About Ben Coe
I started working with Boatshed in May 2022.
What did you do before working with Boatshed?
I currently run a boatyard in Shoreham.
What attracted you to become part of the Boatshed team?
I enjoy working in the boating world and meeting new people. With a wide knowledge of all kinds of boats I think I can help people find the right boat and also help the owner sell their boat.
Are you a motorboater or a sailor?
Well, the answer is both; through work, lifeboat and leisure.
I have been around boats all my life, sailing from a young age, building boats, running a boatyard, crew on Shoreham Lifeboat.
What is your most memorable boating experience?
Now that's a hard one! Is it doing 120 mph across the Solent in a class 1 powerboat, sailing a 47' yacht across the channel or saving a small yacht and crew from under Brighton pier in a storm..?
