We engaged Max & Romain to complete a series of rigging upgrades to our Moody DS54 including upgrading to auto Mainsail control and mast track mounted downwind pole. Their experience and professionalism is outstanding and they not only completed the design and implementation, but also advised on other key upgrades to the Raymarine, SEA.AI and Timezero systems. They provided excellent communication throughout, and worked closely with the manufacturers to ensure optimal results.
I highly recommend Max & Romain’s services.

SIX stars -- Max and Romain originally did my rigging inspection during purchase of my Island Packet 370. And follow up request assisting me with advice and professional expertise on two part epoxy for attaching electronics panel to fiberglass and making sense of the Victron configuration, adjusting settings and making sure everything was good to go. Both of these guys are very professional and friendly -- a pleasure to talk with about any situation that needs attention. I will trust no other when I make some rigging...

I recently came into charlston on my sailboat due to rough conditions on the Atlantic. When getting ready to leave Anchorage my windlass failed. Gearbox had seized and overworked the electric motor which smelt burnt .Romain helped me decide on best suited new windlass, advice on my currant wiring to windlass and answered multiple questions (about 30) over a 2 week span . They're prices for windlass and new chain where comparable to the big drop ship companies but with a real person helping you.
My new genoa sail...

Prompt. Professional. And a pleasure to work with. That was my experience with Max. When a major manufacturer and two big resellers of their products all behaved as if they didn't want to sell me an electric winch, Max came through. He was quick to respond, listened to my needs, offered his voice of experience and made the sale. Can't recommend Maxmar enough. Great experience.

Maxmar were very prompt in the reply and arrived when they said they would arrive, Worked on issues with my 50 foot sailboat. I was extremely pleased with the professionalism and the attitude of both Max and Romain. Replaced a new stay on a Roller furler and took care of Raymarine Electrical issues with care and competence. Maxmar LLC would be my first choice to call if I have any more issues with my Boat.

Excellent service, I had a 5" crack along my mast: I had good advises on what needed to be done considering the location of the crack: the repair (welding) was perfect, completed in the following days of the call and it is strong and hardly visible. I recommend Maxmar

Established a quick repair and reliable communication for repairing a Hobie 16 Comp Tip, and getting us back out on the water. They have a deep understanding of boating and the ability to help you with a wide variety of issues.

Max is a real shipwright with a vast array of talents covering every aspect one might need to repair of improve your boat. He helped me rebuild a 44' Kelly Peterson sailboat with everything from new rigging, SSB solar panels, wind generator, auto pilot and rebuilding the jib tracks. You will not be disappointed putting your trust in Max to take on whatever challenge your boat may have

I very highly recommend Max Letissier as a result of the work that he did on my Robertson Caine Leopard catamaran in 2018.
I found Max to be a superb and knowledgeable craftsman who is exceedingly particular about the quality of his work, which is very important to me. Along with being very conscientious about his work, Max has a very high work ethic.
Max’s sailing experience and life spent around boats was an unexpected benefit as I learned many great tips both about seamanship...
