THE SHOP
The Sheppard’s name and famous blue logo has been familiar with yachtsmen cruising through the Mediterranean and further afield for over 70 years.
Sheppard’s used to be known as a small and friendly marina with a good chandlery shop and, even though the marina is now part of Ocean Village, the chandlery shop is still the one stop shop for yachties it has always been. It is located at the exit of the covered car park at Ocean Village.
The majority of yachts which make up the market in Gibraltar are serious, long distance cruisers. These boats are hard on their equipment and have quite different requirements to those of a day-boat or luxury day-cruiser.
Sheppard’s specialises in the sailing cruisers sector but also covers power cruisers and day boats. The standard stuff is all available, such as ropes, fenders, paints and pumps.
THE WORKSHOP
Sheppard’s workshop operates a repair service for most equipment found on a modern yacht and can replace rigging or install new hardware and systems.
We are dealers for Mercury Mercruiser and Volvo Penta engines with officially trained mechanics. While we specialise in Mercury and Volvo Penta engines we also service or repair the many other makes too.
We offer equipment installation, electrical system repairs, GRP repairs, rigging, stainless steel fabrication, machining and all mechanical repairs. We can haul out motor boats up to 4 tons displacement.
Yacht Electrics and Electronics
Sheppard’s Chandlery specialises in the sale and installation of Raymarine equipment, and prices are generally 15% below the UK RRP ex VAT.
Sheppard’s also offer Victron equipment at generally lower prices than are available in the UK including Lithium Smart batteries

This chandlers has been in Gibraltar as long as I can remember. Not been here for many years so it was great to see it still as good as ever. Its good to visit a well stocked chandlery instead of flicking through pages and buttons on a website to order stuff.
Well you learn something new every day. I always call in Sheppards when I'm at Ocean Village for bits and bobs of Chandlery, and in all the time I have been going, I wasnt aware that they also carried work that is listed under the "Workshop" heading in the discription above.
A well established Chandlery at Ocean Village marina. Shephards has been going as long as I can remember and it was great to call in recently and see first hand that it is moved with the times. I think it is still run by the family, so it retains that personal touch that so many of these chain stores don't. Its round the back of some buldings at the marina.
Probably the most established Chandlers on this famous rock. Its very well stocked, and what they dont have, they will get for you pretty quickly. Family run offering a friendly service and advice.
