Haul & Launch

Heavy gear, tight turns.

Our yard crew runs a 55-ton Travelift, a 30-ton all-terrain hoist, two hydraulic trailers, a self-propelled trailer, a fork truck and a modified Ford 450 we call Shortie. Boats up to 75′ are hauled and launched at the Burr Brothers marina, and moved from shed to shop and in and out of storage.

How we operate: every customer gets a Customer Representative who is accountable for the boat being delivered as specified. At the end of the season, leave us your keys.

About Us

Since 1947, there has been only one way to follow the details.

Accountability matters. Trust is essential. Burr Brothers provides premium care and maintenance for about 300 yachts, with a team of roughly 40 full-time technicians — mechanics, painters, electronics technicians, carpenters, fiberglass repairers, riggers and a yard crew — available year round or for transient service.

Concierge service helps families log more time on their vessels: ask about cruise prep, packaged meals at the dock, and even car detailing.
