    Originally a french jeweler with a " Beaux Art school " background , I  immigrated to the US in 1986 and 15 years ago , as a hobby , did start restoring my own wooden boat . 3 years later , it became my main activity .

    The break came in 2003 , when I was hired by the " Los Angeles Maritime Museum " as general finishing contractor for their
    " Brigantine Youth Program ".  This unique multi millions dollar, 4 year project, consisted in the building of two sisterships, 140 feet long, wooden replicas of the magnificent nineteen century " Brigantine " tallships.  During this period, me and my crew performed all aspects of finishing operations including:  interior/exterior preparation & painting, wood sealing,  oil varnishing, fiberglassing, metals treatments, waterproofing,  windows sealing and decking .............

    During the past 10 years we have maintained and/or restored over 100 boats, on water or at our shop in Wilmington, California , including a 1950 Classic Chris Craft, a Chinese Junk, and more recent fiberglass & steel vessels.
    Two years ago at friends & customers suggestion  we decided to apply our skills and technology  to real estate properties.  I went back to school to obtain my California Contractor License (C33 painting & decorating) and during this period  successfully processed a dozen projects including  small luxury stores to 8000sq + homes.

2009 Update

 
 Fall 2009 update & resume .

Traditionally, December  is a quiet month in my business , time for routine maintenance , raining days , family dinners ...
But last week , I was contacted for a very interesting project , by the " Ortiz Family Collection " . 
It is a 15 ' scale boat model of the owner yacht , build in Europe . This artifact , planned to be displayed in their private modern art collection in Beverly Hills ( one of the greatest in the world ) , was damaged during the EU to USA trip .
We will proudly restore it this month .

It give me the opportunity to show you two " scale boat model " , one is a 1930 wood , restored for the 80 birthday  of the founder of Colonial Yacht shipyard .
Before computer & fiberglass , boat projects were crafted in wood by the shipbuilder .
It is a perfect example of this pure art !

1930 vintage restoration

And last , for Today ....., is a 1940 ? , scale boat model , 8 ' ,
