My experience of using Blackness Marine has been fantastic. Their yard, dry stack and hard standing is brilliant. Becky and all the team dealt with everything professionally and honestly couldn’t do enough to help. It isn’t the easiest to get to by road BUT that’s besides the point. Launch and recovery facilities are better, and smoother than most marina’s I have used and staff engaged and super professional.
