Timber over aluminium and carbon
A presence modern materials rarely match
In a world of aluminium and carbon fibre, timber spars and flagpoles still carry a presence that modern materials rarely match.
Adelaide Timber Boatworks repairs and builds timber masts, booms, gaffs, spars and flagpoles using quality materials and careful methods. Whether part of a traditional rig or a standalone feature, a well-made timber spar is both functional and beautiful.
Carefully selected grain
A spar is only as good as the timber it's made from. We select straight, sound grain and quality timber so each spar has the strength and character it needs.
Deep gloss varnish
A well-built spar carries a deep gloss varnish that protects the timber and gives it the presence that modern materials rarely match.
Repair and new construction
Whether restoring an existing spar or building new, we work to methods that keep the timber sound and the finished piece both functional and beautiful.
Traditional appearance, lasting durability
Part of a traditional rig or a standalone flagpole, a timber spar built with care offers a traditional appearance and real, lasting durability.
