Happy Customers
Opua Boat Builders have done many jobs on our old wooden bridgedecker over the years including repairs, new deck and refurbishment. The most recent job was removing the rails and sanding and varnishing. They look perfect.
I highly recommend Opua Boatbuilders as their standards, knowledge and attention to detail is exceptional.

My wife Janet and I had wanted for an extended swim platform on our 40’ launch for some time. We feel fortunate to have connected with Graeme at Opua Boatbuilders for the job. Graeme and his team were very patient with us as they walked us though some possibilities. We ended up with a nice simple duckboard with a bait station, BBQ stand and a nice hidden ladder for reboarding from the water. Also included was nice flip away seat on the stern for Janet to fish from.
While on the Hardstand Opua boatbuilders were able to pull together a crew to refinish all the brightwork. They all worked tirelessly every time the sun came out and sometimes when it didn’t. Despite serious weather delays they got the job done in a timely manner.
Coordination between Graeme and the other contractors on the marina was very good. All the jobs came together without a lot of fuss. Everything is done now the boat looks great and works the way it should.
