A.F. Theriault & Son Boatyard: Experience and Craftsmanship since 1938

For over 80 years A. F. Theriault & Son Ltd. has been building, repairing and refitting boats to the very highest standard of quality and workmanship. This family-owned Atlantic Canada boatyard was founded in 1938 by Augustin Theriault at a time when wooden 3-masted sailing ships still plied the seas.

Since that time we have built over 900 boats of up to 150’ (45m) for a wide range of uses. Though we started out building fishing boats, we have changed with the times. We have experience building a wide range of boats including catamarans and monohulls from steel, aluminum, fibreglass and the latest composites. Our clients request all manner of boats, including coastal and harbor patrol boats, fireboats, catamaran-style offshore workboats, passenger and ferry boats, as well as fishing boats.
