He took the time to slowly and thoroughly diagnose the problem, then resolve it, and then educated us in a manner that was easy to understand and not at all condescending. His calm reassuring manner made us feel at ease and encouraged us to ask questions so that we could fully understand the issues so that we could prevent further problems and maintain our system properly.

12-2017 Irene We had a crack in the combined bimini support and wind generator mast, which needed welding by TIG in situ. When we were moored at Marina Taina last December I asked advise from the Taina's director Philippe Olite on a suitable welder and a place where the welding could be done. He recommended Father Son team Philippe and Damien Girault and the work dock of Marina Taina. Philippe Olite was kind enough to call the Girault brothers as I was afraid that I will have communication difficulties. We had to wait a few days because of very wet weather, and then took Irene to the work dock. Philippe Girault came as agreed with a van where he had the argon gas tank with a long enough hose to reach the work dock from the parking lot. Electricity was readily available from the work dock. The crack in the wind generator mast was quickly welded and Philippe repaired also our swimming ladders. He did not speak any English, but we had no communication problems. We were very satisfiedwith the quality of the work and price.

7-2018 Kyory Franz also reported excellent results from some SS welding and polishing he had from Girault. We called them and they came down to Taina marina to pick up the items to be welded. They were returned all welded & polished.

8-2018 Avatar Communication was no problem as Phillips had a translator on his phone. On time did a great job in two hours covering multiple cracks at joints in the arch for solar and davits. Would absolutely recommend them and use them again. Painless job at the work dock at the Marina. Marina charged $2000 francs for the dock which was fair App: Girault charged 7500F per hour

Inov inox πŸ“ž +68987788399 They have a very high end plasma cutter which can make chain plates or tangs. They recently made a set of titanium tangs for a customer who provided the plate material. They are in the Tipaerui Valley.

10-2020 SV Clair de Lune I used this service to manufacture new 316L stainless chain plates. They are a high end decorative metal fab shop and they use a water jet cutting table which can pattern. So they just chucked up my old chain plates, turned on the cutter and manufactured new plates with thicker stainless. The jet cutting was so good, I didn't even have to touch any of the eleven plates with a file. They just dropped right in. Everything happened as they said it would. I was very satisfied.

11-2019 SV Maluhia Here's the info on Inov Inox. Brought SS bar stock from the US. Went to Inov Inox in the Tipaerui Valley on Monday. Showed them the original chain plates which had a slight bend at the top and had two welded washers, one on each side to increase bearing surface for the rigging pin. They said it was no problem to make, would be done by the end of the week. On Thursday I called and left a message. Friday I called again and left another message. On the following Monday I went to the shop and was told that it would be ready maybe Wednesday. On Wednesday I called and was told maybe Thursday. On Thursday I went to the shop, and they said it would be done that afternoon and that they would deliver them to the fishing harbor near the airport as I was anchored near there. I said that would be great and to call me and I would meet them at the harbor. At 3:00 pm I called and left a message. No return call was ever made. The next morning I went to the shop. Yes, here were the chain plates. When I asked why they din't come or call they said they were busy and couldn't make it. Unfortunately the mounting holes did not line up with the originals. The material I brought was now wasted. They apologized and said that they would make new ones and have them ready that afternoon. They had the correct material and said they would deliver them. Not trusting this I said no, I would come back to pick them up. I came back in the afternoon. The plates were done. The mounting holes were aligned. Unfortunatelythe hole for the rigging pin was oblong and too big. They apologized and said it was difficult to find good 🌐 workers.I was finished with Inov Inox and left with the plates but they did not charge me.

11-2020 SV Moggy We had Metalinox manufacture a 1.5 metre long swim ladder from 42.4mm x 2mm wall, 316 stainless steel tube. We supplied drawings and had phone conversations with Dan about the manufacture and in particular the bends required. Overall we are happy with the result and we recommend Metalinox. Potential customers should have realistic expectations. Efficiency 5 out of 5 He got back to us in a very timely manner and answered all emails and phone calls promptly. Speed of Manufacture 5 out of 5 It was to be finished with a time frame for delivery to us in the Tuomotus and he met that schedule easily. Materials Used 5 out of 5 Exactly as requested Welds 3 out of 5 The welds are strong but are rough. Many are undercut so Dave cannot polish them out. We understand that other people have asked for them to be tidied up and he has done this willingly. Unfortunately we did not collect the ladder ourselves and did not have this opportunity. Bends 2 out of 5 These are a disappointing result. This could be due to communication error, but they are not in accordance with the drawings or our understanding of subsequent conversations. Overall finish 3 out of 5 We knew when we ordered that he would not polish the ladder. To polish to mirror finish, a weld needs to be proud rather than undercut. As a result we cannot achieve a result that is commensurate with other stainless finishes on the boat. Value for money 3 out of 5 It was a very expensive job for a strong, functional finish. If you want something pretty, this is not the guy. We did ask him to quote for hinge fittings and the quote was around US$90. We decided to importhinges from the USA for $14 We understand that he is probably the best welder of this type in Tahiti. He is also very easy to deal with.

11-2020 SV SV Mat-Lau III Metali’nox are commercial and industrial fabricators specialising in sheet metal and stainless steel. They do a lot of decorative stainless steel fabrications for buildings and houses, but very little work in the marine industry. We had Metali’nox fabricate a stainless steel frame for the installation of 4 x 340 watt solar panels across the stern of our Lagoon 500. The end result was very impressive and we are 100% satisfied with their work. I should stress that we supplied very detailed fabrication drawings, and Metali’nox followed them exactly as specified - they got it right the first time and we had no rework. They delivered the frame to the boat and even helped with the installation at no additional cost. Metali’nox will not polish stainless steel to a polished mirror finish, but their 320 grit polished finish is very pleasing to the eye. The Manager, Dan, speaks English and communicates by email with the assistance of Google Translate. He is a very likeable and helpful young man.

12-2022 SV Auntie I had Christian make a small panel and he did a beautiful job. The teak marched my teak, the craftsmanship was excellent. He was quick too! I definitely recommend Christian.

8-21 SV Airborne We have had Christian do a couple of jobs for us in the last four months. The first was to cut a new nav panel with all the holes for radios, and MFD pre-cut. He knew we were going to do a carbon wrap so he finished it so there were no surface imperfections that would show through the wrap. The workmanship was perfect and was on time. The second was a set of teak bow pulpit seats on our catamaran. Again, the workmanship was excellent. He is not cheap, but the products delivered are excellent and on time. I highly recommend him"
