List of boatbuilders mentioned in the Swallows and Amazons series:
Launching Scarab as depicted on the cover of The Picts and the Martyrs
in Norfolk
- Rodley's of Wroxham, own Margoletta (BS)
- Sonning's of Potter Heigham, boats cast off and shackles stolen by George Owden (BS)
- Jonatt's of Horning, sail loft used to out Pete's loose tooth (BS1); Pete's dad works there (CN1)
- Hannam's of Horning: Joe's dad works there (BS21)
at the Lake
- Rio boatbuilders: Old James, Robert, and a boy "hardly older than John" (SD8 & PM2,15). Old James is shown in a sketch of the launching of Scarab on the dustjacket of PM (which was not included in the book).
elsewhere
- The Boatbuilder at Pin Mill who says about Jim Brading: .. he'd trust him anywhere (WD3). (Possible Native prototype: Harry King.)
- the nearest boatbuilder to Secret Water to fix the bent pintle on the Wizard; who is Up the town creek ... A good one close to the Yacht Club (SW22).
- Naval dockyard of the Three Islands: They're building a junk said John ... Naval dockyard ... Visitors not allowed said Captain Flint (ML17).
- Noah: Nancy says that Uncle Jim's quite right .... He said you were bound to be late with her because the only boatbuilder who ever finished a boat on time was Noah, and he only did it because he knew he'd be drowned if he didn't (PM2). See Wikipedia: Noah
