- We offer professional grooming services where required (full groom, cut/polish services available - cost depending on extent of clean, to be confirmed with you prior to work being completed)
- Your boat is displayed on our yard (over 100,000 vehicles passing our location per day and substantial foot traffic through our premise), online via Autostock, Trade Me/Family Boats website and where appropriate on social media
- We offer demonstrations and sea trial options for prospective clients
