Naval Boat Building Yard
The Naval Boat Building Yard (NBBY), located in the Welisara Naval Complex, has built an enviable reputation for its capacity to provide improved GRP/ FRP vessels on schedule and to construct vessels to fit a wide range of customer requirements.
NBBY's products were battle tested in the war against the LTTE and made a vital contribution in the closing stages. Extensive usage of NBBY-built Arrow Boats and Wave Rider Inshore Patrol Craft with lower profile, better speed, improved agility, increased fire power, and ultra-shallow water operating capability has proven critical in winning fights at sea. These craft are currently widely utilized for special operations, coastal protection, harbour defence, and maritime community support.
