I've used their dry dock in the past and their engineering back up is superb. Very knowledgeable people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very knowledgeable people. Completely agree as they are my go to yard BUT I don't think Dave can accommodate DIY unless it fits other aspects like blacking - the OP gives the impression this will be a longer timeframe than 4 days - on reflection Yelvertoft would be definitely be my choice if its longer term.
