D&R Shipwrights was first established by Dieter Runow in 1973 and has been operating out of Darling Point since. As a family owned and operated business, Runow’s son, Lars, was introduced to the marine industry as early as 1988 and went on to take up the company before his father’s death in 2005. Lars seeks to maintain the company’s values by upholding the same traditional work ethic of honest and reliable service.

His 30 years of experience has afforded the company a wealth of clients which testify to the highest quality craftsmanship in the Eastern suburbs. As a result D&R Shipwrights has earned a reputation for employing qualified shipwrights and tradesmen that offer the best customer service in Sydney’s marine industry.

Here at D&R Shipwrights we believe that customer satisfaction is of the utmost importance which is why we take the time to ensure our clients are well informed on the details of their project. The results of our comprehensive maintenance and repair services are the reason why we’re confident that we know a little bit about customer service and a lot about boats.
