Our story

Where we started

Brightwork was founded on a simple belief: the standard of care reserved for the world's largest superyachts shouldn't be out of reach for owners who care just as much about a smaller boat. Our experience was built over seven years and three continents, aboard some of the world's finest superyachts — and we brought that same discipline home to the south coast.

We're deliberately small. You'll see the same faces every visit, not a rotating crew, because a service built on trust only works if the trust is real. Your yacht isn't a slot on a schedule to us — we look after her the way we'd want someone looking after our own.

Why owners choose us

Products and methods chosen for gelcoat, teak and stainless — nothing that shortcuts the finish.

Every visit checked against a fixed list and logged — planned care, not reactive cleaning.

A real relationship
