At Roving Commissions, our shipwrights take pride in doing a proper job.

The majority of our work is concerned with wooden boats and, although we are mostly involved with traditional methods, we do not dismiss modern techniques and materials. On the contrary, everything has its place and we happily match the best of new technology and techniques with the best of the old and blend them according to the boat, her intended use and environment, to provide our owners with sound and seaworthy vessels which will last a lifetime.
