Bay Ship & Yacht

Bay Ship & Yacht was founded in 1977 by Bill Elliott with a primary focus on the construction and repair of wooden ships. Bill traveled the country with his crew, instilling in them a deep respect for the sea and a passion for achieving the level of quality that ocean travel demands.  That passion endured as the company made the transition to repair and conversion of commercial and military vessels and superyachts. Today, the passion for quality anchors our mission to deliver absolute customer satisfaction.Bay Ship & Yacht's commitment to quality construction and repair is widely recognized throughout the commercial vessel community. That reputation is well-known to experienced owners who have made Bay Ship & Yacht their company of choice, and who recognize that the Bay Ship & Yacht experience has set the standard for others to follow.

Bay Ship & Yacht's quality management system guarantees that every project is able to meet the customer’s exacting standards. Each job is governed by a quality control checkpoint plan, which may include hundreds of individual inspections, affecting each of the 14 skilled craft departments and shops that make up our yard. The specialists in each craft use the QCCP to measure and examine work completed each day, and to judge whether it matches what was promised the customer. As our master checklist, the QCCP ensures that the right tasks are done at the right time, and in the right way.    The company’s quality assurance program was accepted by Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) in 2015, and achieved QP-1 certification by the Society for Protective Coatings in 2012At BSY we pride ourselves on providing the finest crew of experienced personnel, and the finest customer amenities in the ship construction and repair business.
