Boat Repairs
We are specialists when it comes to repairing damage to all types of water craft. If damaged, we will repair your boat proffessionally. You will not be able to see a difference between undamaged and repaired areas once we have completed a job. Your boat will be as good as new. No job is too big or too small.

Manten Marina run a professional Yacht and Powerboat transport service countrywide. We have a specialised custom built rig and trailer that can carry most craft. We can provide individually customised options for every vessel transported. We transport abnormal loads with height or width restrictions professionally and with ease. All vessels treated as if they were our own with a fine attention to detail and the ultimate safety of the vessels. Transit Insurance can also be arranged for transit trips.
Some of our destinations we have delivered boats to, include: Durban, Richards Bay, Cape Town, Mossel Bay, East London, Langebaan, Walvis Bay and Mocambique.

Boat Salvage
"Help, my boat has sunk!
Oh my goodness, my boat has broken its mooring and landed up on shore!
My motor has dropped overboard!"
Accidents happen! When in need, call Manten Marina. We specialise in craft recovery. We have the expertise to help you no matter what your problem.
To date, we have located an aeroplane that had crashed and sunk in the dam. Once located, our divers attached the plane to our recovery unit and our team hoisted the plane up from a depth of 25 meters. It was then towed to shore and lifted out of the water.
We have rescued and or salvaged many yachts and powerboats. Some of them have been badly damaged or holed. All have been successfully recovered.
Boat Insurance
Boats are vulnerable in storms due to lightning, excessive waves, mooring breakages or equipment failure on the boat. Collisions at sea or even running aground can cause expensive damage. Due to the cost of new replacement masts, sails and motors, it is vital that boat owners check that the Total Sum Insured (TSI) for their boat is adequate. The value of your yacht should be approximately 1.5 times the current market value in order for replacement items to be adequately covered. Don’t be caught underinsured.
