Frecheville Heaney

about us

There was a time when several boatyards dotted the shores of the Gippsland Lakes. For example, Bull’s Cruisers was one of the most prolific – beginning with Joseph Bull, who started building trading vessels and charter boats in Metung in 1924. For more than a century, boats such as these maintained a reputation for seaworthiness and reliability.

James Frecheville established a small boat repair business at Paynesville in 1990. Tim Heaney joined James as a boatbuilder in 1997. In 2003, the pair incorporated Frecheville Heaney Boatbuilders, establishing a business that is recognised Australia wide for its expertise, craftsmanship and passion for excellence.

James retired from the company in 2020. Tim and his talented team continue to build new boats and to salvage childhood memories and maritime treasures in their small but busy Paynesville workshop.

Although the heyday of commercial shipbuilding on the Gippsland Lakes is gone, boatbuilders like Frecheville Heaney continues to maintain the highest standards of craftsmanship and preserves that rich history.
