O	Owen Williams on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ When I decided to upgrade and modernize the electrical system on our 1986 Albin trawler, I soon realized that I was in over my head. I watched many of the videos on the PYS website, which were helpful, but the best decision I made was to consult with PYS. Lyle drew up a plan for a new electrical system to fit our boat and cruising style. Every step of the way he was there via email or zoom to answer questions and give expert guidance as I upgraded our boat with a large house bank, battery to battery chargers for starter and bow thruster/windlass batteries, a solar array, high output alternator, inverter/charger, and a battery monitoring system. We are on our first cruise since the installation. Everything is working better than I expected and I'm confident that the system was done correctly and will be safe and reliable for many years to come. Thanks Lyle and Jeff. I couldn't have done this without your help.
M	Mel Petreman on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I decided it was time to upgrade my 17 year old Raymarine electronics on my Commander 30 Yacht. I chose to do a full renewal using all Garmin products. The company was a pleasure to deal with from the beginning with appropriate advice about what to buy. The installation was definitely a challenge, getting all the cables and wiring from main cabin to the bridge and radar unit. The amazing part was the wonderful job the technicians did to install the products. The quality of their workmanship was definitely five star. Such a treat to see that pride of doing the job correctly still exists. Highly recommend this company. Mel
T	Tom Beaty on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I hired PYS as consultants on a major electrical project I was undertaking over the winter to look over my designs and make sure I was using correct wire sizing and fusing. I did all the work myself, but I always had Lyle and Jeff there via email or phone to help me when I had questions. In the end, the project was a huge success and everything worked first time. I am also confident it is safe and robust. They were very good and I will use them again in the future.
C	Callum Beveridge on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Installation of solar panel - I used PYS to install a 100W solar panel on a sailboat. From start to finish the experience was excellent from product advice to the installation. The work was scheduled promptly. The technician arrived ahead of the agreed appointment. He performed the work in a efficient and professional manner. The installation turned out better than I expected. Great job. Based on my experience, I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them to others. Thank you to Jeff, Chris and Romeo.
R	Richard Wong on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ If you are a serious boater who look for AAA electrical related services, PYS is the vendor to go for. I recently bought a 2006 Cruisers Yachts and PYS has helped me to upgrade the navigation and other electrical and entertainment systems including a radar, chartplotter, transducer, battery monitor, VHF radio, Fusion sound system and the galvanic isolators. Their service has been immaculate vis-a-vis product recommendation, problem diagnosis, scheduling of jobs, work quality, and after installation follow-up. They might not be the cheapest vendor in town but it is definitely worth it. I also learnt so much watching Jeff's videos on You Tube about marine electrical systems. They know their stuff and are able to deliver. No wonder they are so busy!
J	John Olson on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Terrible. Take a look at the photos & video. They used silicone to install the battery monitor into the dash, but you can see it's not level. The video shows loose battery connections on my new battery and it rocks! Jeff talks about using black and white only for AC wire on a boat, but they used black and red for the hot connections on the AC electrical panel and didn't bother to heat shrink the heat shrink terminals. They cut an undersized hole in my battery box for the cable to exit and didn't bother to remove the burr. I refused to pay for months, I phoned and emailed. Jeff never offered to correct the problems, he only offered a $1000 discount. Pathetic. He puts on a good show with his articles and Youtube videos, but their actual workmanship is poor. Am ashamed to say I ended up paying over $3000 (was over $4000 before the discount) for a new battery, monitor, and a couple little wiring modifications.
R	Russ Low on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We recently used Pacific Yacht Systems to design a complete1000 watt solar system for our Selene 53. We also purchased all of the components from PYS My wife and I installed the system ourselves and this would not have been possible without the advice along the way that Jeff and Lyle provided. We are very happy with how the installation turned out and how it is performing. We have a large house bank and this system has drastically cut back our generator use. We highly recommend yacht systems!
J	Jonathan Lazar on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I have been using the excellent services of PYS for almost ten years on a myriad of electronic and electric work on two Catalina sailboats that I have owned over the years. The work included the installation of solar panels, chart plotter, radar, alternator, batteries, a battery monitor, and the revamping of the electrical system on both boats. If you're looking for a cheap fix, don't contact Jeff or any other of the professionals at PYS. What I have received each and every time from PYS is great advice, timely work (very important in our short boating season), professional installation, and great after sales service. You may be able to save money with some of the other service providers out there, but that won't help you when you are out of power in the middle of the Straight or when you are moving closer to the rocks and your chart plotter goes dark. What you get with PYS is great value for your money! I highly recommend them.
