Classic 1965 Dorsett Restoration

1965 Dorsett Restoration

We recently took on a complete classic restoration of a 1965 Dorsett runabout. Over several decades of use, the hull and gelcoat had deteriorated significantly. Our team stripped the hull down, refit the transom and stringers, and applied a complete topcoat and custom gelcoat finish to bring this vintage boat back to showroom condition.


Awlgrip & Gelcoat Refinishing

Awlgrip Refinishing

Awlgrip and gelcoat refinishing require years of dedication, high precision, and patience. Whether repairing dock rash, small gelcoat gashes, or spraying a full hull with new Awlgrip topcoat, our craftsmen ensure a mirror finish that stands up to salt, sun, and season after season on the water.
