Lackey Sailing, LLC is the parent company for Tim Lackey's
boat repair and restoration operation, Northern Yacht
Restoration. In addition, this site serves as a sort
of home base for Tim's various projects and undertakings.
Lackey
Sailing
Formed in 2004, Lackey Sailing is dedicated to the
preservation of the so-called "plastic classic"
boats--fiberglass sailboats from the 1960s and 1970s.
Through Northern Yacht Restoration, Tim aims to provide
high-quality restoration and refitting work for one classic
boat at a time.
With an
increasing disparity between the boats of yesterday and the
more modern designs of today, more and more sailors are
turning to the older designs, favored for their simplicity,
subjectively better appearance, and the overall goodness of
the designs and construction thereof.
However, many
of these older boats have fallen into various stages of
disrepair and, while worthy of extended life, are clearly in
need of structural repairs, upgrades in equipment, and the
benefits of newer technology since the boat originally went
to market.
Quality
Work and Helpful Advice
That's where Lackey Sailing comes in, offering advice,
information, and only the highest quality restoration
services to the owner who can appreciate the benefits of
saving an older boat from the boneyard.
If you're
intrigued, please call or email Tim directly for more
information, or to talk about your project.
