Commercial Boat Services was established in 1995 to provide assistance to individuals or organisations with access to the marine environment through our range of craft and our qualified Master Mariners and crew. We specialise in the inland environment where we have great experience with fast flowing rivers and estuaries and where access is normally difficult.
We also act as contractors to British Waterways are familiar with the sensitive nature of the canal network.
We have a boatyard & slipway facilities (up to 60 tonnes) in York. We undertake construction and repair of all types of craft, specialising in steel fabrications.
