Frecheville Heaney Boatbuilders: Crafting Excellence on the Gippsland Lakes

Frecheville Heaney Boatbuilders, where our passion for boats runs deep. Our story began with a rich history of boatbuilding in the Gippsland Lakes. In 1990, I started a small boat repair business in Paynesville. By 1997, Tim Heaney joined me, bringing his expertise and craftsmanship. Together, we established Frecheville Heaney Boatbuilders in 2003, and our reputation for excellence has grown ever since.

We are committed to maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship. Our workshop is small but bustling with activity. We take pride in building new boats that meet the unique needs of our clients. Additionally, we specialise in salvaging maritime treasures, breathing new life into cherished vessels. Each project reflects our dedication to quality and our love for the craft.

The legacy of commercial shipbuilding on the Gippsland Lakes may have faded, but we carry that rich history forward. We believe that every boat we build or restore tells a story. Our skilled team works diligently to preserve this maritime heritage while delivering top-notch services to our customers.
