In the bay of Marseille, the Chantier Naval de Provence (at the entrance of the Etang de Berre in Port-de-Bouc), offers you the possibility to carry out all work on your boat, even the largest. In addition to handling equipment, this site offers all the skills for a complete refit.
Open since 2016, the Chantier Naval de Provence fills a gap in the service offer on the Mediterranean coast. Indeed, boat owners can on the one hand take advantage of the cranes in the harbours for small boats or on the other hand find offers for very large yachts. But nothing existed for boats between 20 and 30 m.
A 10-metre wide dock!
100 tons, 35 meters long and 10 meters wide. Here are a few figures on the lifting possibilities of the Chantier Naval de Provence. The width of the hold is quite exceptional. Rare are the places where you can get out of such wide boats. With a width of 10 m, the yard can handle large catamarans (up to the Lagoon 620 for example). Owners of multihulls will be particularly interested.
But the yard is not limited to pleasure boats only, as it also deals with professional boats.
An offer for catamarans
With the characteristics of its dock, Chantier Naval de Provence has developed a specific service offer for catamarans. Under the Easycata label, the shipyard proposes to take full charge of the boat all year round. An offer which has a beautiful echo within the world of multihulls.
Maintenance competence
The Chantier Naval de Provence does not limit itself to lifting, chocking and wintering. Rather, it is intended to manage complete maintenance projects (carrying out "project management"). The site already has in-house skills (painting, mechanics...), but leaves the door open to other professionals if it brings in new skills.
In addition to storage on land, this yard benefits from 130 m of quay to start or finish a construction site, leaving the boat afloat.
Very competitive rates
The Chantier Naval de Provence wants to break with the usual habits of the coast. By charging less than 30% compared to the Alpes Maritimes, by letting the professionals work on the site without charging them and with a quality service (closed enclosure, video surveillance, wifi...), the Chantier Naval de Provence attracts a lot of attention from owners of boats under 30 m.
An ideal situation
The location of the Chantier Naval de Provence is very convenient with the SNCF railway station at 5 minutes on foot, with the airport or the city centre of Marseille at 30 minutes by car, this secure site is ideal for work on your boat.
