  Awful. I paid over £500 for my boat to be reblacked at this marina, a job which should have taken a minimum of 5days. 2 days after it was craned out I received a phone call from them that my boat had been put back into the water! Given the time needed for surface preparation, allowing the boat to dry, applying the blacking and allowing it to dry I can only conclude that insufficient time had been given to these steps. Furthermore it had been raining for 2 of the 3 days the boat was out and there are no covers or sheds for the boat to be put under. I argued my case with the manager but my concerns were not entertained and nonchalantly dismissed. Having paid in advance (as required by the marina) I had no option but to leave. I have recently had the boat out again and found the hull to be in much worse condition than before it the work was performed by abc, as virtually none of the blacking remained from their job and the steel had been left unprotected. It had even peeled away, in large sheets, above the water line. There are other blacking and marine services in the area, use them, donot touch these jokers with your 10ft barge poles! N.b. Their hire services are a joke as well, virtually no training given to hire boaters and when they then cause accidents the marina couldn't care less. In conclusion, this is by far the worst marina I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with.
