American Custom Yachts (ACY), located on the Atlantic coast of Florida on the St. Lucie River, has become well known over the years for turning out beautiful custom cold-molded sportfishing boats. But that is only half the story as the ACY marine yard also tailors to a great number of repairs, repowers and refits on boats ranging from mid-size center console and sport fishing boats up to cruising yachts over 100 feet (30m) in length.
When it comes to custom construction, ACY handles every aspect in-house from the beginnings of planking the hull through to interior finishing along with coatings and paint work. When a boat visits the yard for repairs and paint jobs, ACY turns them over to one of their experts, such as Eagle Marine, located on-site. While some marine service companies try to be the jack of all trades, Eagle Marine has honed in on the specifics of fiberglass and gel coat repair along with paint repair, hull and topside repaints as well as bottom painting. This direct focus has driven the Eagle Marine team to be an expert in their field, turning out beautiful results on many boats that come through the yard.

Falcon – Continental Yachts
Since 1968, Wim van der Valk Continental Yachts has built a rich heritage for both steel and aluminum motor yachts. With a great passion for boating, constant innovation and quality improvements with every vessel, the company is recognized as a respected and prominent Dutch shipyard.
Unlike many others, Continental Yachts are completely built in-house. So applying the complete ALEXSEAL® paint system, building and welding the hull, interior appointments, electronics installations, etc. are all done by their own exceptional team of people. This unique approach provides a great advantage during the build period, but it also means that they can offer their customers the best possible after-sales service.
