The service award, given following nominations from customers recommendations, has highlighted the effort and care we always try to give at all stages of build and boat ownership.

We would like to thank most sincerely all our valued customers who took the time to write to the magazine, and for all the kind praise about their experiences in dealing with Haines Marine.

This is a UK wide marine industry award for good service, so we were amazed and delighted to receive it. The company will continue to work hard in giving the best possible service at all times to justify your lovely comments and your support for our products.

The second award was for the new Haines 34 Sedan, following a successful boat test report in the December issue of MBM.

The magazine wrote "Another year, another award for this unassuming Norfolk yard" and "Haines seems unable to put a foot wrong, creating cruisers of real quality and warmth that owners really cherish."

Haines would again like to thank all its valued customers and all its dedicated staff, may 2008 be a successful year for everyone.

Haines will be marking the New Year with the launch of a new model to its range. The Haines 350 will be available for demonstrations and viewings in January. The aft cabin cruiser provides a spacious living area, an open plan galley and two luxury en-suite double cabins. The semi-displacement hull offers enjoyment of cruising inland waterways of Europe combined with a serious sea cruising capacity.

The launch of the new Haines 350 at the Birmingham NEC proved a huge success. The craft being extremely well received by an impressive turnout over the 6 day show.

With a variety of craft occupying hall one, the 350 seemed at times to take center stage. With queues frequently forming, and customers old and new eager for their first look at what we anticipate to be a hugely successful model for us. 

Haines craft received further recognition with an impressive review of the 34 Sedan in the recent edition of MBM. Complemented on its performance at sea and its design and build qualities, the 34 Sedan has now been nominated for the MBM Motor Boat of the Year Awards!
