Boat Building
 
 
     

Operating as boatbuilders on the tidal Thames, Richmond Bridge Boathouses are proud of their reputation as specialists in the building of traditional wooden craft. Projects have ranged from PICCOLO a twelve-foot canoe to the LADY MAYORESS a 42-ft shallop for the Coy. of Watermen and Lightermen.

Craft have included Thames camping and racing skiffs, pleasure and racing punts, electric canoes, small launches, sail boats, whiffs, shallops and a Thames wherry.

We have also in co-operation with "The Great River Race" designed and build 4 and 6 oared recreational racing cutters. These are available in traditional wood and G.R.P. In all 21 have been built so far and are raced at several new events on the Thames in London culminating in the 23 mile Great River Race in September.

We are always happy to discuss your specific requirements.
