Our reputation relies on the fact that we only build quality vessels designed to be reliable over long periods, which are quick and easy to maintain.
We listen to what our client is intending to achieve and design a boat to deliver that specific requirement.
Customers value our attention to detail and the savings our thorough work produces for them over the lifetime of a vessel.
Through close relationships with our clientele and extensive studies into their working conditions, operator necessities, sea state and the latest technology available, we have successfully designed and built vessels for many professional and leading associations.
One of our most significant developments is providing bespoke designs and end products for our clients using temporary tooling.
Temporary tooling enables Goodchild Marine to build a vessel the size and width of your harbour needs.
It was developed and designed in-house by our experienced design and management team.
There is total flexibility in the design without having the constraints of a permanent moulding tool.
Goodchild Marine operates on a family ethos and have two husband and wife teams at the helm.
The business is owned by Alan Goodchild and his wife Sue, who came on board in 1989 as a company director.
General manager Steve Pierce joined in 1999 and his wife Lisa became office manager in 2002.
The latest addition to our management team is Tony Birr, who is providing us with his expertise in business development.
