A Bold New Chapter Begins:

Drascombe Boats Ltd Partners with Character Boats Ltd

​

Drascombe Boats Ltd is thrilled to announce a dynamic new partnership that brings fresh energy, expertise, and opportunity to modern classic boatbuilding!

For years, Character Boats Ltd has crafted iconic vessels such as the Lytham Pilot, Post Boat, Coastal (in its many beloved forms), and the Dapper Dinghy—boats that have captured the spirit of classic sailing with timeless design.

Now, in an exciting evolution, Drascombe Boats Ltd will be partnering with the owner of the Character Boats range to carry this legacy forward. Under this new collaboration, we will:

• Build new Character Boats under license

• Offer expert repair and refurbishment services

• Supply genuine spares and accessories

• Integrate Character Boats into our trusted brokerage network

This exciting new division will operate as Hampshire Character Boats Ltd, blending heritage craftsmanship with Drascombe’s trusted reputation.
