Hodgdon Yachts: To Damariscotta and beyond
.jpg "title=")
Story Location: 6 Angell Lane Damariscotta , ME 04543 United States
Across the street from a stream of traffic on busy Route 1 in Damariscotta sits a giant blue warehouse. Taped on the windows are two big signs that read: “Boatbuilders Wanted”
On March 19 Hodgdon Yachts celebrated a major milestone — the grand opening of a new shipbuilding facility.
The ribbon was cut at noon, as shipbuilders, boat enthusiasts and Damariscotta town officials congregated around owner Tim Hodgdon as he commemorated the world class yacht company’s 21,500-square-foot acquisition .
“Five years ago we recognized a new direction for our company to build high end custom and and semi-custom tenders, including unique limousine tenders to service the global mega-yacht industry,” Hodgdon said. “We intend to expand this business and make skillful jobs at this location.”
Hodgdon said the new facility will be used specifically for the construction of tenders. Tenders are small boats between 8.5-12 meters long. They are carried aboard large yachts and are used primarily to motor safely into ports. Additionally, Hodgdon's international sales team has opened a new office in the Western Europe city-state of Monaco to handle the increased sales of tenders.
While the new Damariscotta shop is expected to add 10 new jobs to the workforce, Hodgdon said he wanted “to be very clear” about what he is doing.
“I will not be moving operations out of East Boothbay,” Hodgdon said. “Operations here are an expansion and growth opportunity for our already existing company.”
Shipbuilding has been a staple industry of the East Boothbay waterfront for nearly 200 years, and according to Hodgdon, he intends to keep it there, while continuing to grow the business as “aggressively as possible.”
Damariscotta Town Manager Matt Lutkus also spoke at the ribbon cutting ceremony.
“A hundred years ago about this time, we had a thriving harbor and boatyard in both Great Salt Bay and the Damariscotta Harbor. There were about two dozen shipbuilders there at the time,” Lutkus said. “I see this as another era following that same theme.”
Visitors were invited to tour the facilities after the ceremony, and the shipbuilders returned to work, building the cutting edge vessels that have established Hodgdon Yachts amongst the world's finest.

DLBA YACHTING NEWS
Hodgdon yachts' "valyra".
JUNE 5, 2022
If you were at the Palm Beach Yacht show in March, you might have seen VALYRA, a DLBA design built by Hodgdon Yachts. In fact, she was Hull #2, following in the footsteps of her sistership, ZARKAVA (with a couple of subtle upgrades, of course). These boats were designed by DLBA under the keen eye of Donald Blount. Jeff Bowles has led the DLBA team in the engineering effort over the course of several years, which has included sea trialing a parent craft, hydrodynamic model testing, aerodynamic CFD analysis, advanced noise reduction engineering, and more.
Courtesy: DLBA
It was a great experience to work closely with Hodgdon Yachts, RWD Design, and J&A Enterprises in development and delivery of these special yachts. To learn more about the two “racehorses”, check out this article by Justin Ratcliff, posted on superyacht Times.

TESTIMONIALS
Hodgdon 's is a yard with a good depth of talent, easy to work with, and the entire yard has great integrity. They do indeed stand behind their work.
Captain Bruce White | Southport, ME
1968 Brownell Sport Fisherman
Both the marina and yard are first class operations with friendly, knowledgeable staff, launch service, clean facilities, and a well-stocked parts store. Having been from Florida to Maine, this is one of the best – we’ll be back again this summer.
Susan Pope | Atlanta, GA

We were so well treated by everyone – from the office staff, the service manager, the mechanic, and the waterfront staff – that we were made to feel like your oldest and best customers.

42’ Island Pilot
When we decided it was time to Awlgrip the 14 year old chalked “flag blue” gel coat hull of our “Holland 32″ lobster yacht, there was no doubt in our minds that Hodgdon Yacht Services should do this job. The end result is beyond our expectations.
