Boatbreakers Movie Star Boat
As mentioned on our @boatbreakers Twitter feed there will soon be one of our old boats featuring in a movie. The film is Free Fire, which is a all action shoot’em up beaten two gangs in an abandoned warehouse. And in that warehouse is one of our old speedboats that we are sure will now be full of bullet holes.
Free Fire was directed by Ben Wheatley whose previous films include High Rise and Kill List. The film features Peaky Blinders star Cillian Murphy alongside 21 Jump Street’s Brie Larson and is being released soon.
You can catch a glimpse of our old boat in the trailer for a split second at 2 minute 10 seconds. To see the trailer for Free Fire and to spot the prop boat click this link: TRAILER.
If you’re a Television, Movie or even Theatre and you need something boat related give us a call. If we don’t have the part or boat that you’re looking for we probably know the best place for you to look!

Luke completed a journalism degree in Brighton University and fortunately for us uses this in his communications, Facebook posts, Tweets and emails to tell all our enquirers and followers what we are up to. Without Luke we would be lost, he runs the office, keeps us organised and is like a terrier and never lets a tricky boat disposal job go un-photographed or Tweeted about.
He also manages all of our enquiries passing them to whoever in the team is the best suited to deal with it. We are teaching Luke how to drive a motorboat or sail a yacht so while he’s learning we suggest you keep out of the Solent!
When he’s not at work he’s a massive football fan (his Dad used to play for Portsmouth FC years ago) and seems to know everything there is to know about any player, anywhere. Next time you ring and he answers, think of a tricky football trivia question and ask him
