Marine renovation
1930s Yacht
Projects > 1930s Yacht
Using rare woods reclaimed from Liverpool’s Victorian docks, as well as Burmese Teak, Ancient English Yew and Wild Walnut this luxury motorised yacht was expertly restored beyond its 1930s former glory.
Reclaimed Beauty
Sustainability & authenticity
Reclaimed timber was the material of choice for this marine project. This 1930s yacht benefits from the sustainability and authenticity reclaimed wood provides. Each piece carries a patina that cannot be replicated. Years of use make it stable and reliable. Reclaimed wood is repairable, enduring and responsible. It is the ideal choice for designs that honour heritage and deliver lasting performance.
Exceptional Durability
Reclaimed Burmese Teak
Burmese teak is among the world’s most prized timbers. Its dense grain and natural oils give it remarkable strength and resistance to moisture. The golden-brown surface deepens with age, developing a patina of rare beauty. This combination of durability and elegance has made it the benchmark for luxury wood design.
In this restoration, Burmese teak was chosen for its proven performance. The timber’s distinctive grain and wide spectrum of tones, from deep browns to pale vanilla, create natural harmony. Its history is equally significant, having been widely used in Victorian Britain for fine joinery, swimming baths and boat building, where entire vessels were crafted from this enduring material.
Today, Burmese teak continues to be sought after for exceptional projects worldwide. Its unique character and enduring stability make it the ideal choice for interiors that demand both heritage and longevity. Whether at sea or on land, it remains a symbol of strength, beauty and prestige.
“Sailing on reclaimed wood gives this yacht a soul. Its history is felt in every detail, with strength and elegance that belong on the open water.”
