Workboat charter & rental
Capability on the water, without owning the vessel
Chartering or renting a workboat gives your team additional capability on the water without purchasing a vessel. For harbour operations, marine construction or offshore projects, we match the vessel to your operating area, tasks and charter period. We consider deck space, payload, crew and the equipment your operation needs.
Every charter vessel is serviced and maintained by our own workshop. It arrives inspected, ready to work and with the paperwork in order.
Your operation
A workboat for your operation
Tell us what work you need to carry out, where the workboat is required and for how long. We will discuss a suitable vessel, configuration and availability for your project.
Plan your workboat charter
Tell us about the job, the window and the location. We will come back with the right vessel, availability and a concrete proposal.
Zero hassle
Chartering, kept simple
Chartering with us is deliberately simple. You describe the job; we match the vessel, prepare it for the task and handle mobilisation to your site. During the charter you have one point of contact for support, service and anything that comes up on the water.
At the end of the period we collect the vessel, handle demobilisation and close the file. No surveys to arrange, no maintenance backlog, no resale. Your team stays on the project; we keep the vessel working.

FAQ
Workboat charter and rental, frequently asked questions
What is included in a workboat charter?
Our proposal sets out the workboat, equipment and charter period for your project. We also discuss mobilisation, demobilisation and support during the charter, so you know what is included.
How fast can a charter workboat be on site?
That depends on the vessel and the location; we mobilise across Northwest Europe. Availability is confirmed when we propose the vessel, and mobilisation is planned together with you so the workboat is on site when your window opens.
Can a charter workboat be configured for our operation?
Yes. Charter workboats are prepared for the task at hand: deck layout, equipment and certification are checked against your operation before mobilisation. For heavier modifications our custom projects team steps in.
Who handles maintenance during a workboat charter?
We do. Novi Marine’s own workshop maintains the fleet to a documented schedule, and support during the charter runs through the same team that prepared the vessel.
Is it better to charter or buy a workboat?
Chartering suits temporary projects and seasonal work. Purchasing may suit long-term or recurring operations. Novi Marine advises on both options based on your tasks and intended period of use.
