Boat owners have their say about Garhauer gear
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SAY
We receive so many compliments from boat owners who have used Garhauer gear on their yachts. Here are some of their letters
"We have now replaced all our blocks, genoa cars, boom vang and main traveller with Garhauer, brilliant. We have not had one gear failure this year from hardware. The Garhauer gear is made a little more robust than the other brands and is designed perfectly for cruisers looking for a long, trouble free life"
Lyn and John Martin, Directors, Island Cruising Association SY "WINDFLOWER" www.islandcruising.co.nz
"Garhauer blocks have out performed some major brands that I still had on the boat"
Peter Anderson, owner of TAYANA 55 "Max Grody 11" says after 50,000 mile+ circumnavigation.

"We saw Garhauer marine hardware at the Auckland Boat Show on the Viaduct, so when it came time to upgrade the blocks on our boat we further investigated the product. We remembered that it was highly polished stainless and very nice looking gear and that it would enhance the visual look of Mandarla. The prices amazed us for the quality and workmanship and we appreciated that it came with a ten year unconditional warranty"
- Robin and Jacqueline Dudley from SY "MANDARLA", Warwick 50
NZ Navy Adventure Training Centre Sailing Instructor says...
NZ Navy Adventure Training Centre uses Garhauer Marine Hardware on the 40ft Navy Chico yachts. Sailing Instructor Hamish Ivey says he "fully endorses and recommends Garhauer gear, especially since it has a 10-year replacement guarantee"
"We replaced our old Genoa Cars with ones from Garhauer and they are GREAT! Excellent value and top quality. They are so free running and make our sailing much easier"
- John and Wendy Goldsbury, Opua SY "Fairsky" Chico 42
"When I was prepairing our yacht for an overseas cruise, I needed some high qualitity and relatively low cost gear. I contacted Lou because he had given really good value to the Navy Sail Training Craft where I was a Sailing Master. The Garhauer range of marine equipment is top quality at a very reasonable price compaired to competitors on the local market. The blocks and boom vang I purchased from him have been out in the weather on the yacht since around 2006 and still look and work virtually like new.
Thanks for making great gear available that I know I can rely on Lou." Lindsay Turvey
"Garhauer sail handling equipment is just perfect for the job. It performs well, looks great and it's all managed with great service by Lou and Ruth at Gauhauer New Zealand. I couldn't ask for a better result and I'd recommend them to anyone fitting out that special boat." John Court SY THEODORA
