Dave Giddings is the principle behind DRIVE Marine Services and has a wealth of knowledge in the field of Marine Engineering and mucking around with boats.  He has a great love of sailing and enjoys being on the water, whether it be racing, cruising, maintaining or adding to his pride and joy, "SYLVARA" (a CLANSMAN).  Dave was in the Royal Australian Navy for 22 years starting out as an apprentice Fitter & Machinist which progressed through to Marine Engineer.  This led to gaining a passion for the sea and during shore service learned to sail.

His other past time is Scouting and he is a Venturer scout Leader.  When some canoes had to be repaired several years ago, he looked around for a safe and user friendly product to repair and paint them.  He was so impressed with the result and the ease of application of BOTE-COTE Marine Epoxy System and AQUACOTE that he continued to use the BoatCraft Product range and when the opportunity arose to Distribute the Bote-Cote Marine Epoxy System and associated Boatbuilding  products in the Sydney area he jumped at it.

Now it is a matter of passing the word and showing new comers and Old Salts alike the merits of using the Bote-Cote Marine Epoxy System and the associated user and environmentally friendly products to carry out their boat building, repairs, restoration and maintenance tasks.
