Boat builders based at Saul junction in Gloustershire. A good source for
secondhand Kelvin spares and other vintage marine engines. They also have a
number of other complete vintage engines for sale. They have been building boats
for many years, building both narrow and wide beam.

This is one of my best contacts. The web site is a good knowledge base for
anyone wanting to find out more about Kelvin engines. It covers all of the vintage
Kelvin engines up to the more modern work horses. Like my own web site this
web site continues to grow regularly, so it is worth checking the site every so
often. The site also contains information on the Kelvin car.
Keep up the good work

When looking for a boat builder, I was very impressed by Mel. His standard
of work and attention to detail was second to none. He can build a boat to your
specification and is able to meet some of the more unusual requests, such a
motor bike ramps.

Before I moved to Belfast in June 2003, I used this small family run business to manufacture many of my new J spares. They have produced many parts that have not been made by Kelvin for years. They are very professional company and no job is to much trouble. It would be worth travelling a distance to get new parts made.
