The Harbourmaster at Y Felinheli - our home port - c. 1904
We make dreams come true....... For anyone who can imagine being propelled nearly silently across sun-dappled water - accompanied by the unmistakable smell of a coal-burner the Steam Launch is a thing of wonder and magic.
We provide the enthusiast with the means to own such a rare and wonderful craft....
Plans, Boilers, Engines, Hulls, completed boats and Trailers can all be provided ....
WELCOME
The Traditional Boat Shop is owned and run by Glyn Lancaster Jones - a well known figure in Steam Boat circles, who has been building Steam Boats for over twenty years. All the work including boiler construction is carried out in-house by Mr Jones.
We are located in Y Felinheli (Port Dinorwic) - a picturesque village where traditional boats have been built for over 100 years - ideally situated on the Menai Straits.
We offer a highly competitive service, but our quoted prices can be subject to change with fluctuating materials costs, so we provide firm written quotations in advance of the commencement of work ...
