⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Work and Even Better People We brought our boat to Stones Boatyard in Nanaimo for bottom paint, zincs, through-hulls, a new propeller, and lifelines. Dan and Mitch did most of the work and did a fantastic job — professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. One of the owners, Andrue, stopped by to introduce himself and made us feel genuinely welcome. We stayed on board while on the hard for a week, which was super convenient as we’d traveled from Port McNeill. Highly recommend Stones for anyone looking for quality marine service and great customer care.
We were visiting Nanaimo for a day of fishing with our grandchildren and ran into a problem with our boat - which we only discovered at the boat launch. The team from Stones, led by the Service Manager - Mark, were amazing. They were able to fix my boat quickly and competently, their pricing was fair and best of all everyone we dealt with was polite, friendly and super helpful - including the service manager, the mechanic, the cashier, the staffer who helped us get the boat into their yard, etc. We can't recommend this team highly enough and we will start towing our boat up to Nanaimo in the future for any major works.
By far the best boatyard for service ,location and amenities . Staff is awesome thanks to Rob, Andrew and Mitch . Very knowledgeable and helpful for any boat questions. Pricing is very fair considering everything you get all in one boat yard in Nanaimo. Located in Departure bay with their own Chandelier, Carlos Pub for good food and drinks. This is our spot to take out boat to keep her in tip top shape. Thank Stones 😎
We’ve just returned home after a visit to Nanaimo for a haul out at Stones Boatyard. The experience exceeded our expectations in a few different ways. They were so accommodating and were able to complete everything we needed done in a very timely way. They were also competent, providing advice and recommendations, with years of experience behind them, and geared to the particulars of the boat. They were respectful, treating our boat with care.To Andrew, Mark (and Sasha!), Mitch, Lee and last but not least, the guy who scrubbed the hull so well (didn’t catch his name) as well as the rest of the boat crew, thank you for a job well done!! Charlie and Ellen
Mitch and Mark are life savers, they helped me all the way thru my repairs and guided my novice ass through what needs to be done now and what can wait till my next service! Thanks guys and all staff at Stones!!
