LET'S START
“Aaron meticulously managed every facet of the project, which played a crucial role in keeping us within our budget. His attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident throughout the entire process. By the end of the refit, our boat surpassed our expectations; it didn’t just look restored, but rather it looked better than new!”

Geoff and Kathy Williams

Owner Testimonial

My wife and I own a 55 foot carbon HH55 catamaran named Ticket to Ride, and we have been living aboard and mostly on the hook for six years. Ticket to Ride was ready for a major refresh — new topcoat, renewed coppercoat, and expert attention to a range of maintenance projects. Confident in New Zealand’s reputation for world-class marine services, we chose Marine Reflections in Tauranga for the work.

Getting bids from boatyards on a vessel they had not seen was no small task, but from our first contact I felt assured that Aaron Layne and his team were the right choice. After a thorough and extensive refit, I can say that I am extremely happy with that decision.

Aaron, his team, and the sub-contractors he engages have been incredibly responsive, honest, and delivered beautiful work. Aaron coordinated riggers, canvas, electrical, mechanical, and the boatyard. His team was diligent and accurate in reporting time and materials used, and Aaron himself was always available for conversation and respectful of my wishes.

The scope of the work evolved during the project, and Aaron’s team handled each change with professionalism and skill.

In summary, I can only give the highest praise to Aaron and his team. I would not hesitate to engage Marine Reflections again in the future and am happy to recommend them to anyone considering a refit or maintenance project.
