Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show
The boat show weather curse continued again this year when the first few days of the show were literally blown away. Thanks to Hurricane Sandy and the resulting tidal surge, just trying to get to the show was a mission, and would have actually been easier in a boat than a car. When the […]
St Kilda sees double
If you are in the market for a solid, stable day boat with lots of room and all the amenities, have a look at a Glacier Bay powered catamaran. While installing David’s FAB Dock, I was mightily impressed with his boat. But in true Melbourne fashion, the weather gods really turned it on for us. We started out at 9am in cold drizzle, which cleared briefly to patches of sunshine, followed by thunder, rain and then hail, to then clear up to a scorching hot afternoon where we both got duly sunburnt.
Hands up who loves the boat ramp?
Certainly not FAB Dock customers. We are seeing more and more customers ditching the trailer and the launching and retrieval hassle of the boat ramp for the simplicity and serenity of being able to jump on the boat at a minute’s notice and head out into the wide blue yonder. Even if it is only […]
North Queensland Starting to See the Benefits
Cairns put on a beautiful Spring day for the latest installation in the tropics. After seeing a couple of other FAB Docks in a marina on his way around there for a drink, Phil went home to Google this “FAB Dock” to find out more about it. After some further research he decided it was […]
Mandurah Boat Show
I am always greeted with beautiful blue skies and bright sunshine whenever I venture out West. It is a mirror of the people and the attitude; radiant and positive. That is, except for the weekend of the one of the largest boat shows in Australia. It absolutely poured down, blew a gale and was […]
Wow, what a week out West!
Three more FAB Docks in the water, a bunch of new boats measured up for FAB Docks and that is before we even start to account for the Mandurah Boat Show. A big thank you to Chris Box from Martin Box Marine for organising a berth at the show to showcase the FAB Dock to […]
Busy Day in Sydney Harbour
Sydney turned on the charm for my recent trip to Australia’s harbour city and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute I spent installing the latest three FAB Docks. And three of the nicest people I have ever met who will fit perfectly into our rapidly expanding FAB Dock family. Adam and his 265 Sea Ray […]
Adelaide gets it’s first
With more and more FAB Docks being installed in South Australia, it is surprising that it has taken this long to get the first one into Adelaide itself. Herb recently took delivery of his FAB Dock to protect his 40 foot Flybridge from the surprising amount of growth given the cooler waters in that part […]
Busy weekend in WA
WA is booming and that is keeping us busy supplying FAB Docks to those boaties out West who have very nice boats, but no time to worry about the maintenance that normally goes with leaving their boat in the water. When you are working that hard, you want to play just as hard, so if […]
FAB Dock continues to innovate
After months of design testing we finally installed the first side entry FAB Dock under Henry’s magnificent Bavaria 35 on the Central Coast of NSW recently. It helped that we got our first sunny day of all our trips to that part of the world, and it really made a difference. Now we know why […]
