Specialist catamaran electrical work in Hayling Island — dual-hull setups, solar arrays, and lithium energy independence. Trusted by Hayling Island boat skippers for over a decade.
Hayling Island sits within Hampshire, and hayling Island is a boating paradise with Northney Marina, Sparkes Marina and an active sailing community. We provide all-round marine wiring expertise to craft owners across the island, from basic remedies to full Victron energy setup fittings. It shapes the kind of task we do here every week.
Working on vessels across Hayling Island day in, day out — catamarans present unique wiring challenges — dual hulls mean more cable runs, larger deck areas mean more solar potential, and the cruising lifestyle demands energy independence. We have extensive track record with catamarans in Hayling Island including Lagoon, Fountaine Pajot, Leopard, and Bali models. In practice, that's the work we do most weeks at Northney Marina. That ethos is what brings Hayling Island skippers back to us, year after year.
