Boatyard experience.
My experience of the boatyard has always been extremely positive, Spencer and Victoria have bent over backwards to help me on numerous occasions from helping me remove and dispose of my toilet tank to jumping in and helping me two pack my boat.
Also supplying cheap coal and a wide range of fixtures and fittings, and always ready to give helpful advice I heartily recommend them.
