Ongoing care for significant boats.
A major restoration is only one part of a boat’s life. Brookes can continue to support owners with planned maintenance, technical advice and future work so that small jobs are dealt with before they become major projects.
Plan care around the boat
Work can be planned around the boat, the season and the owner’s use. Structure, paint and varnish, rig, deck, systems, joinery and the items identified during regular inspection can be addressed as a coherent programme.
Keep routine work deliberate
Maintenance can be scheduled around the boat and the sailing season so that necessary work is handled before it interrupts use.
Identify larger jobs early
Larger jobs can be identified early, investigated properly and scheduled rather than becoming emergency repairs. The aim is to keep the boat reliable and available for the sailing the owner bought her to do.
Keep the project knowledge
For boats Brookes knows well, ongoing care also preserves project knowledge and makes later decisions easier because the history of the work is not lost between refits.
