Berthon Boatyard Yacht Paint Spraying Facilities

Berthon has the most modern yacht paint spraying facility in Europe. The 92ft x 36ft (28m x 11m) state of the art booth on Lymington River, Hampshire, is flanked by two similar size preparation booths to complement the UK's premier boatyard facility. It allows a dust-free spray paint finish every time.

At Berthon we mainly spray using Awlgrip or International Paint.

Air temperatures are continuously controlled in the boat painting facility, and - along with other parameters such as hull temperature and air humidity - are monitored and permanently recorded to ensure a top class paint finish and a complete history.

Click on the tab below to view the yachts that have been painted in our Spray Booth since we opened it in 1999.

Moody 64, WATERWITCH, Painted by Berthon, 2009

WATERWITCH

"We realize that if the boat had not been going to be painted we would have inherited all those jobs at some future date and no doubt some unskilled place!"
