Welcome to DRIVE Marine Services

DRIVE Marine Services is the BoatCraft Pacific Distributor in the greater Sydney area and Country NSW.   BoatCraft Pacific is an Australian owned company which manufactures all of its products locally using the safest and best products available.  Where another Australian Company has a leading product in the marketplace such as TREDGRIP Non Slip coating, Boatcraft Pacific distributes it instead.   At DRIVE Marine Services we have adopted this philosophy and fully support using the safest and most environmentally responsible products and techinques available to the customer and wherever possible will source our products from Australian owned companies.  An overview of products is listed below.

At DRIVE Marine Services we place emphasis on customer service and being a “One Stop Shop for the Amateur & Professional Boatbuilder” who wants to use quality products.   
Our aim is to provide you with good quality products at a reasonable price.  Add to this, product support on how to use the products including tips & techniques for your project.  We also have accounts with the major Importers / wholesalers and are happy to source all of your requirements and we are happy to say we can compete on price with the major Hardware Stores.  If not stocked, it is because we have not sourced the item, do not recommend it or it is cheaper elsewhere and we will tell you and suggest you go to them.

As BoatCraft Pacific have traditionally marketed their products to the wooden boat builder most of their sales have been direct or through distributors, as a result they are not well known in the general marine or woodworking industries.  If you have a favorite chandlery / Hardware store; ask for our products & if not known get them to contact us, as we are keen to have local stores stock your requirements.
DRIVE Marine Services is actively promoting the product range at Sydney International Boat Show other regional Boat Shows and Woodworking exhibitions.
