⚓ A Strategic Shift in East Coast Yachting

On March 19, 2026, Hornblower Group unveiled a massive 17-acre expansion of its Bridgeport facility, now branded as Steelpointe Shipyard by Hornblower. This development introduces Hornblower Marine Yachts, a specialized division dedicated to the refit and maintenance needs of the luxury yachting sector.

Infrastructure and Capabilities

With 4,200 square meters of indoor space and three Marine Travel Lifts capable of handling vessels up to 700 tonnes, the yard is set to become a premier destination for superyachts. The facility also features a 67-meter service dock, addressing the critical shortage of large-vessel repair capacity between New England and Bermuda.
