Coxes Boat Yard

I was Surveying this lovely old classic day launch yesterday at Eric Bishops Yard in Barton Turf. Ive known Eric for a good few years now and hes also a fellow Boat Safety Examiner. Cox's boatyard has an enviable reputation for its knowledge and expertise in the field of boat restoration. Each member of thier team has worked in the industry for many years and collectively they have undertaken major restoration projects on both classic wooden boats as well as more modern GRP designs. Over the years, they have restored a wide range of boats from all across the UK, bringing them back to their original glory. Click this link to see some of thier recent projects.
