The Paint Booth
California's Premier Yacht Painting Facility
At Svendsen's Bay Marine, we believe your yacht deserves the best. With over 40 years of expertise, we've built a reputation as the trusted choice for achieving beautiful, long-lasting finishes. In June 2025, we took that commitment to the next level with a multi-million dollar expansion that has solidified our position as the top boatyard in California. This significant upgrade nearly doubled our yard space to five acres, allowing us to meet growing demand and handle larger, more complex projects than ever before.
California’s Only Dedicated Yacht Paint Booth
A cornerstone of this expansion is our new, state-of-the-art paint booth—the only facility in California built exclusively for yachts. This isn't just a space; it's a precision-engineered environment designed to deliver flawless results every time.
A Flawless Finish, Every Time
Our facility's environment is meticulously controlled to ensure a perfect coating. We maintain a consistent, ideal temperature, eliminating external factors like wind, rain, and cold that can compromise a finish. Our advanced ventilation system provides a continuous flow of clean air, removing contaminants to ensure a smoother, cleaner application and a superior result on the very first try. The superior lighting within the booth also allows for meticulous attention to detail during the entire process.
Designed for Excellence and Efficiency
Our spacious paint booth can accommodate yachts up to 75 feet long, ensuring we can provide an exceptional finish for a wide range of vessels. Beyond our paint booth, we've also added new buildings to house our expanded chandlery, engine shop, and metal and rig shops. All of these upgrades were designed to enhance your experience as a customer and improve the efficiency and comfort of our most valuable asset—our team.
Certified Excellence
Svendsen’s Bay Marine adheres to the highest standards in the industry, meeting all specifications set by the SSPC (Society for Protective Coatings). Our team is fully trained and certified, ensuring every project looks great and meets the most rigorous quality control standards. With our modern technology now complementing our decades of expertise, we ensure unmatched results for all aspects of your marine vessel repair.
