Duffy Restoration FAQs

How much does a full Duffy restoration cost?
Investment depends on hull condition, interior scope, systems modernization, and finish level. After inspection, EBR provides a structured plan with clear phases — cosmetic, electrical, and turnkey options — so you understand scope before work begins.
Is restoring an older Duffy worth it?
For many owners, yes — when restoration is paired with electrical modernization, the result is a boat that looks, runs, and charges like a contemporary harbor craft. We help you evaluate condition, usage, and long-term value during the planning phase.
How long does a Duffy restoration take?
Timeline varies by scope. Targeted cosmetic work may complete in weeks; full transformations with systems upgrades often span multiple phases. Your restoration plan includes realistic scheduling before any work starts.
What can be restored on a Duffy boat?
EBR restores gelcoat and fiberglass, upholstery, surrey tops, wood varnish, exterior finish, bottom paint, and complete electrical systems — including lithium and charger upgrades when included in scope.
Can electrical upgrades be included in restoration?
Yes — and they should be. EBR is uniquely positioned to modernize power, charging, and drivetrain systems during restoration so cosmetic and performance upgrades happen together.
Does EBR handle full restoration or individual services?
Both. We execute complete turnkey Duffy transformations and individual restoration services — gelcoat, upholstery, varnish, buff & wax, and more — with the same luxury finishing standard.
