Welders:
Please note, welders may require part payments up front to cover a portion of costs before work is done.
If you require temporary mooring for your boat leading into before & after slippage, this is available so please ask management for cost for this.
If you do require an emergency welder but are not sure until vessel is out of water, please make sure you have touched base with them first to advise that you may need them & find out all costings & their terms beforehand.
