Read what others have to say about Keith Marine.

David H. Pasco of  D.H. Pascoe & Company, Inc. had this to say:

An independent Marine Surveyor, D.H. Pascoe & Company, Inc.., was hired by the Finance Company to survey the Princesa during construction Here are excerpts of their detailed report dated March 11, 1998.

"We find that the overall calibre of construction, materials and components utilized to be very good. Indeed, we find it to be much superior to most vessels in its class."

"The overall quality of construction which, as we have mentioned, is demonstrably well above average for its class. Many of the comparable vessels we have seen employ lower quality materials and considerably more cost-cutting in terms of workmanship and detail."

U.S. Senator Bob Graham had this to say:

After a trip on the Entrepreneur II in New York,  United States Senator Bob Graham wrote Keith Marine,  "The Yachtmaster, Frank Mitchell, told me that you had built this ship, and could not have been more complimentary about its construction, style, and the way in which it had been received by its charter customers. I am proud  of this quality of workmanship of Floridians, and look forward to an opportunity to visit your yard when I am next in Palatka."

At the request of a potential Keith Marine customer, Alloyship International, Inc. was asked to research Keith Marine's capabilities. The Motor Yacht Contico was nearing completion and Mr. Miller, the owner of Contico was contacted by Alloyship International. The following are excerpts of the letter by Alloyship International regarding their interview with Mr. Miller.

"He considers the Entire staff at the yard to be extremely talented, and they surely deserve to be recognized as being better than most"

"In all his years he has never come across shipyard people who were as honest in every aspect as the people at Keith Marine. Not one single time was he deceived."

"In essence, it is the old fashioned qualities of honesty, integrity and sincerity that make this yard unique. It is refreshing to hear a customer still praising the owners of a shipyard, at the point of completion of his yacht. Where else can you hear this? I haven't come across this in years."

Maritime Interests Ltd. also was hired by a prospective customer to investigate Keith Marine. Here are excerpts of their letter back to their client.

"They seem easy to get along with, eager to learn new and better ways to improve their product, and have none of the overbearing attitudes that are found in some of the major yards."

"I met an acquaintance who is a manufacturer's representative. At dinner, he had very good things to say about the yard, product and personal integrity. To me, these are the things that matter most."
