Built by someone who's been offshore

Starboard Marine was founded on a simple premise: yacht owners deserve a management partner who actually understands their vessel โ€” not just as an asset to be scheduled, but as a machine that has to perform when it matters.

Our principal comes from a background as a working boat captain, with hands-on experience across marine mechanical systems, electrical work, and offshore passages. That experience is what we bring to every managed vessel account.

We're based in Bristol, Rhode Island โ€” in the heart of Narragansett Bay โ€” and serve owners throughout coastal New England and beyond.

We will not depart in conditions we wouldn't be comfortable with ourselves โ€” and we'll tell you exactly why, if we make that call.

  • Pre-departure systems survey before every passage
  • Professional weather routing, departure timing optimized
  • Daily owner position updates โ€” you always know where your boat is
  • Full post-delivery condition report
  • Written contract with clear terms on weather delays & expenses

Let's talk about your vessel

We typically begin with an informal call โ€” no obligations. Tell us about your boat and what's not working. If we're a good fit, we'll schedule a vessel walk within the week.
