As a former fleet Manager of Yachting Partners International and long-time superyacht captain it is with great pleasure that I can commend a yard that not only did an excellent job but also did it with great attitude, at a fair price, on time and with excellent workers. Works...

The Varadoiro (boatyard) de Xufre, run by Nito – a lovely man who speaks excellent English and offers a car to clients for their occasional use – offers a 10% discount off haulout and storage to OCC members, and an additional 10% for payment up front. The place has an excellent...

Salut les Heossiens, J’ai passe une semaine en novembre 2017 au chantier de “Varadero de Xufre” (www.xufre.es), sur la petite Ile de “Ila de Arousa” en Galice espagnole, et je voulais partager avec vous cette experience, en pensant que certains...

Peter and William just having the time of our lives. This is what makes sailing enjoyable and I never thought I would say this of a boatyard. The highest approval and the reasons. Large 180 ton lift no need to remove forestay or backstay large beam vessels not getting squeezed....
