great workmanship in Trinidad?

Like many others here in the Virgin Islands, I sustained damage to my 38" oceangoing sailboat and am having trouble finding a yard and craftsman to do the necessary repairs in the near future. Does anyone have information ion excellent workman for glass, wood and metal repair in Trinidad?

Re: great workmanship in Trinidad?

You need latest info/current references as things change all the time. I had good work done there years ago.
I talked with cruisers once there, then got bids from 3. Asked about their current projects I could go see etc. Ask a ton of detailed questions when they give you a bid to get an idea of how they work etc. I'm sure you can do the same. Be your own supervisor in any event, as "goals" need to be clear along the way. (ditto for american yards!)
