“When Yachtworks say they can carry out a job - whether it be electronics, machining, carpentry, design or repairs to boat structure- they have the skills and equipment to do it. They also fully back up their work without question.”

2nd June 2003

We are delighted to write a short note on the quality and service provided by Yachtworks to us during the preparation of  “Freewheel” for her forthcoming circumnavigation.

For anyone unfamiliar with Turkey, as we were, it has been a revelation to spend the last six months here because nearly everyone we have met has been polite, friendly and extremely helpful.

The Yachtworks the managers and staff are exemplary in this regard and it has been a real pleasure having them onboard. However, even more important perhaps, is the professionalism of their work and organisation.

Unlike many other friendly and enthusiastic boat service providers, when Yachtworks say they can carry out a job - whether it be electronics, machining, carpentry, design or repairs to boat structure- they have the skills and equipment to do it. They also fully back up their work without question.

Having spend all our working life in the marine industry we believe we have the knowledge to evaluate Yachtworks and we recommend them without reservations.

So to all at Yachtworks, once again, many thanks for all your help and friendship.

“Yusuf: The thinking mans boating contact in Bodrum.”

June 2003

Yusuf:

The thinking mans boating contact in Bodrum.

What can I say. I lent him my boat ( “Tetra”-rebuilt at Yat Lift when Yusuf was there) to sail from Thailand to India. He lent me a West System manual.

And “Tetra” sailed to SE Asia and back (yes - that includes the Red Sea ) without fault – normal wear and tear excepted - after being totally rebuilt.
