Main Services
We are an all-inclusive firm with a focus on Hypalon and PVC dinghies. We have the following three services, which we are known for, including:
Cut repair
One of easiest way to ruin a dinghy fabric is through movement over sharp objects (ladder, trailer, stones).
The same system adopted for holes is used for fixing holes, with the difference that a cut requires a higher attention in order to make a perfect match and invisible fix.
A patch is NEVER ENOUGH, Big D makes it good and gives 1 year warranty on the repair.
Fouling removal
Removing the fouling on the bottom of the dinghies can seem an easy job, but actually is not.
Removing such vegetation can bring in worst cases (for instance due by a misuse of a scraper) to air leaks.
Our chemicals are REACH approved, not nocive for the environment and delete ALL the vegetation.
Satisfaction GUARANTEED.
Hole fix
Having a hole or a puncture to your rhib is one of most common problems but can still lead to difficult solutions.
Big D developed a unique technique for fixing the hole, granted by a push-pull fix which not only stops the air leak, but reinforce the fabric.
All our hole/puncture fix are subject to a 1 year warranty.
Planing triangle
The planing triangle is a device which is installed over the outer ring of a dinghy, which usually (due to the water flow) get detached.
Whatever is the make of your dinghy, preventing this air leak is the best thing to do in order to not being surprised during summer.
Big D prides herself for having patented a unique design for the planing triangle.
Instead of a triangle, it covers BOTH sides of the tube granting a better and longer performance for your vessel.
The design has been registered at chamber of commerce in Malta on 2020 under design 1549.

Retubing a dinghy means have a BRAND NEW dinghy.
We do offer original ORCA® Pennel et Flipò Hypalon© fabric conversions only.

Bumper replacement
Bumpers are the most exposed and damaged parts on any boats.
After few years or severe accidents, it might be necessary to change them.
But at Big D® we do beyond the problem and take care mostly of what is UNDER it.
Issues in dismantling are given by a non correct procedure, which bring to air leak from the fabric or worst damages such as layer detachment.
We take care of your dinghy and not only we proceed with caution, we do suggest what is better accordingly to your needs.
We use only the best shock absorbing rubber, Made in Italy.
Valve replacement
One of most common problem especially on PVC dinghies is the air leak from the valves, and more specifically from their seams.
We do keep in stock most common valves and some parts of the oldest models, plus what is not available is 3D printed in our internal workshop.
We do offer:
- maintenance to the inner valve
- spring and membrane check
- seam fix/replacement
- valve replacement
- parts production
Cone rebuild
Having the stern section on a dinghy down is one of most dangerous experience you can have with your boat.
Not only it will slow you down, but depending on the model and how severe is the damage, it can lead to take water to the double bottom.
We seriously take in consideration these damages, and grant our best effort to make a STABLE and DURABLE repair.
In rebuilding stage, moreover, we apply the latest techniques of rebuild, by avoiding the external closure ring.
Mildew removal
Does your dinghy have some mildew spots coming out and you find it very annoying?
NO WORRIES, we have the solution.
Big D® developed a unique technique for permanently removing mildew from Hypalon© dinghies, made out of 5 steps and includes a protective coat which will help the brilliance to last longer.
Our chemicals are REACH approved and comply to EU standards.
