Marine Services Review My honest opinion of the Marine Services we encounter as we travel.
Posted on January 1, 2012 - by Memphis Istaboa

Welcome to Marine Services Review

All Reviews Welcome

So what’s the purpose of this blog? It’s not for profit… not for spite… you’ll never see an ad and it won’t be used to gain favor.

It’s about accountability in the Marine Services business.

I wanna tout the honest professionals and out the ne’er-do-wells. I’m gonna post my experiences with these companies and individual contractors in the posts of this blog. My intent is to express my opinions and recount my experiences in short narratives; relating the work, attitude, and overall experience while dealing with these marine services companies as we travel and find them necessary.

Within the posts of this blog anyone, including the subjects of praise or the opposite of, can make comments that are in agreement with my opinions or not. Fellow boaters who have had good or bad experiences can share them here. Every boater that keeps a blog should do the same thing. Speak up! Word of mouth is cool, but our words will carry further online. Maybe we will find more positives than negatives and share those experiences and contacts for our common good.

This can be a good thing, could be fun.

Please make your opinions known and comment here… publicly or anonymously, they’ll show in the comment section.

We’ll see what happens.

Here’s to safe and happy cruises,

Cheers,

Bob

    Thanks for the comment… send me an email if you have any questions. Istaboa@gmail.com
    There are some good folks here, but unfortunately there are also some that are not so good. We’ve been here for a few years and met most of the boat fixers between Vero and Ft Lauderdale. Let me know if I can help.

    Great Service and since we are here in Stuart having work done it helps to know who to use and who to stay away from.
