About us

⚓ At Daniel Marine Limited, our story began with a passion for craftsmanship and a commitment to doing every job well.

​

Our founder, Daniel Petrila, began his journey in Malta in the mid-1990s, working as a carpenter and boat builder at Kalkara Boat Yard. In 2008, he established his own business, bringing his skills and dedication to local and international clients. With more than 20 years of experience in boat construction and carpentry, Daniel’s expertise remains at the heart of our work.

Since then, we have cared for hundreds of boats and yachts, delivering projects across Malta’s shipyards and yacht marinas. From restoring teak decks to creating bespoke furniture, we combine practical knowledge with attention to detail to achieve results our clients can take pride in.

​

We understand that every vessel has its own character and requirements. Whether you need a repair, routine maintenance or an extensive refurbishment, we take the time to understand your needs and provide a professional service from the initial consultation to the finishing touches.

​

🛥️ Our marine services include:

• Boat carpentry and bespoke joinery

• Teak deck restoration, sealing and recaulking
