 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I asked Sam to completely remove the old Dodger and Bimini on my Beneteau 50 “Sea Dreams” and design and make a new fully enclosed one.The job done was beyond my expectations. I am halfway between NZ and PNG and in the past 10 days have had 35kt squalls and days on end of 25 Kt following seas. The canvas hasn’t moved, flapped, sagged, leaked or anything else. It is still as taut as the day it was installed nearly 12 months ago. Well done Sam,. Thank you

We can now stay protected from the sun, and the family can spend even longer out on the water in comfort. A huge thank you for the comfortable front bed and rear seating setup as well — the quality and workmanship are outstanding. Cheers, guys! Highly recommend the team at Marine Trimming & Canvas Whangārei. — In Joon Park Extreme Fishing NZ
