Marine Services Limited is a working boat yard at Magħtab, on the north east side of Malta near Naxxar, with the sea close by. Set up in 1987, it caters for owners of power boats, RIBs and other craft who need somewhere to haul out, store over winter, repair or refit, and who would like one business to handle all of it.
For UK owners who keep a boat in Malta, or who are thinking of buying one, a local yard of this kind takes care of the practical side of ownership while you are away. It is listed on VisitMalta.co.uk under boat repair in Malta and marina services in Malta.
The yard promises peace of mind during lift, transport and launch, staff who are mariners at heart, and a one stop shop where accessories and consumables are on hand beside your boat. The aim is to save owners time and money by keeping everything in one place.
Lift, launch and storage
The yard has equipment and trained personnel for lifting and launching all types of vessel, plus transport. Its storage area holds small to medium sized power craft, including solid and RIB hulled boats of up to 30 feet, with space in both summer and winter.
Security is a selling point. The area is monitored round the clock by CCTV that is linked to the internet, so owners can check on their boat in real time from anywhere in the world. That suits owners who live in the UK for part of the year.
Boats can be hauled out for the winter and put back in the water before the season, with transport arranged if the boat needs to travel by road.
Repairs, refits and maintenance
The workshop handles wood and fibreglass repair and restoration, structural damage and alterations, gel coat repairs, osmosis treatment for fibre reinforced hulls, professional spray painting, teak deck renovation and laying, upholstery and woodwork. Mechanical work includes fitting and aligning inboard and outboard engines, servicing and winterisation of engines and generators, bow thruster fitting and electrical fault finding and overhaul, from helm screens and radar to batteries and water makers.
Routine maintenance covers polishing, teak cleaning, anodes, life raft servicing, engine room checks and antifouling. The yard advises antifouling roughly every 9 to 15 months, and every 9 to 12 months in Maltese waters, because leaving it longer lets growth foul the hull, risks corrosion, can cause engine overheating and raises fuel use. Boat survey and recommendations are available from trained staff.
Specialist repairs also include rigging and mast work, hydraulic systems, trim tabs, stabilisers, cranes, gangways and platforms, as well as stainless steel and aluminium works, joinery and inflatables, so a single yard can often handle a long refit list.
RIB repairs and supplies
RIB work ranges from minor patching to replacing sections of tube, and complete new tubes can be made to the dimensions of the old ones in Hypalon and bonded to the fibreglass hull. Faded or mouldy tubes can be repainted in a UV protective coating in a choice of colours, and the yard gives a quote before work begins.
A shop stocks anchors, ropes, fenders, fire extinguishers, life jackets, buoyancy aids, sound systems, spare parts and consumables for motor boats, sailing yachts and speed boats. The business also offers yacht registration, management and company formation, and our guide to financial services in Malta explains the wider sector.
