Weingarth Customs: Craftsmanship, Passion, and Yachting Culture.
If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be living on a sailboat with my husband, Chris, and our two dogs, I would’ve laughed. And yet, here we are—living a life shaped by the sea and blending our passion for sailing with a family business that thrives in the refined world of yachting. In yachting, where elegance meets functionality, the smallest details carry the greatest weight. A single scratch, a nick, or a marred surface can disrupt the harmony that defines these vessels. At Weingarth Customs, Chris and I have dedicated ourselves to preserving that harmony through meticulous craftsmanship and personalized service, blending artistry with utility in every project we undertake.
Weingarth Customs began over 15 years ago in Upstate New York, where Chris honed his expertise in design and fabrication for luxury homes. His ability to tackle complex challenges with creativity and precision became the cornerstone of our business. When we moved to South Florida, this legacy transitioned seamlessly into the world of yachting. Chris noticed a common issue on yachts: minor damages to panels, walls, or cabinets often led to full replacements. Knowing there had to be a better way, he developed a touch-up repair service that saves time, reduces costs, and preserves the original integrity of the yacht. This approach has revolutionized how yacht owners maintain their vessels, offering a sustainable and elegant alternative to full-scale replacements.
When I joined Chris in the business, I fully embraced the ethos of precision and care. Together, we’ve mastered the art of touch-ups, repairing dings, scratches, screw holes, and water damage on wood, laminate, painted, and composite surfaces. These seemingly small details make a world of difference, ensuring that every yacht we work on remains as beautiful as the day it was launched. Beyond repairs, we’ve introduced innovative solutions like Paint Protection Film (PPF). This ultra-thin, transparent urethane film provides a shield for high-use areas—countertops, marble bars, dining tables, and more—protecting them from daily wear and tear. PPF complements our touch-up work, ensuring that every yacht remains not only flawless but also future-proof.
Our services extend beyond simple fixes. We bring artistry into the yachting world with specialties like gold and silver leafing and faux painting, adding custom, luxurious touches to each vessel. These projects allow us to celebrate the intersection of function and beauty, creating spaces that are not just restored but elevated. Our work is deeply personal. Sailing isn’t just a hobby for us—it’s our lifestyle. It started with a spontaneous trip to Bimini, and before we knew it, we were sailing regularly, restoring an old Hobie Cat, and becoming part of a vibrant sailing community. For the past eight years, we’ve lived full-time on a sailboat, immersing ourselves in a world we love.
Living on the water has given us a unique perspective on the importance of preserving yachts. We understand firsthand the joy these vessels bring and the pride owners take in their upkeep. That’s why we pour our hearts into every project, treating each yacht as if it were our own. Weingarth Customs is more than a business—it’s a tribute to the yachting lifestyle. Every repair, every application of PPF, every artistic touch reflects our respect for the craftsmanship that defines this world. We aim not just to restore yachts but to preserve their stories, ensuring that they remain as timeless as the sea itself. As we continue to serve the yachting community, we’re reminded daily that the true soul of a yacht lies in its seamless blend of function, artistry, and enduring beauty. For Chris and me, it’s not just about fixing what’s broken—it’s about celebrating the elegance, integrity, and culture of yachting. After all, this isn’t just our job. It’s our passion, our lifestyle, and our way of contributing to the world we love.
