Testimonials

Adam Porter
Canal Boat Magazine

Confident start from Finesse as you might expect from a firm that has such a wealth of experience behind it.

"It’s a quality shell goes almost without saying, but this is matched by the quality of the the best hulls you can buy, the Tyler Wilson family of companies can provide top quality fitting out, too. CB workmanship inside, too. Everything is well made, everything feels solid, and everything fits properly."

Gordon Scott

To everyone in the Finesse team, we would like to express our sincere thanks for making the experience of buying our narrow boat a truly wonderful one.

"The whole process from design and planning, steelwork and paint through to final “fit out” and launch has been most exciting and enjoyable. Whilst your first class knowledge and workmanship in all areas has resulted in a high quality build we have also felt that our thoughts and opinions have been valued and incorporated along the way."

Dorset certainly holds its own against the output of the UK's best boat-builders.

The owners are experienced boaters and chose Finesse for its competence and ability to produce the bespoke boat they wanted. it may not be cheap, but Dorset certainly holds its own against the output of the UK's best boat-builders. It’s a great craft and Finesse is certainly a company to look out for in the future.
