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.

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 !
And last , for Today ....., is a 1940 ? , scale boat model , 8 ' ,
used for movies .... I suppose .
She is in my office , just behind my desk , what a beauty , the dirt is fake & painted !
Happy Holiday's to all of you
Philippe d'Aniere & the crew
