Endeavour Quay was established in 2005 after taking over the premises previously occupied by Camper & Nicholsons. The site is steeped in history, having had a boatyard located on the site since the 1790s.  

Notable yachts built at the quay include 396-ton Pioneer, built in the early 20th century, which was the world’s first large motor yacht. The America’s Cup campaigns of 1930, 1934 and 1937 brought global attention, with the design and build of several J-class yachts including Shamrock V, Velsheda, Endeavour and Endeavour II. 

The yard was refurbished in 2006 and brought into the 21st century. Many of the former workshops were converted during the modernisation and are now home to marine-related businesses, including ours.
