Boat maintenance, refit and repairs in Manly, handled with thoughtfulness, respect & care
For vessels at Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, Manly Marina and across Brisbane, Southeast Queensland, we begin with a personalised approach with the boat in front of us and not a one-size-fits-all package. That applies whether you are planning a routine haul-out, preparing for a season on the water or dealing with an unexpected repair.
01
Antifouling
Preparation and application planned around your vessel, usage and haul-out window.
02
Propspeed & running gear
Careful preparation and coating of propellers and underwater metals using the selected product system.
03
Boat polishing & presentation
Hull and topside care to restore a clean, well-kept finish and help protect the surfaces beneath.
04
Shipwright repairs
Teak decking, practical timber, composite and general vessel repairs, assessed properly before work begins.
05
Boat maintenance & coordination
Planned maintenance with mechanical, electrical, rigging and specialist trades coordinated where required.
06
Inspections & project scoping
A straightforward initial look, with detailed reports and specialist assessment available for larger scopes.
Need something else? Tell us what is happening with your boat. If the work calls for another specialist, we can help coordinate the right trade.
- THE ON-SITE DIFFERENCE
Close enough to respond. Accountable & involved.
Being based at Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron means your first conversation, inspection and next step can happen where your boat already is. You deal directly with Marxcraft, with a clear line of responsibility from the initial look through to completion.
- Approved contractor and on-site presence at Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron
- Direct access for on-site enquiries and project conversations
- Clear scope, communication and variation approval available
- One point of coordination across supporting marine trades
- A STRAIGHTFORWARD WAY FORWARD
From first look to back on the water.
Start a conversation
Call, email or send the vessel details below. Urgent situations can be prioritised for a prompt site visit.
Inspect & define
A basic initial inspection is free. Larger scopes, insurance matters or formal reports are quoted separately and credited if the related work proceeds.
Plan the work
We can coordinate the haul-out or work with your existing booking, then agree the scope, pricing approach and communication preferences.
Complete & hand back
Work is completed with product-system requirements observed, specialists coordinated where needed, and the vessel returned ready for its next chapter.
- WHEN THE PROJECT GROWS
Local access to Marxcraft’s larger refit capability.
Some projects begin as a repair or maintenance conversation. Others develop into a larger refit scope. Through Marxcraft’s 1,000 m² Hemmant operations at The Yard Brisbane, we can support more substantial marine interiors, fit-outs, refits and vessels beyond the practical capacity of the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron facility.

- A STRAIGHTFORWARD WAY FORWARD
Before we get started.
If you are unsure whether the work fits Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, please call us to discuss. Marxcraft can assess the vessel and direct the project to the right facility.
No. Marxcraft's Marine Services at Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron welcomes Squadron members, visiting boat owners and non-members.
Yes. We can help coordinate the lift and hardstand process, or work with a booking you have already made directly with Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron.
We will assess the work and, where appropriate, coordinate delivery through Marxcraft’s nearby Hemmant operations at The Yard Brisbane. That gives owners a practical pathway from local service to larger refit capability.
Depending on the scope, we can work on an hourly basis, provide an estimate after inspection, or agree a defined package. Any assumptions and likely variations are discussed before work proceeds.
Yes. Let us know at the start if you would like written scopes, progress photographs and variation approvals built into the communication plan.
