Who we are
Reppos boat builders is a family owned and operated business that has been thriving since 1968. It deals mainly with the construction of wooden vessels of traditional and modern design.
A large segment of our activity involves the repair, alteration, reconstruction of all types of vessels and the restoration of traditional wooden and fiberglass boats that need experienced interventions and vast knowledge of traditional wooden shipbuilding. We also deal with the maintenance of vessels, with special wooden or metal construction and issuing of certification seaworthiness of yachts.
