    Been over a decade since I used them but their shop on James island used to be great. Expensive though.

    Curious your experience. I’ve had a few things done there. No huge complaints other than the lack of communication sometimes.

    I sent them a bunch of pictures they asked for to quote re spraying my non skid and fixing some spider crack. Never heard a word back. I’d steer clear as well. Too many other good fiberglass guys. Check out total boat repair in Charleston. Owner is a great guy. Just had them do some cushions for me and they turned out great. Plan to re do the deck next winter with them.

    Repair scratches and dings on the bottom and repaint. Repair or replace rubrail. Reword running lights. Mount a lightbar on the bow. Possibly GatorGlide the bottom.

    I know the guy with the backwards steering. At least he came to Greenville to fix it.
