History
In the mid-1990's Bradford's management realized that
it would have to upgrade its facilities to accommodate the fast growing
luxury Mega-Yacht fleet. In order to maintain its reputation as the
premier yacht refit and repair company, Bradford took the big step
of opening a new satellite facility in the Bahamas.
This new deep water yard offers all the services that
can be found at Bradford Marine Fort Lauderdale, and uses a 1,200
ton floating dry dock to haul out vessels up to 230 feet, with no
overhead restrictions. For smaller projects the yard has also a 150
ton TraveLift.
The company also plans to develop 20 acres of its land
to build individual Mega-Yacht shelters --> to accommodate yachts
up to 420 feet in length. It will include working and storage space
as well as overnight crew accommodations. Inquires are invited.

A
Vision for the Mega-Yachting World

Some words about her sister company:
Founded in 1967, Bradford made the first of many
farsighted choices when it opted to install the 300 ton Synchrolift. At the
time the machinery was considered to be far larger than business demanded.
But, starting with the 130 feet Fontainebleau II in 1967, the yard
has since hauled out hundreds of the world's finest yachts.
The yard is the WORLD'S LARGEST UNDERCOVER YACHT REPAIR
FACILITY. The covered slips can handle vessels up to 180 feet LOA
and 45 feet in height. The total of 11,000 linear feet of slips and service
bays means that no matter the weather, Bradford can always deliver its repairs
on time, as well as provide long term covered storage.
With over 40 years of experience, Bradford Marine will keep on making history!
