Kind Words

We have cruised as far north as the Broughton archipelago in BC and have crossed some significantly rough water. When things are really nasty we have often expressed how nice it is to know Andy has been keeping StormKing strong and that we are informed about the condition of our boat. Every repair has been executed beautifully.

Andy and his exceptional people can do anything you can imagine. I brought Andiamo in with a very weak and sad teak deck and she left a completely new girl. The quality of workmanship and attitude is second to nowhere in the marine industry I have ever found. They are truly craftsman.

After 20 years and many projects large and small, including following Andy from Olympia to Anacortes, I wouldn’t consider letting any other yard touch SYMRA - regardless of the distance from her home berth in Tacoma.
