Traditional Wooden Boat Building
At Stalham Marine Services Limited, we take pride in preserving the heritage of classic boatbuilding. Our traditional wooden boat building is led by Ben Knight, a skilled craftsman with over two decades of hands-on experience, having begun his trade at just 17.
Ben combines time-honoured techniques with a deep respect for materials and form, crafting and restoring vessels with precision, care, and authenticity. From clinker and carvel planking to bespoke joinery and varnish work, every project reflects a dedication to quality and tradition.
Whether you’re restoring a beloved Broads cruiser or commissioning a new build, we bring life back to wooden boats — the right way.
