In April 2023, long-time owners Ian and Shari MacPherson sold Stones Boatyard and Nanaimo Yacht Charters to Tony and Mike Harris, Ken Schley, and Andrew Babuin. Under the new ownership the group offers a comprehensive range of marine services and exceptional charter experiences.

Stones Boatyard is a professional, environmentally friendly facility located on the east coast of Vancouver Island.

Distinctively, it is the only charter company in British Columbia to offer an integrated service that includes a full-service yacht repair and maintenance division, an 85-ton Travelift, and an on-site marine store. This comprehensive approach ensures that every charter experience is supported by exceptional maintenance and repair services, providing a seamless and enjoyable experience for all customers.
