Philbrook's Services

Philbrook's Boatyard Limited is a diversified, full-service shipyard, equipped to handle multiple repair, conversion and new construction projects simultaneously. The shipyard has been in continuous operation since 1950 and its success may be attributed to its ability to quickly adapt to changing markets, and its capacity to respond to the needs of a sophisticated customer base. The boatyard is recognized for building elegant custom motor and sailing yachts, and has steadfastly kept abreast of new technologies, materials and manufacturing techniques in the shipbuilding industry.

A full line of industrial and marine products compliments Philbrook's services. The shipyard's two marine ways which accommodate most vessels (150 Tons or 130 Feet), and a complete line of support shops (i.e., machine, paint, metal, fibreglass, electrical, engineering, joinery, finishing and upholstery) form the backbone of the yard's facilities. These facilities combined with an experienced workforce of 80 skilled craftsmen, a dedicated management team and committed owner-directors have earned Philbrook's a reputation as one of the most capable shipyards in the Pacific Northwest.
