About Skur Boats

WHO ARE WE?
Skur Boats was founded by Debbie Massey and Husband Colin based near Liskeard, in Cornwall in 2016.

From the beginning Debbie’s passion and goals was to bring back small boat building back to Cornwall. She has been involved with boats since 2003 when she bought and renovated her 9-ton Hillyard with her husband, since then Debbie has sailed around the south Coast of England, Guernsey and Brittaney, during this time she studied Marine Engineering at Southampton College.

Debbie spent several years in Chichester Marina doing general contracting and maintenance work on a number of different vessels before moving on to be employed at Beaucette Marina in Guernsey. Having returned to Cornwall, she is now the proprietor of Skur® Boats.

Environmental Considerations
The environment and protecting it, is a key concern for Skur Boats. Debbie and Colin are keeping up to date with all the latest in plant based epoxies to ensure that when these technologies advance they can be implemented into their boat building techniques.

All wood off cuts are recycled where possible and made in to bread boards and bird houses and more.
