History of Our Company
The boat building firm was formed in 1947 by two brothers, Mike and Gordon Attrill. Prior to this date a Mr. Hardy, who was a prisoner of war with his friend Mr. Bevan, gave them an order to build a dinghy. This was built in the Golf Professional work shop of the Royal Isle of Wight Golf Club. (This is mentioned because to date the direct families of both Gentlemen remain friends and clients of the Attrill family)
The firm’s name H. Attrill & Sons (Isle of Wight) Ltd. was after their father, Henry.
