MarQuipt’s designs and builds quality products that combine beauty and grace with form and function. Our objective is to build high quality products that are safe to use, are delivered on time, and have a value second to none. We back it up with the finest service in the industry, delivered by a staff of highly talented, innovative people with decades of marine experience.
At MarQuipt, running a tight ship is part of loving what we do. And while our custom marine products’ lasting value and functional beauty speak for themselves, our start-to-finish capabilities and quality standards ensure smoother sailing before - and long after - the launch.

MarQuipt founded in Pompano Beach, FL by a retired Chris-Craft engineer who had retired to South Florida, our initial product line consisted of helm and cockpit seating.
1960’s

1970’s
Extension of product line to traditional winch-operated davits and cranes, radar-arches supplied to OEM boat builders and end-users, and custom aluminum and stainless-steel fabrication services.
1980’s
Development of the Tender-Lift hydraulic linear-winch system for davits and cranes, eliminating the traditional drum winch and providing vastly improved performance, user experience, reliability, longevity and sleek, compact designs. Redesign and modernization of the original Sea-Stair.
1990’s
Conversion from traditional paper-drafting to computer assisted design. Standardization of product line. Introduction of Marinedeck cork composite decking as an optional walking surface on all of our boarding equipment, as well as distribution of the product nationwide for new and retrofit decking applications. Research into potential non-aluminum composite davit construction techniques.

2000’s

Further extension of a mature line of boarding equipment and accessories. Continued refinement and improvement of hydraulic passarelles and powered boarding stairs
