We have a Defever 60 built in 1980, PALADIN. Previous to last winter, our insurance company had told us to avoid having any repairs done in Georgia or South Carolina because most repair yards were either incompetent or crooks. We wintered PALADIN in Bohicket, SC last year. Bohicket is about seven miles off the ICW and thirty-five miles south of Charleston. If you're going to stop anywhere between Charleston and Beaufort, Bohicket is pretty much it. Bohicket Creek has a ferocious current, four knots or so. The marina is OK, docks need some attention, but it has two really good restaurants. Anyway in the course of wintering there from last November to this May, we had about $5K worth of work done by Jeffries Marine, run by Captain Lane Jeffries. Lane is wonderfully knowledgable and has all sorts of sub-contractors at his fingertips. Our work ranged from routine preventive maintenance to some complicated mechanical and electrical repairs. Lane got it all done on time and within estimate and it all worked fine when we left. If something is beyond his or his subs expertise, he will tell you. Not only that, he stays in touch, calls and e-mails frequently with status and up-dates. Leave a voice mail message and you get a call back that day. Although his offices are in Bohicket, he also services Charleston. Contact info is: Jeffries Marine 4466 Bohicket Rd John's Island, SC 29455 843-814-7719 We recommend him without reservation.
