"The Rampart Owners Club is for all those interested in the boats
constructed by the Rampart Boatbuilding Co Ltd. We welcome
current and previous owners of Ramparts and all those with an
enthusiasm for these beautiful boats. . . .
The Rampart Boat Building Works was started by George Alexander Desty
just after the First World War on Vespasian Road in Bitterne Manor,
near Southampton and stayed there until it moved to the huge yard of
Maxim Marine in 1985. The Rampart Boat Building Works eventually
merged with Victoria Marine, signalling the end of a long and highly
successful boatbuilding career, and the Desty brothers left the
business in the early 1990s to pursue other interests. The club
arranges annual meetings and gatherings of Rampart boats, maintains an
archive of information about the boats and the company that built
them, publishes quarterly members newsletter and provides mutual
advice and support to help keep boats in active use.”
