BoatCraft Pacific

Boatcraft Pacific is a Queensland-based boatbuilding supplier and small manufacturer operating from Loganholme. The company produces and sells a range of epoxy and polyurethane products formulated for boatbuilding, repair and woodworking, and supplies many of the materials a home builder or workshop needs to maintain or refit small craft.

What sailors will find here

• Epoxy resins, hardeners, fairing compounds and specialist fillers aimed at wooden boat construction and fibreglass repair.
• Adhesives and polyurethane glues in several cure-speed formulations for joinery and structural repairs.
• Paints and coatings, including two-pack water-based polyurethanes, non-skid deck paints and products aimed at fouling control and surface preparation.
• Basic consumables and hardware commonly used in refits: plywood (clear hoop pine), fibreglass and composite reinforcement fabrics, bronze fastenings, abrasives, brushes and rollers.

Manufacturing and specialist lines

Boatcraft promotes a selection of Australian-made formulations from its own factory and lists several branded or specialist items used by boatbuilders. The website identifies Boatcraft as the Australian agent for System Three epoxy products and describes in-house ranges such as ROTFIX wood-rot prevention products, Epox-E-Glue and LuciClear casting and coating resins.

Useful for yacht owners and cruisers

The product mix suits someone restoring a wooden yacht, repairing gelcoat or carrying out structural fibreglass work. If you’re patching decks, bonding new planking, fairing hull repairs or repainting worn areas with a two-pack finish, Boatcraft’s combination of adhesives, epoxies, plywood and hardware covers many of those jobs in one place.
