Boat Yard Services

 

Haul & Launch

Bobby’s Marina operates Two Marine Travel lifts, accommodating anything from your day sailor or small fishing boat to large catamarans and 100+ ft yachts. Our convenient location outside of the Simpson Bay lagoon, ensures no bridge entries or close quarter maneuvering to reach our facility. Our proximity to the cargo terminal makes us a popular choice for launching vessels shipped to St. Maarten’s port facility. We are a quick truck delivery down the road to launch your boat and be on your way. 

 

Mast up- Mast Down

Bobby’s marina are specialized in taking down, storing and putting up masts. With our team of experienced sailors on site, we know what it takes to secure your rig. We can also offer our assistance in sourcing parts, hardware or riggers for all those tricky jobs aloft. 

 

Storage and working haul outs

We can accommodate both long term and hurricane storage for your vessels. To secure hurricane storage space, a 3 month deposit is required. This ensures that regardless of your eventual haul out date, your boat is guaranteed a spot to ride out the storm.

We can also accommodate short term or “lay day” haul outs to facilitate repairs and surveys.
