Tomas Lindqvist
Founder & Yard Master — Harbourline Marine
Tomas opened Harbourline with a single dry dock and a crew of eleven. It is now the largest independent vessel-servicing yard on the northern coast, and the only one still owned by the people who work in it. Hooligans Holdings partnered in 2021.

The story, in their own words.
“A yard is judged on one number — how many days a boat sits waiting. We built the whole business around shortening that number.”
“Every competitor within four hundred miles has been bought by a fleet operator. Staying independent is the product.”
