What People Are Saying

“Tim from Peak Marine was an absolute legend and a pleasure to work with. The pre-sale survey was extremely thorough and professional. Tim took the time to walk us through some of the key items identified during the survey, which was helpful to reflect on once we had the report. His extensive knowledge and experience with yachts and sailing were evident. Would highly recommend his services. Thank so much Tim.”

— Ilana Kelly

Having owned several other powered vessels - small to large, this is my first sailboat purchase, and I am quite green. Tim was extremely thorough Professional and supportive throughout the whole process with a wealth of knowledge, and was truly an amazing communicator.”
