I needed a really quick fix on an outboard for my sailing boat, and as usual Nic was on it straight away, extremely helpful and knowledgeable, and a good guy. Highly recommend. Thanks Nic.

Nic was very knowledgeable and soon sorted us with a new outboard for our cruiser. A great price and included fitting by Nic.

I have visited Nick at NWS Marine numerous times over the last 3 years. Every occasion I have visited NWS nothing has been too much for Nick. His knowledge of anything that floats especially jet skis is second to none. Everything is explained in detail, nothing is ever too much. It’s not just skis or boats Nick can assist with, he supplied & set up a Custom SBS Jet Ski trailer for me, ensuring I was completely happy with everything. Whether it’s jet skis, boats or trailers, you’re in safe hands with NWS.

Very pleased with the initial service on my Yamaha FT8GEPL. Nick was flexible on timing so I was able to drop the engine off mid morning, and collect it mid afternoon on my way home.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend NWS Marine! I went to see Nik at the beginning of this year for information on a Yamaha jet ski, he gave me a great quote and really looked after me throughout the process. Although I didn’t end up purchasing a new ski from him, I bought a second-hand one elsewhere, and Nik has still been amazing. He serviced my ski, provides top-class support, and is always happy to share his knowledge and advice. Really genuine and helpful guy. I’ll definitely be going back,
