Boat and Ship Building
Sri Lanka’s strategic geographical location on a key marine crossroads in the Indian Ocean, the country's fast-expanding technological capacity in boat building and drydock services and its potential for nautical tourism, have given rise to country’s ship and boat building industry. Having utilised its strategic location, highly trainable workforce, low labour cost, and the availability of one of the best natural harbours in the Asian region Sri Lanka now produces Ships and Boats that navigate global oceanic channels as well as inland waterways. Today, the country serves as a complete maritime service hub, which also offers a complete range of services, including assembly, refuelling, refit and repair for numerous types of boats and seagoing and inland watercraft.
