What Our Clients Say

Donald Griffin
Boat owner, Oromahoe

I know a shipwright when I see one, and this is some fantastic workmanship! In NC USA we do some of the same works rescuing yesterday's sailing vessels at Gryphon Yachts.

From start to finish, Blair Boats experience was perfect. I can never thank you all enough.

The team at Blair Boats have been a pleasure to work with. Their honest and fair appraisals are backed by craftsmanship, professionalism and the attitude that no problem cannot be solved. All that and thoroughly likable people as well!  

10/10 recommended.

Pirimanu

Blair Boats undertook a very detailed refurbishment without compromise to my classic 1968 9.5m launch. Their meticulous, and sympathetic approach (given the boat’s pedigree) from start to completion is testimony to their expertise and professionalism.

We're very grateful for the great work the Blair Boats team did on our classic yacht. They were prompt and always did what they said they would do.

They provided regular updates so we always knew how progress was going and ran options past us when decisions were needed. We felt like they were in our corner in trying to get the best and most practical results. For sure, we would highly recommend them.

Raffles

I transported my 12m launch “Raffles” into Blair’s boatyards’ undercover shed to replace the teak decking in the cockpit and glass/paint the decks. 

Great to be undercover for this work with a good team of tradesmen who shared a variety of work skills to complete this fairly large task and a variety of other items that cropped up at the time.

Laurie is easy to deal with and would highly recommend him to tackle marine repairs.
