Tom,

I want to take a few minutes to say thank you for the excellent job in painting Equinox, our Sabre 362 sailboat. From start to finish, you have been wonderful to work with. Your ideas concerning scheduling and colors have been perfect.You have constantly kept us informed with progress notes and photos. The final bill is exactly on estimate with extra work that you kindly performed without fee. Best of all the boat turned out magnificent. We’re delighted with the high quality of the work!…

Just returned from the Marina to look at the follow up job on my boat.  Wow!  Job well done!   Another satisfied customer.  I must say it has been awhile since I have dealt with a company of your caliber.  You have been awesome to deal with since day one!  Your reviews definitely spoke the truth!

You really are one of the only service folks down there that seems to reply and respond as questions get asked.  It truly is a rare customer service level you keep.  It’s amazing how poor others are at it.

I must say that DMS has been at the top of its game this launch season.  Very satisfied customer.

Thanks so much for doing everything you can to get me on the water.  You’ve been fair, reasonable and profoundly helpful.  I really appreciate all you’ve done.

This is my 40th season on this boat.  We’ve tried to maintain and update it, but even the updates are getting on in years.  Nice to know you guys have my back.

Best regards,
Ken

“Oyster Stew” is a 1978 Wasque 32. She has an excellent pedigree, but needed some work. The hull, originally painted flag blue in 2000 was in need of freshening. The decks needed to be repainted, and the doghouse was oxidizing. Diversified Marine was able to get me into the schedule and started working on her in December 2010. What started out as basic cosmetics quickly turned into a major project when rot was found in the doghouse.

Tom kept me abreast of the progress through pictures and went…

I very much appreciate all of the work you and your crew undertook in helping restore Paikea to better-than-new condition. Your professionalism, communication, and work ethic was beyond impressive, and I never had to worry about the outcome of each step of the project. I was particularly pleased with your crew’s uncanny ability to identify problems – and solutions – before I even discovered the issue.

Moreover, the update photos and Facebook posts kept me abreast of each detail even when I coul…

Dear Tom and Crew,

Thanks for your terrific work on “Cato” both last winter and over the years we have owned her. Matt’s terrific Lexan main hatch panels came out looking so nice the owner of the Hinckley across the dock demanded to know where we got them so he could have you make some for him (his came out pretty nice too).

There were some “ships carpentry” items that were past my skill level. Head door hinges etc. They made it onto last winter’s “list” and you guys did a superb job …

My 1996 J/105 had a badly oxidized gel coat, faded decks and several small cracks in the fiberglass decking. I hired Diversified Marine to perform this major restoration for several reasons:

• Quality workmanship: Diversified Marine took the time to lay out his process to restore the boat in detail. It became evident to me that DMS would not take any shortcuts that would lead to a sub-standard job. Throughout the restoration, Tom immediately addressed anything he felt could compromise the end pr…

Last fall my 1997 Gemini 105M was struck by lightning. Almost everything electrical was damaged, and the electronics were fried. Frank Hoot came on board, assessed the damage, developed a plan and executed it perfectly.

Not only was he able to identify the lightning problems, he identified and correct electrical issues carried over from the manufacturer. He brought the boat up to current ABYC standards. This was all done as part of the plan. He also helped me deal with an extremely difficult ve…
