There are also several smaller builders down that way.

CPC Boatworks, Gosling Dinghycraft and specialised marine (Chris Turner) are 3 that spring to mind. May be worth looking for them. They are all around the Exeter/Lyme Bay area I believe.

Hi Olly 4088,

You don't say what qualifications you have or exactly what you want to do. You could consider going on a course at such a place as the Boatbuilding Academy at Lyme Regis where you could pick up some skills and qualifications and maybe make some contacts.   Take a look at:

http://www.boatbuildingacademy.com/

You could also consider working for a sail maker.

Well there is Wet and Windy just off Winterstoke Road in Bristol, there are several boat builders in the marinas in bristol (The Co-op company, IC Composites and David Abels), and there is Boat Repair Centre in Kenn, Clevedon. I think there is a chandlery on St. Andrews Road, Bristol and there is also force 4 Chandlery in Hanover Place!!!! Asleep yet?!!!!

If you go on www.boatsandoutboards.com they have a long list of chandlers and schools that might be near you too!!
