Why Boat Owners in Lancing Choose Us

Lancing sits within West Sussex, and lancing is our home town — the workshop sits at Shoreham Airport on the western edge of Shoreham Harbour, which means Lancing berths get the fastest response times on the network. That's the working environment we know inside out.

Visiting Lancing berths week in, week out, we're not just yacht electricians — we're sailors who understand what reliability and safety mean at sea. Every fitting is completed to the top spec, fully documented, and backed by our professional guarantee. For Lancing-based vessels — particularly those at Lady Bee Marina — this is core work. That's the brief on each job we take on in and around Lady Bee Marina.

Vessels demand a different mindset to land-based wiring — corrosion, movement and water are constant adversaries, and the materials and techniques have to match.

We know which marinas have lift-out facilities, which require tender access, and which are walk-on — and plan callouts around it.

We approach each job the way we'd approach task on our own yachts: boat-grade tinned cable, proper crimps, double-clipped runs, and full continuity testing on completion.

The fleet ranges from classic wooden yachts to modern production cruisers — we've worked on most of them.

If a job requires more time or extra parts, we say so up front — never after the fact.

For vessel owners near Lady Bee Marina and Shoreham Harbour, insurance providers and yacht warranty schemes accept our certification as standard. Diagnostic equipment travels in the van as spec — insulation tester, clamp meters, scope, and reference data. We work alongside other trades routinely — engineers, riggers, painters — so multi-trade refits run smoothly.
