In 2010 my
boat was struck twice by lightening and an
insurance nightmare ensued.... I'm going to post about that in another thread. But inside this nightmare there was a small gem. The
repair facility that replaced all of our
electronics, rewired the
boat, and did a million things that were their responsibility..... The
repair firm was Atlantis
Marine in
St Martin.
Just wanted to give a kudos and my hearty recommendation about Gui (the proprietor) and Atlantis
Marine if you need any
electrical work done.
We also dealt with
Lagoon Marina and FKG
rigging.
Lagoon Marina was very understanding and patient with the weeks that turned to months and then nearly a year.... FKG
rigging only had a small part in the repair and was only involved for two short periods, but the
work was done quickly and for the
price quoted. My payment was delayed and they were patient as well. I haven't seen the actual work yet as the crew is just about to set sail and bring it back in a few days, but I expect it will be professionally done.
Budget Marine had a few small
parts as well, and the staff there today even stayed late to make sure my crew got what they needed to do some final work before setting off rather than making them wait till Monday.
Atlantis Marine however went beyond just doing the
electrical (90% of the
repairs to be honest though) and coordinated extra work at FKG, on the engines by a guy named Erik,
dinghy repair, and much much more. Gui at Atlantis went far beyond what was required of them and really helped us out through the
insurance company nightmare. Had Gui not helped with the extras I would have had to make several personal trips to
St Martin or send someone at great expense.
