It's why local craft owners in Netley keep coming back to us.
Network commissioning is where most nav installs fall down — we get the device IDs, instances and groupings right so the setup works as designed.
We know which marinas have lift-out facilities, which require tender access, and which are walk-on — and plan callouts around it.
We install and integrate Raymarine, B&G, Garmin and Simrad setups, with proper attention to the data backbone that makes everything task together.
The fleet ranges from classic wooden yachts to modern production cruisers — we've worked on most of them.
We'd rather take an extra hour to do something neatly than rush it and have to come back.
