Our boatcare team at Portland Marina

WJJ03668

Lee

Boat Care Manager

Lee’s job is to get the yard shipshape and Bristol fashion and running like a clipper ship in a blow. Appropriate given his area of expertise is traditional boat building and he has built and restored several wooden boats.

Jack

Boat Yard Supervisor

Always smiling and often dancing, Jack can be found keeping a close eye on your boat in the yard and manning the hoist. He’s in charge of Christmas and his goal is to get the team to a karaoke bar, a feat he has not yet achieved!

Most likely to say: "Lovin' life!"

Favourite to get afloat... paddle boarding

Loves... Singing in the shower, football (he's a striker for the local team), beer!

Pet hates... Chalk, wearing trousers to work!

Would love to explore... Australia

Jude

Boatcare Co-Ordinator

Ably assisting  Lee at keeping the boatcare team on course is Jude. A lover of almost any kind of music makes him a perfect side-kick, just don't ask either of them what their favourite band is, or you might be there for a while! A fan of four wheels, but not the the motorised kind, you may also see Jude zooming around on his skateboard.

Liz

Boatcare Administrator

 Liz moved to Portland during the summer of 2019 for a change of scenery and career, totalling 5 years now working at the marina. She has boundless enthusiasm and a welcoming smile for everyone as she keeps the team and office in ship shape. You might find her using her newly acquired skills on motorboats, after completing her Powerboat 2 course. You may recognise Liz from the marina office but she has recently joined the team over at Boatcare for a change of scenery!


Most likely to say... "Copy that!"
Favourite way to get afloat... Crewing on any boat available when the sun's out!
Loves... singing (she's in a rock choir!), dog walks, fair weather sailing!
Pet hate... the sound of fingers on a balloon
Would love to explore... Scotland
Bake her a cake... carrot, all the way!
