The name of Thornycroft has been associated with high speed vessels since 1864 when Sir John Isaac Thornycroft started production of high speed vessels on the river Thames. Thornycroft Maritime Limited was established in 1980 in association with Commander Peter Thornycroft, the grandson of Sir John. In 1987 Thornycroft Maritime & Associates (Aust) Pty Ltd was established in Perth, Western Australia with the intention of further developing the company's relationship with the high speed vessel market.
Thornycroft Maritime & Associates provide designs and project management for vessels to be constructed in shipyards throughout the world. An extension of this service is that On-Site supervision and Project Management is also provided by the Company.
A strong division of the Company is the provision of CKD (Complete Knock Down) kits. Since 1980 Thornycroft Maritime & Associates have delivered a considerable number of these kits and designs to small shipyards and owners around the world. The present day sees further development of the Thornycroft Maritime kit boat and vessel design business, which makes available advanced aluminium shipbuilding technology to developing shipyards and owners in the South East Asian and Pacific region.
Thornycroft Maritime CKD Kit Sets are high quality aluminium CKD boat building kits comprising the following list of kit set components:
Hull Construction Kit
Engineering Kit
Electrical Outfit and Electronics Kit
Outfitting Kit
Safety Equipment Kit
Complete Design Package
Thornycroft Maritime Kit Sets incorporate the most outstanding and innovative design features together with the most advanced technology available in the aluminium shipbuilding industry today. Thornycroft Maritime Kit Sets are in general developed from heavier materials than some CKD kits which are currently available in the market and without doubt provide a high quality product, which not only assists the shipbuilder, but also provides the owner/operator with a first class result.
The future for aluminium and steel kit boat construction incorporating the latest design technology and the enhancement of regional shipbuilding through the supply of aluminium vessels or steel vessels in CKD form is very encouraging. This together with the provision of advanced ship design and technical support for the construction of High Speed Interceptor Craft and Offshore Patrol Vessels for foreign Navies, Marine Police and Coast Guard operations is a very exciting prospect and all of us at Thornycroft Maritime & Associates remain deeply committed to its development.
