Overview
Nestled in the tranquil Thalang district of Phuket, G&T Boatyard stands as a testament to heritage, passion, and comprehensive marine service.
This family-run shipyard is built on the ancestral lands of its owner, Toi, who grew up amidst the familiar sights and sounds of hulls and rigging. This deep-rooted connection to the sea forms the foundation of a boatyard that offers not just repairs, but a genuine partnership for every sailor who moors there.
At the heart of G&T’s operation is the “One Stop Service” philosophy, a concept passionately championed by Toi and her partner, Claude, a globetrotting sailor from Luxembourg. This approach is designed to provide a seamless and all-encompassing solution for yacht maintenance and repair.
While the yard specializes in hull work—excelling in gelcoat repairs and antifouling applications, particularly for shallow-draft vessels and multihulls—its capabilities extend far beyond. The team has also expertly handled larger vessels, such as the impressive Prestige 500, proving their versatility.
To deliver on its one-stop promise, G&T Boatyard collaborates with a trusted network of qualified specialists who perform a vast array of on-site tasks. This curated network ensures that every aspect of your vessel receives expert attention. Services include the maintenance and repair of inboard and outboard engines, marine carpentry, intricate woodwork, and the installation of teak decks.
Furthermore, their partners handle everything related to fittings, sails, and rigging; overhaul complex electrical and electronic systems; and install or update navigation aids. If you need it done, you only need to ask—their motto is that if it’s possible, it will be done.
Beyond active repairs, G&T Boatyard is a trusted sanctuary for yachts needing secure wintering or long-term storage. Owners can depart with peace of mind, knowing their vessels rest safely on the holds.
The yard is watched 24 hours a day by a vigilant crew, assisted by an ever-watchful pair of guard dogs who ensure the grounds remain secure until it’s time to set sail again.
Perhaps one of the most invaluable aspects of their service is the expert administrative support offered to foreign-flagged yachts. Navigating the complexities of Thai maritime bureaucracy can be a daunting task for visiting skippers.
Toi and her team have mastered these procedures and are adept at finding efficient, legal solutions to any challenges that may arise, making the process stress-free. With staff fluent in Thai, English, French, and German, communication is never a barrier.
Complementing these services is the on-site “Yacht Supply” store, a well-stocked chandlery offering a wide arsenal of repair equipment, essential tools, and high-quality maintenance products. This convenience ensures that captains and crew can find everything they need without ever having to leave the yard.
Beyond its technical services, this Phuket boatyard has become, over the years, a genuine meeting point for sailors passing through. Skippers, cruisers and long-distance voyagers gather here to swap advice, stories and local tips before heading back out to sea.
This warm, welcoming atmosphere, nurtured by Toi and Claude, sets G&T Boatyard apart from the more impersonal yards in the region. Here, every client is welcomed as a full member of the wider sailing family.
