NEB as it is known to the locals, came highly recommended to us again last season by numerous yacht Captains and crew who used this facility for its full range of services offered to visiting yachts. The owners Tom Rich, Steven Casella and David MacBain began building America’s Cup Yachts, which include Dennis Conner’s 12-Meter Liberty. More than 20 years later, NEB is busy building pre preg carbon racing yachts as well as performance cruisers, both sail and power. NEB-built yachts have won major sailing events around the US and Europe. The marina facility has seasonal and transient dockage for yachts up to 100’ and 15’ draft, complete with high-end refit and repair facilities. NEB offers a wide range of services including complete mechanical, electrical, refrigeration, air conditioning, welding / fabrication, plumbing, carpentry, fibreglass and hitech composite service and repair. With three Travel Lifts, with hauling capacity up to 88 Tons, their reputation is well known and they have a highly skilled mobile unit for work around the Newport area and throughout the region.
