Deepwater swinging moorings
We have moorings in place suitable for vessels up to 50ft.
Deepwater swinging moorings consist of a buoy attached to a heavy chain or rope, allowing boats to swing freely with the tide and wind.
Storage ashore
We can store any vessel ashore from small tenders & trailer boats to 36ft yachts or motorboats – anything up to about 10 tons in total.
Large Workshed
We have a work shed large enough to fit most yachts within our lifting capability (de-masted) – this is available to rent for any short term periods where you need a controlled atmosphere .

Powerboat Courses
The 2 day RYA Powerboat level 2 course runs at our Training Centre at Rudders Boatyard which is an approved RYA powerboat training centre with direct access to the tidal waters of the Milford Haven. This RYA powerboat level 2 course is the perfect boat training course for the absolute beginner or a stepping stone to further courses by sharpening those existing skills. It can be completed on your boat or ours.
Our Location
We are 3rd on the right off Church Road in Burton, less than a mile upstream of Neyland Marina/ Jolly Sailor pub & the Cleddau Bridge which has a relatively safe 36 meters (118ft) height at high water & always deep water from the mouth of the estuary all the way to us.
“One of the most picturesque, friendly & sheltered boatyards I have ever seen, anywhere!”
In a beautiful, quiet & picturesque countryside location, we can be found some six miles upstream on the Milford Haven Waterway in Burton, Pembrokeshire, South West Wales.
The Coastline
The Haven itself has some 26 miles of navigable waters & is a great base for visiting local pubs and beaches!
You will find Rudders Boatyard just upstream of the Cleddau Bridge, far enough upriver to be surrounded by national parks and wildlife whilst still having enough depth for most vessels. Our friendly family run boatyard and experienced team can help with all aspects of boating, from general advice to complex repairs along with our popular RYA training centre.
Once outside the Haven we have a magnificent coastline with beautiful Islands and beaches teaming with wildlife & are just a short hop to the West Country or Ireland, its a paradise for both sailors and powerboaters to explore!
