One captain wrote with this: "I have used the services of Stem to Stern Yacht Care Services, Inc. in Ft. Lauderdale. They were the best repair facility that I have used in years. They were on time and their work was very professional. I had extensive electrical and gel coat work completed on time and on budget. I highly recommend that the services of this organization be used if you need work done around Ft. Lauderdale."
Thoroughly investigate any repair shop prior to committing to an expensive repair job. Talk with other boaters to determine their experiences with any local shop.
