Can We Accommodate Your Vessel?

Our facility is located at Steelpointe Harbor, a premier waterfront destination featuring a deep-water port with direct access to Long Island Sound. Conveniently located off I-95, our facility is home to a 700-ton, 200-ton, and 75-ton Marine Travelift. Hornblower Marine is a state-of-the-art shipyard with convenient access to New York City, Long Island, and Newport, Rhode Island.

Our shipyard is proud to service some of the world’s finest vessels, and can accommodate most crafts from 40′ to 190′, powerboats and sailing yachts alike, including members of the Royal Ocean Racing Club.

Security of your vessel is our top priority. Hornblower Marine offers a fenced in yard and 24/7 in-person security, all year long. For owners that might prefer indoor storage, we also offer a climate-controlled building. All storage is quoted based on vessel dimensions, handling requirements, indoor or outdoor placement, requested dates and the approved work scope (if relevant). Submit the vessel particulars and our Yachts team will review fit, availability and next steps.
