💐In Loving Memory of John Douglas💐

We are saddened to share the passing of John Douglas, who left us peacefully on Saturday, 5th April.

John started All Inboard & Outboard Service 50 years ago with a toolbox, and the determination to build something lasting. Over the years, he did just that — building not only a respected business but a legacy that shaped the marine industry in Pittwater.

He trained his apprentices with patience and pride. But his greatest pride came from working side by side with his wife Evelyn and later, with his sons, building a family business with quality work and integrity.

To celebrate Johns life, Douglas Marine will be closed on Tuesday, 15th April for a private family ceremony.

Thank you to our community for the outpouring of support and kind messages.
— The Douglas Family

Another action-packed day in Hobart!

Great to catch up with our friends and customers and see their boats in action. The marine industry is full of exciting career opportunities, and there’s no shortage of passionate people to guide the way.

And yes—that’s Michaela up the mast and at the helm of MV Rhona H! 🚤⚓

Catching up with our customer Stephen Robson and crew from the stunning VENTURA built in 1893 from Huon Pine. Referred to as the first 'modern' racing yacht constructed in Australia.

🎉 Happy National Gravy Day! 🎉

From all of us at Douglas Marine, we’re raising a toast (or a ladle!) to this deliciously fun day.

Supplying the 'outboard' for the Gravy Boat was our most talked-about repower of the year, proving that no matter the project, we’re here to deliver smooth sailing—whether on water or in gravy!

Here’s to unforgettable adventures, creative collaborations, and of course, plenty of gravy.
