First established as a working boatyard with an engineering workshop and a few swinging moorings in the 1970’s, Ardfern Yacht Centre has been developed slowly over the years around an old pier. Originally used by puffers such as the ‘Brenda’ (see photo) for taking cattle and freight to and from the local Isles and isolated coastal villages on the West Coast, the Yacht Centre still uses that same p

ier today as a key link to the modern pontoon network. The early 1980’s saw investment made in the large boat shed, a slip and boat hoist, while the marina office and chandlery together with Walcon pontoons were all in place by the mid 1980’s. Since that time the workshop, hoist, winter storage area, offices, chandlery and pontoons have all been constantly improved and extended to provide the excellent facilities available at Ardfern Yacht Centre today.

There has been a lot of interest in the new eWincher2 - a compact and powerful electric winch handle ideally suited to all cruising & sailing yachts. We have just received a stock shipment of three eWinchers and we expect that they will be snapped up pretty quickly. If you are thinking this might be something to add to your Christmas list, pop into the chandlery for a wee shot of our demo model set up in store.
