Tinkering, repairing, mending - in many boat owners there is also a tinkerer. But what work can you still do yourself and, above all, how exactly, and at what point should it be better to call in experts? You can get competent answers, tips, tricks and instructions at the newly designed Refit Center in Hall 11 at boot Düsseldorf!

In the Refit Centre, visitors will receive professional tips and product information on all aspects of boat repair and restoration. In workshops and lectures, tips are given on all aspects of boat building materials and boat maintenance: Numerous topics are covered, from electrics and communication electronics to heating and air-conditioning technology and fresh and waste water systems.

Do it yourself

In the various workshops, the exhibitors and speakers will show many useful tips and tricks for on-board use to accompany the daily program. Visitors have the opportunity to get active themselves and ask the experts for advice. Whether sanding, painting or filling: the boat builders show how it's done right! The varied program reveals how you can maintain or even increase the value of your boat, how you can carry out various repairs yourself, which tools you need, and much more.

Impressions from the Refit Center

Timber Workshop: "Building Tuckerboats"

Location: Hall 11 - Stand J04

Under the guidance of Andreas Milde, small wooden boards are sawn into the ship shape. Then a copper tube is bent into a double coil. The tube is attached to the model with both ends facing backwards. If a tealight is now placed under the coil, the little boat starts moving shortly after.

Andreas Milde has designed and prepared the tuckerboats especially for visitors of boot Düsseldorf.

No online registration is necessary. Just come along!
