Matt MathewsService ManagerHi, I'm Matt, the service manager here at Snead Island Boat Works. We've been a family-owned and operated company since 1936, and I'm proud to continue the tradition of quality work and personal attention that has made us one of the best boat yards on the Gulf coast for more than 80 years.

Basin & Storage
Snead Island Boat Works offers slips in its well-protected basin and dry storage on-site.
Our well-protected basin is a great location to store your boat. Easy to access, with great depth, we're able to accommodate boats up to 70 feet in length drawing up to 8 feet. Our facility features showers and bathrooms and on-site security, so you can access your boat anytime, day or night. Unfortunately, we do not allow liveaboards in the marina.
Dry storage to withstand the summer's storms
Boats stored in dry storage are blocked and secured to four foot ground anchors with straps rated to withstand hurricane-force winds. When you store your boat at Snead Island for the hurricane season, you can rest assured that it is as safe as it can be on the Florida Coast.
