Testimonial
“Adrian & Alex skippered Theodorus from Greenland to Chatham Docks for her survey. I was on board and experienced their friendly professionalism on the journey down. Adrian carried out the survey and four weeks later they skippered her back to the marina at Greenland Dock. I highly recommend them and shall definitely ask them to survey her in the future!
