Oldtimer Services
The cornerstone of the SHIPTEC shipyard was laid as far back as 1853. Since then the company has been overhauling and maintaining both classic steamboats and vintage diesel vessels. SHIPTEC Lucerne therefore has the unique know-how and priceless skills that are required to keep all the different types of oldtimers afloat today. Our staff have not forgotten the technical skills and antique trades of yesteryear and therefore are still very much able to rivet hulls, correctly treat antique woods, machine steam engine components or install steam boilers or turbines. When it comes to the maintenance and revitalisation of classic ships, SHIPTEC Lucerne is one of the leading providers in Europe!
