What do my clients think...

 

Last year we had the fortune of employing Captain Bob of Dockside Boat Repair's services for our vessel, the Puma. The Puma is a research vessel owned by The University of Houston to conduct water, fish and sediment sampling

in the Houston Ship Channel and Galveston Bay. We dry dock the Puma each year for several months and most of the time on the water is during the summer months. Because of this work calendar our vessel needs constant

care and attention in order for it to run well. Captain Bob provided us with exactly what we needed and he was extremely accommodating to our hectic schedule. The vessel had not had any major work done to it in years other than battery

replacement and oil changes. Captain Bob took it upon himself to provide guidance and consultation on what he saw as potential problems or issues with the Puma. Since we rotate graduate students on a regular basis there is no one person who is consistently in charge of our boat. It was a relief to find someone who would not only do the necessary work but also go above and beyond to provide recommendations for maintenance and general upkeep. We now have the confidence to begin our summer sampling knowing our vessel is in good shape and we also know we can rely on Captain Bob for future maintenance and repairs as they are needed. I recommend Captain Bob's services. We find him to be a valuable asset to ensuring the smooth operation of our research efforts.

Sincerely, Maria Modelska Associate Director, Research Programs SSPEED Center

 

"Dear Captain Edwards, I am pleased to provide this letter as a recommendation for services provided to me. During the past approximately three years you have worked on my sailboat on several occasions at my requests.

The services provided during this time period included the following; Replacement of engine transmission - Replace engine starter - Replace engine heat exchanger  - Replace fuel pump Install and calibrate a Ray Marine autopilot system -

Replace the packing gland on rudder post - Repair fiberglass around scupper in stern - Replace the bilge pump. All of these tasks were completed in a timely and professional manner and at a cost that was within the quoted estimated costs.

Additionally you have freely shared your expertise with me and provided invaluable advice and guidance regarding the care and maintenance of the boat. I look forward to continuing to use your professional services as needed."  

Sincerely, James L. Starr Professor Texas A&M
