Back Cove Yachts, Ocean Yacht and Ocean Alexander.

We solve problems. From where to put the washer and dryer, to building a new nav station or fabricating a custom boat accessory, we have a custom solution for you and your boat.

What sets Bay Area Marine Service, Inc. apart from its competitors?

Because there are always new possibilities in custom boat interiors, a yacht is never really “finished”. From the smallest items such as a teak wood towel bar, to an extra fold-down table for entertaining, to a complete interior refit, I strive to deliver exactly what my client wants.

My goal is to exceed your expectations.
