Generations of Craftsmanship
Established in 1863, Wilson’s Boat Yard is one of Australia’s oldest continually operating boat building businesses.
Our team of highly skilled and experienced artisan craftsmen continue the tradition today, building and restoring timber boats on the shores of Port Cygnet in the Huon Valley of Tasmania.
Orders for our new designs (or yours) are currently being taken. If you would like to learn more about our work or to discuss a restoration project or new boat build, please contact us at any time.
Wooden Boat Specialists
In an age of speed and cheap materials, wooden boat building is an act of uncommon reverence.
It demands attention to detail, high-quality materials and persistence - and we relish the process.
Our approach marries time-honoured tradition with modern techniques, carrying the practice of wooden boat building into the future.
Visitors Welcome
Wilson’s Boat Yard operates an ‘open door’ policy, and we welcome all interested in this craft to visit our yard - but kindly request that you call in advance.
