With the acquisition of this 88-ton lift, Tiffany Yachts will be able to service larger vessels.

The additional capacity and length of the 88-ton lift will expand the size of power and sail vessels that Tiffany Yachts can service, said president Randy Cockrell.  The 88-ton lift can accommodate up to a 20-foot beam and 10-foot water depth.

 Rebounding from a devastating fire in February 2010, Tiffany Yachts has constructed a modern, efficient facility with three bays accessed by the travel lift, said Cockrell. Each bay can accommodate vessels up to 80 feet in length and 35 feet in height. The building also features a cabinet shop with new Powermatic Woodworking Machines, a ships store with an extensive inventory of marine supplies, offices, and full service restrooms for transients.

“The fire was quite a blow to the family business, but now with the new building and a larger travelift we can accommodate bigger projects and work more efficiently,” said Cockrell.

 Tiffany’s boat house and working slip can accommodate vessels to 80 feet with a 30-foot beam, he said.

Utilizing a 5 axis CNC router, Tiffany craftsmen can do custom molds and intricate woodwork with precision, added Cockrell. The interior design shop can design and fabricate custom interiors and superior canvas work.

Tiffany also is an authorized installer of 4U2Sea enclosures including Cool2Sea acrylic.

 The Tiffany craftsmen specialize in quality woodwork combining time-proven methods with modern products, he said.  The experience gained in building custom yachts allows the Tiffany crew to tackle difficult repairs.  

Tiffany Yachts on the Great Wicomico River at Glebe Point operates as a full service repair yard and boat builder equipped to handle any project, including the sale or purchase of used vessels.  For details regarding available services, visit tiffanyyachts.com.
