I know of a German guy, but not sure whether he is available at present.....

The german who robbed a boat?

I've used all the "expat" experts on the island at one stage or another and my advice is to save your breath and hard earned money and call in the experts from Phuket or pattaya.

Thank Boltd, seriously thinking about it and send it to SEAT Phuket, i ve lost 3 weeks now with ''expat expert'' here and so far probably more bad than good...

Go the Phuket route for sure, too many "Yes I can (or maybe I think I can, but maybe when I can be bothered)" on Samui.

Thank Boltd, seriously thinking about it and send it to SEAT Phuket, i ve lost 3 weeks now with ''expat expert'' here and so far probably more bad than good...

if you call SEAT in phuket, they have a team of fully qualified engineers that come to samui once per month , if you book in you're boat they will do a full inspection, diagnostics check and recommendation onsite ( Samui )

They will give you a warranty on all works they perform and parts supplied at market rates unlike the 1st year apprentice know-it-all's on samui.

every few months when I hear they are coming I have them service my boat so now I have a very good service history and the boat is now running like a Cadillac as opposed to a ( very costly running like sh*t Tractor ) when the samui mechanics had their hands on it.

with all the new and old boats on samui there must be more than enough business on the island for a boat yard to open.
