Kirby Marine Fabrication
Fabrication in Cockburn

Each patrol vessel is designed and built to rigid specifications depending upon its premeditated use. Perhaps it is the way we labor with our customers, perhaps it is the quality of the craft we build, but somehow we believe we have a triumphant formula for producing popular and healthy respected patrol vessels. It is essential that rescue vessels are safer and stronger than the craft they are rescuing and they need to weather the harsh conditions and travel as speedy and direct as possible. Kirby Marine work with the group who is to operate the craft and do our best to deliver a craft that will exceed their expectations. These vessels are revolutionizing the way tourists experience nature! Spectacular scenery and wildlife experiences are combined with maximimum comfort, viewing opportunities and the exhilaration of a high speed craft. We have delivered labor boats for the commercial market in configurations from cray rock lobster fishing, crab and abalone fishing, personnel water taxis, and pilot vessels. We pride ourselves on customer satisfaction and labor closely with you to yield the most efficient, value for money, serviceable product. A delicate is a vessel old to transport personnel to and from the mother craft and are usually built to stringent specifications to suit the mother craft. The lighter and more manoeuvrable the better. They are stored in various positions, usually inboard the mother ship when not in use. Recreational vessels are built to specific requirements, depending upon the very specific needs of the owner. For example, one request was for a live inboard tank as the owner has a hobby of diving for tropical fish and wanted to transport them to his home tank. Kirby Marine has been custom designing and building marine vessels for 25 years. Based in the Henderson Marine Precinct of Western Australia (15 minutes south of the port of Fremantle), Kirby Marine's vessels can be found in oceans the world over from patrol vessels in Perth to ecotourers in Tasmania, transfer vessels in Indonesia and lofty speed dive boats in the United Arab Emirates. A manufacturing arrangement with NAIAD (New Zealand) adds the Naiad range of rigid inflatables to Kirby Marine's impressive design portfolio. I have enjoyed all the advice given me over the preceding 9 months and enjoy everything that has been done by you all so thanks again for a job well done and I will certainly think of all of you when heading for the pristine Abrolhos Islands :) Retain building immense boats and remain to be proud of what you are achieving.
