Classic boat craftsmanship for higher elevation waters.

Have a boat that needs work, but not sure where to start?

Fill out a project request and tell us what you want repaired, restored, or improved. We will review the details and help bring the project to life from our Colorado based workshop.

Built Around What Your Boat Needs

From routine upkeep to larger restoration work, 5280 Boatworks helps bring your classic and recreational boats back into shape. We handle wood repair, fiberglass repair, bottom work, brightwork, and any custom finish improvements.

Whether you have a classic wood boat, an older fiberglass hull, or a project boat we can help make it feel ready for the water again.

Restoration

Whether the work starts below the waterline, in the finish, or in damaged fiberglass or wood, We’ll help bring your boat back with careful repair, clean detail work, and an eye for what made the boat worth saving.

Custom Builds

Some boats are not found in a showroom. They start with how you want to be on the water: rowing, paddling, sailing, or simply owning something built with purpose. We’ll take on custom craft projects to create a handmade boat personal to you.

Maintenance

Regular care helps keep a boat from turning into a larger project. We focus on non mechanical upkeep for the surfaces, finishes, brightwork, and any other exposed details that need attention season after season.

Consulting

For owners taking on their own repair, restoration, or refinishing work, we offer practical support before and during the project. We can help you understand what you are looking at, plan the work, choose materials, avoid common mistakes, and work through questions as they come up.
