Derecktor Ft. Pierce

Jersey Girl recently returned to service following a successful repower at Derecktor's Mamaroneck, NY yard, completed in collaboration with Mack Boring & Parts Co. and Bill McKim of Jersey Shore Whale Watch.

Mack Boring supplied three new Scania diesel engines for the vessel, which was completed in just 2.5 months from engine delivery, with USCG COI approval secured in time for the July 4th celebration in New York Harbor. The repower increased the vessel's speed from 10 knots to 22 knots, with a cleaner, quieter, smoke-free operation.

As Mack Boring & Parts Co. shared, "It's rare that we can show up, complete a sea trial, and have the boat head straight to work, yet with Derecktor's team, that's exactly what happened. Steve and his team at the Mamaroneck yard worked quickly and efficiently. We're very grateful for the professionalism at Derecktor and for the opportunity to work with Bill McKim and Jersey Shore Whale Watch."

We hauled this 165’ Delta in April for significant driveline work and a bottom paint job. After launching them this June, they’re already back with us, this time for a full hull and superstructure paint job. We’re proud to have earned their trust for a second project this season.

146’ Heesen M/Y Lady L has hauled at Derecktor Fort Pierce for an extended yard period. The scope includes taking the hull back to bare metal with new fairing, primer, and topcoat, interior and exterior soft goods, underwater and exterior LED lighting, teak deck upgrades, and a 15-year ABS survey. Stay tuned as the project unfolds.

What an evening!
