VENTURA HARBOR BOATYARD INC

Ventura Harbor Boatyard Inc. specializes in the haul-out, maintenance, and repair of federal research and patrol vessels, with deep expertise in shipyard operations for government-owned marine assets. The contractor delivers comprehensive vessel servicing including dry-docking, structural repairs, propulsion system inspections, hull cleaning, and systems calibration, tailored to the operational demands of NOAA and National Park Service vessels. Their technical proficiency extends to compliance with Service Contract Act wage determinations, CFR-based contract modifications, and extended performance period management, demonstrating a strong grasp of federal maritime regulatory frameworks. The firm’s ability to execute urgent, condition-driven repairs—such as those triggered by unforeseen hull or mechanical issues—underscores its responsiveness and operational agility in mission-critical environments. The company maintains a consistent partnership with the Department of Commerce, particularly NOAA’s Office of Marine and Aviation Operations, providing annual and emergency shipyard services for research vessels like the R/V Shearwater, R/V Minke, and R/V Fulmar. It also supports the Department of the Interior’s National Park Service with routine and seasonal maintenance of patrol craft such as the Sea Ranger II, Ocean Ranger, and Surf Ranger, ensuring readiness for Channel Islands National Park operations. These relationships reflect a pattern of repeat engagement driven by reliability, technical precision, and adherence to federal maritime standards. Ventura Harbor Boatyard Inc. operates exclusively within NAICS 336611, focusing on the repair and maintenance of medium-sized government vessels rather than new construction. This narrow specialization positions the firm as a trusted niche provider for federal agencies requiring dependable, year-round vessel sustainment in coastal and marine sanctuary environments. The company is a locally based, small business entity headquartered in Ventura, California, with no federal certifications on record. Its geographic proximity to key federal maritime assets enhances response times and logistical efficiency, reinforcing its role as a critical regional support asset for federal marine operations.
