WHAT DO OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT US?

Thank you to the team at Pleisure Marine. Have been using Pleisure Marine for service and repairs since 2014. Always prompt and on time with appointments. Damon even responded to an urgent gen-set problem on Christmas morning at Rottnest.  All works professionally done and cleaned up afterwards and at reasonable transparent charges. Highly recommend Pleisure Marine.

My trust in Pleisure Marine has been rewarded as they completed major works on my boat including rebuilding two engines within budget and to a high degree of professionalism. They have been friendly, informative and I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Jonathon Downes Sunseeker Carmague 44
We have used the services of Pleisure Marine for several years to maintain our MAN engines and our Kohler genset. During that time we have found Damon, Emma and the team at Pleisure Marine to be very reliable and conduct themselves in a most professional manner. When required, Pleisure Marine have made available a mechanic at short notice to effect repairs, something every “boatie” appreciates.

WHERE DID IT ALL BEGIN?

Damon was bought up by a family passionate for the water. Damon’s pop had a sailboat called Windsome that he frequently took the family to Rottnest on and Damon was encouraged to take up sailing down at Shelley Foreshore from a young age. As the teen years kicked in, as did the ‘need for speed’ and Damon traded in the sails power for horse power.

The Instep work experience program at All Saints College benefited Damon greatly in his new passion and he was awarded with an Apprenticeship into Heavy Duty Diesel Mechanic’s. Throughout his time, he worked predominantly on Volvo Penta and Yanmar marine and industrial engines and generators as well as MANs. Working for large international brands allowed Damon to travel and expand his knowledge both interstate and overseas including travelling to Nuremberg for MAN Common-Rail training.
