Our Customers Say:

Today we took delivery of our brand new Jeanneau Merry fisher 1295 Fly Motor Yacht. The team at Morgan Marine are exceptional at delivering customer service, advice, engineering, you name it - they have got it nailed. We asked for some modifications to the specification which they gladly helped with, upgraded access ladder to fly, synthetic teak to decks and upgraded nav package to name a few. The ladder was designed and fabricated onsite (amazing job) and the whole package was ready on time as promised. Thanks so much guys.

Thought I’d send you a note to say how pleased I am with the MF 1095 and all the systems that you’ve put in. The boat has done 20 hours and the engines will be serviced shortly. There have been no issues arising and all systems function properly.

Can I take this opportunity to thank you for taking the time helping me with this. It is refreshing to work with you and your organisation and receive great customer service along with outstanding attention to detail. Normally I just get stock answers because I am asking technical questions which would involve doing some work.

Just to thank you all for a very efficient and professional service. Thank you for delivering our boat to the Norfolk Broads and sorting out our bow thruster.

I love an “anything can be done” attitude! Wish you & your team were closer to Poole

Thank you for all your help and fantastic service
