TESTIMONIALS

We have no problem recommending your propellers, the workmanship is first class. With your propellers, we find the vessel sails faster and with very impressive fuel savings. 

Sail faster and save fuel say Macduff Shipyards

John Watt, Managing Director Macduff Shipyards.

The revs are spot on and towing fine we are cut back anything between 200 and 250 revs and as much speed as we need. It’s like a different boat with no vibration whatsoever. I would just like to thank you [for] supplying exactly what we wanted nowadays it doesn’t always happen and the excellent service you provided.

It’s the Teignbridge Way

Kenny MacNab

I did not expect to gain much in terms of fuel use per mile, but the perfect balance of your prop certainly makes every mile a pleasure.

Every Mile is a Pleasure
