Rcr helped us and we will never forget how good knowledgeable they are

[Glynda joyce]

Never ever go anywhere without joining them they have saved  our life's twice and  just came out to our boat to make sure it was safe after abc marina serviced it and damaged it the rcr are amazing don't ever run them down.cant believe what they have done for us

[The Bearwood Boster]

I am now realllllly intrigued...🤔

[Glynda joyce]

Intrigued  about what

[Alan de Enfield]

I suppose there has to be one sucess story, but it will never balance out the dozens of horror stories of RCR creating problems - just ask @Tracy D'arth

[Glynda joyce]

All can say is after being told by abc marina. Who done a full service we almost drowned engine was overfilled with oil abc broke a pipe oil pouring out. Smoke everywhere oil everywhere marina told us we could go to one of there other marinas to get it sorted it was 100 miles away 161 locks away don't know how we got here then told we needed new engine called rcr out again. Nothing wrong with engine service put to much oil in wrong fan belt and they told us the truth

[matty40s]

Ah, I will get my wallet out and join them now, do you have the account number, sort code and membership forms available Glynda?

[StephenA]

You joined the site just to post that?

[Rob-M]

The last RCR guy who came out to us was from ABC so you were lucky you didn't get the same person.

 

We were left with several litres of diesel in the bilges as the RCR guy didn't have any soak mats and opened up diesel pipes without any concern for where the fuel was going to go.

 

What was the life threatening situation you were left in...?

[wandering snail]

I've heard the good and the bad. Bronze cover came with our insurance and have to say, they were persistent in nailing the problem with our engine non-start, even though it took several call outs. This included a heavy battery being back packed a long walk down the towpath to get to us at one point and one of their engineers in particular persisting to get to the bottom of the problem.

That is exactly the sort of problems that people are getting with RCR - I wonder if it is because RCR subcontract the work out and one of the ones they use is ABC?

Yes I did are you just ignorant  or a bored sole

[pete.i]

I used RCR twice in my ten years of boat ownership and they were brilliant. It's only the whingers on here that get the bad experiences.

Do soles get bored? I suppose being the bottom of a shoe must have its limitations...

 

 

Back on track - a friend had the misfortune to lose his boat this summer (due to weird EA behaviour with locks causing a sinking), RCR guys came to help float it and he has nothing but praise for their professionalism

[Glynda joyce]

Thank you they have been so good I just wanted to praise them I'm 70 years old and have so much respect for them after helping us. And have never meet such rude people in my life can't wait to get home back to London were people ate a lot more grateful thank you for that
