Ex-F1 engineer takes helm of Salcombe-based marine specialist. Powerboats to be re-engineered from Devon base.
A Devon marine engineering business is set to become a centre of excellence for the service, repair and supply of inboard and outboard engines.
Charles Fawcett, owner of the Yorkshire-based Twisted Group, acquired SMS (Salcombe) Limited for an undisclosed sum, rebranding the company as Salcombe Marine Services. The move precedes the launch of Twisted Marine, the new powerboat arm of the Twisted Group.
Fawcett’s vision is for Salcombe Marine Services to become a centre of excellence for the service, repair and supply of inboard and outboard engines from a select range of manufacturers.
