Testimonials

“Being a boat owner, it can be challenging to find the right person who you trust to handle the more difficult jobs on your boat. This not only includes the ability to perform the work in a competent and dependable manor, but also to respond to your initial call and subsequent concerns in a timely manner. Over the last twelve years, from engine maintenance to fuel line repair, that right person for me has been Marty Buxton. Bottom line: Marty has made my boat better and my boating experience more enjoyable. I recommend him 100 percent.”

“I don’t know if there is an official title, ‘Master Boat Builder’, but regardless, that is how I would describe Martin Buxton of Buxton Boat Works. He has literally a life- time of experience and has amassed a body of knowledge of anything and everything to do with boats. His estimates read like a how-to guide. He spells out in detail every task he will perform and spells out each material he’ll use. And the results are top quality work.

I think you would be crazy to hire anyone else to work on your boat.”

“Over the past 30 years we have called on Buxton Boat Works to help with various mechanical and aesthetic fleet challenges. Martin Buxton is never short on advice protecting us and giving the true big picture and estimate. We count on his Governmental Environmental protection regulations advice and timely response to repairing our emergencies . Our every 3 months automatic maintenance checkup only takes half a day but gives us all some sense of protection and safety from bigger problems.”

“I have been using Buxton Boat Works for almost 30 years.  Marty and his crew do excellent work on everything they do which includes all areas of maintenance, repairs, equipment installations, paint, gel coat, varnish and almost everything else. Marty is a perfectionist and really takes pride in the quality of his work.  I have used Buxton Boat Works for almost all the work on my last 3 boats and highly recommend them.”

“As a boat owner I took a long time to find an honest and trustworthy person in the business and I couldn’t be happier with the work Marty has done rebuilding my yacht. As the owner of a classic racing yacht Marty understood from the start what I was looking for in a person to refurbish her. Marty designed the exterior paint scheme, the interior color scheme, the galley, electronics package and head redesign– everything is just perfect. When it came time for the repower to a new Yanmar Marty and his crew pulled the old engine out and did the repower without a glitch. He always takes the utmost care not to scratch paint or varnish and leaves the boat spotless when done. I always get compliments on how beautiful my boat is thanks to Marty and his work.”
