It is so hard to find a person and service that you trust with your boat. I did lots of research before I found Kane. Well I can save you all the trouble. Kane is your guy. Highly recommended. Absolutely fantastic service. He cares for your boat as if it was his own. I always feel confident that my boat is being taken care of and that everything will be done to perfection. Kane is 100% reliable. If he finds anything else that needs fixing (which often happens) he lets me know. He is thorough, open and fairly priced.

Kane at Westcoast Marine has serviced my boat for the last three years, and provided pre-purchase inspections on prospective boats I've been looking to buy. I couldn't recommend his services more. He is thorough, open and fairly priced. I'd highly recommend Westcoast Marine for anyone looking to buy a boat and wanting an inspection, or for on-going services.

Booked Kane in to do a thorough service of a recently purchased boat. His attention to detail is outstanding, which unfortunately for me meant he found quite a few things that needed to be done. Nobody likes bad news but he managed the whole process very openly and professionally and provided me with details every step of way including one of the most detailed quotes I've seen. Has followed up a few times post-job to make sure all ok. Excellent service.
