Terry,

Thanks again for your help. I wish to say how happy I am with my SD230. I find it well made very portable and sturdy all at a very competitive price.

I am enclosing two photos of my SD230 tethered to my 40 foot tri, which as you know I sailed across the Atlantic to Newport, Road Island in 2005.

Warm Regards, Brian Gitt. Warwick, New York.

"Just a quick note to let you know how pleased we are with our Excel 230 that we purchased from you in September 2006. She, "Tuuli Too", has seen many hours of active service with absolutely no issues whatsoever. In fact many people have said "Nice new tender!" which is testimony to the fact that even after she gets filthy, a quick wash and hose down brings her up like new. We have of course recommended you to anyone who asks and some who haven't!"

To whom it may concern at Excel Boats:

I bought a 3m inflatable with a 5HP engine and extras (bow canopy) I have to say it was refreshing to buy from such a friendly, trusting and efficient organisation. The service I received was second to none and the process of buying was an enjoyable one. From the moment I picked up the phone there was always a can do attitude with lots of advise on what I really needed. After sales were superb and sent me items that I had damaged without a question. As far as the boat goes it is a great piece of kit that has entertained my two young children (and me!!), it is stable and the engine very reliable and great value for money. WELL DONE TO YOU ALL

Stephen.

Hello Terry,

I received my boat today. Thank you for you very rapid delivery. It is very nice and the first sea trial with my old Yamaha Malta was ok. Have you tried to use 4 stroke 2,5 Suzuki with this boat? How did it work? My boat will be used mainly as a tender in our 32 ft sailing boat –tours are limited to maximum couple hundred of meters or so.

Considering the space inside the boat the 2,6 version could have been ideal choice – however this boat is very light and outer dimensions are as tiny as I thought so we have very good possibility to lift it on the front deck and still have enough space for spinnaker handling etc.

Best regards.

Great Terry,

That was quick across the Atlantic, must have gone in the container the same night after I paid for it, thanks for the prompt service Terry, jolly good show old boy. Carry on.

Jackie and I can’t wait to get out in it, will send you a pic from us in the Caribbean in it for you.

Regards.
