Bespoke boat-maintenance marquee.

Windermere, Lake DistrictMarine & commercial

A boatbuilding yard at Windermere needed covered space so boats could be maintained when the weather turned. UK Event Structures custom-made a marquee with a 4.8 m eave height to give the boats the headroom they required.

The brief started with the vessels and the space needed to work on them. We manufactured the structure to the required height, with a clearspan interior free of central support posts and an open front for access to the boats and the surrounding yard.

The finished PVC-covered marquee provided shelter for maintenance work in bad weather. The photographs below show the bespoke aluminium frame during installation, the completed workspace and its position within the working boatyard.
