Sandy Straits Marine is a fibreglass repair and fabrication business which started out specifically to service the marine industry but has expanded to cover all types of fibreglass needs. We use the latest technology in materials and procedures and have just entered the field of resin infusion. We have also been using Basalt fibre in our boat building, and have sent one of these boats off to Fiji. We are leading the way in our area with core materials used in boat building and repairs. In transoms and other areas where strength and non rot qualities are required, we use Coosa Board and H.D construction foam sheet for lightness and strength. Sandy Straits Marine offers top quality repainting of your boat and uses only top quality painting systems. We have built pods for small and large boats, and we can make a good hard top or dodger for you boat. We can make a mould for that special order, and then make your part to your choice of colour and texture. Sandy Straits Marine uses most resins like epoxy, vinyl ester, and polyester, with an array of mats like chopped strand mat (CSM) and d/byes and unidirectional. We have a chopper gun for the bulk lay up work and also boast a gel/coat gun to speed up gel/coating time and save on material waste.

Urangan Engineering is a proudly family owned and operated steel, aluminium and stainless steel sales and repairs business, operating in Hervey Bay for more than 40 years. Our owner and manager, Rick Verbruggen, started his apprenticeship here in 1977. In 1979, his father, Jack, a toolmaker by trade, bought the business and the rest is history, as they say. Rick is still hands on with the tools, and has seen many changes, from concentrating on making farming implements, to heavy involvement with the fishing industry and of recent years in the building industry. Rick and our team are fully experienced in all areas of general welding, repairs and steel requirements for the general public and businesses alike. Small jobs, big jobs, lathe work, guillotine, benders, stainless and aluminium welding, steel welding and sales are all available. At Urangan Engineering, we carry a large range of products, and for your convenience, a rack of pre-cut steel and aluminium. If we do not have an item, we will do out best to get it for you.
