Communication is key

Placing my order was simple
They even advised me the next day there could be delay did I want to cancel?
I opted to wait, 2 days later I was contacted and told item out for delivery. It arrived with a thank you note Hand written, too.

Really efficient service

Really efficient service, the only problem was the lack of photograph of the part meant it is not the right one.

Hi Judith, we spoke on the phone after you left this review, but I never heard back on whether you worked out which bit was the right bit for the boat.
Either way, we are currently working through the RS products because yes, there are a lot of missing photos. It's an ongoing process but hopefully you will see the difference next time you are on the website.
Thanks, Emma
