Bay Ship & Yacht Co. is a shipyard located on the beautiful waterfront of San Francisco Bay in Alameda, CA. One of Bay Ship & Yacht's specialties is the construction and reconstruction of historic and traditional vessels. Past Projects Include:

The reconstruction of the 170' three-masted lumber schooner, C.A.Thayer, for the National Park Service,
A complete rebuild of the scow schooner Alma (Often seen in San Francisco's Aquatic Park),
A major refit of the 307' bark Balclutha (Another resident of Aquatic Park),
The reproduction of the 120' brig Niagara, and
The recaulking of the USS Constitution.

Bay Ship & Yacht also engages in major refits and alterations of modern yachts and commercial vessels including high-speed and light-weight craft constructed of wood and composites, and commercial vessels constructed of steel and aluminum.

We are currently seeking experienced Marine Carpenters/Boat Builders/Shipwrights with the following skill set:

Capable of performing high-quality yacht joinery, including the layout, fabrication, and installation of wood joiner systems such as one finds when working on cabinets, doors, and lockers,
The ability to work independently, and as part of a crew, during the removal, repair, and installation of teak decking systems, and
The ability to work with other shipwrights during the repair, restoration, or construction of wooden vessels.

All of this work is performed in the wonderful setting of our Alameda boatyard on the Oakland Estuary. The views are spectacular. Whether it's the stunning sunrise over the East Bay Hills, evening's sparkling lights on the Estuary, or those crystal clear days on San Francisco Bay, it's the best worksite in Northern California! Plus, you'll be joining some amazingly talented artisans who take great pride in their skills and abilities.

We are looking for experienced Marine Carpenters / Boat Builders as well as those with minimum experience, with the capacity and desire to work hard and learn the boat-building trade. Individuals with experience in the construction trade will also be considered.

As is standard with most craft positions, candidates will be expected to supply their own hand tools and should be knowledgeable in their use and maintenance.

All new-hires must provide identification to verify their eligibility to work in the U.S., and must pass a pre-employment medical exam which includes a drug screening and physical abilities assessment.

Bay Ship & Yacht offers an excellent benefits package, including: Profit Sharing, 401k retirement plan, paid Vacations and Holidays, and Health, Dental & Life Insurance. If you are looking for an exciting career on the waterfront of San Francisco Bay, we’d like to talk with you.
