I was looking for boat engine parts on the internet that were unavailable
in Fiji and tried Fullers/Marine Direct, I discovered I'd made the right
choice, reply was fast and service helpful.  The Credit card billing method by email was clearly set out and very satisfactory.  Bob H. Suva Fiji.  (Bob is rejuvinating a Perkins WWII vintage engine and gearbox in his sailing boat. April 2003 )

When I needed spare parts for my engine, and local sources where all so expensive, Marine Direct provided the required parts promptly and at unbelievably good prices!

Phillip, Melbourne. 26 August 2003.  (Phillip was after some very hard to get OMC sterndrive parts.)

This is Manolo, writing from New York on behalf of my sister and my friend in Spain.  They received the Cummins manifolds that you made for the engine in perfect condition. They wish to congratulate you and your company on the quality of manufacture and on the care with which they were packaged and shipped. The manifolds have already been installed and they were a perfect fit."
12 August 2003

I called marine Direct on a Saturday morning and explained my tale of woe.  The situation had a real sense of urgency as the boat race was on the following weekend and Airlie Beach Qld is a long way away.  I needed two manifolds and risers urgently.  The effort shown by Marine Direct to get the parts from the warehouse to the Whitsundays in five working days was excellent.  Teryy Brown, Whitsindays North Queensland.  September 2003

Dear Scott, My sister and husband in Madrid Spain have asked me to tell you that the Cummins 555 engine head and the rest of the shipment has reached them without any snags. Thanks to your good offices, they could track the freight and assert their right to have it delivered to their door. And delivered to their door it was!! Regards, Manolo New York. October 2003.   (Goodness knows what Manolo's family did with 50kg of steel engine head in their home! We normally supply parts for boats!)

"Scott, Please find enclosed a cheque for $8138. This is the final payment for the engine I have ordered. Thank you for your assistance with this matter and I look forward to any business we may do in the future. John O." Country Victoria. 17 September 2003.

Dear Scott,
Just a quick note to thank you for great  service. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. I t was very good of you to personally bring the manifold parts I needed when you flew over to Perth.  .I don't think you could get much better service any where.  I am pleased to say that my old classic Hartley is once again running well. You can be assured that I shall be passing the word around about Marine Direct.

Hey Scott,
It just arrived.... at 11:30am Thursday.Thanks again, great service, great price!
Bruce (Kiwi customer)

Scott, Got the goods today.  You could possibly go another 20% increase (across the board except my orders!) for items under $200 as I doubt people will price shop in this range.  Boats are like pets and you don't begrudge a vet bill.  Good luck , very good service.  Dave  August 05.

Money for this item has been deposited into your
account!  Regards Leo!   BTW Love your website I will be back soon for more
items! Thanks again  September 05.

Dear Scott,

for such an old motor, much to my relief, but the Parts arrived today by
overnight courier, thank you very much for the prompt service. Payment
method via credit card on line is very secure and easy to use. Thank you
very much Marine Direct Australia I'll certainly recommend your business to
anyone in need.
