THESE RECOMMENDED INSTALLERS ARE NOT SUPPLIERS OR DEALERS OF HYDROVANE. To enquire about fit and purchase of a Hydrovane for your boat, contact Will and John Curry . See Contact Us.
Although many of our customers will do the installation themselves, the following is a list of some experienced installers that have been referred to us by our customers. We encourage Hydrovane owners who know of skilled tradesmen or boatyards with Hydrovane installation experience to provide the co-ordinates to us and we will include them on this page.
Any skilled trades-person can do the job. Ensure your installer reads our instructions, and that you read our Warnings Cheat Sheet to see where mistakes could be made. See Technical/Instructions.
