Elliot Bay Marina

I have been nothing but thrilled with the level of service and accountability from Double J. Janel and Jorge show real care and concern the health of my Maritimo 52 and they give me peace of mind that everything is ship shape in those regions I rarely see. If you need a partner to go where you don’t want to go yourself, you’ve come to the right place and if you have any further questions, feel free to write me.

We have been using Double J for our diving needs since 2018, we are very excited to have Janel and Jorge as service partners for our boat. They are very thorough and courteous in their work, also very timely with pictures and invoicing after the dive. We trust them with the care of our boat and they are very happy people who seem to genuinely love what they do!

Double J Diving has been our preferred diving company for our 37' sailboat for a number of years. Their service is top notch. We especially appreciate their remarkable communication - emails advising us of when they will service our boat,  reports with photos of our boat's hull, documentation of problem areas, etc. - and responsiveness when we email them with questions or requests. We really appreciate the high quality of service provided by Janel and Jorge. 

Best of luck,

Elena

The Relaxin crew has greatly appreciated the services of DoubleJ diving.  Whether setting-up a sensible inspection plan to replacing the props in very difficult conditions, Janel and Jorge have always happily done the job in the right way.  The Relaxin' is moored at the Port of Everett Marina." 
 

The boat has spent a lot of time out in the 'big' (ie salty) water this summer.  Do we have an inspection coming up?

Thanks - and best wishes,

John

Double J Diving has been cleaning and maintaining the zincs, propellor, saildrive as well as the hull and keel of our 38' sailboat for the past several years. 

I have found Jorge and Janelle to be extremely diligent and pro-active, e.g. emailing pre and post dive reports including photos. Their work has always been done to my complete satisfaction.

I do not hesitate to give Double J Diving a 5 star rating!

We've been using Double J Diving for the past four years on s/v Rover at the Shilshole Marina. Rover is a Valiant 42 and we've had Double J take care of inspecting and cleaning the running gear and zincs while we've been at the dock. They generated a maintenance schedule based on how long the zincs lasted, contact us when we're due for an inspection and follow up with photos and a report of the bottom condition. They've been prompt and thorough in their service and have been flexible to integrate their plan with our cruising schedule and regular haul outs. Jorge and Janel have been a pleasure to work with. We've recommended them to a couple of other boat owners and have only heard good things from them.

Thanks,

Double J DIving has been servicing our sloop "Varekai", a Beneteau 423, at Shilshole Marina for the last three years.  The wife and husband dive team have always been courteous and professional, yet also personable.  Jorge and Janel have constantly provided exceptional service, more than what we expected of a diving service, willing to go the extra step to ensure our satisfaction.  I would highly recommend them to anybody, and have done so in the past to fellow marina mates.

Jorge and Janel have taken very good care of me and my boat for a few years now and everyone I know who uses their service is as happy to have them as I.  They are very friendly and accommodating but thorough and very professional.  They always let me know when it is nearing the time for the zincs and bottom inspections and they follow up with verbal and written detailed explanations of their work and findings.  And they are very affordable...I've even suggested that they should charge a little more because I feel I receive what I have paid for and a lot more.  It is more than a pleasure to recommend them.

Thank you and kindest regards,

I've lived aboard and cruised for 15 years and have developed a short list of the most reliable in marine service. The list starts with Double J Diving. I never worry with my running gear as that's their job and they're always spot on with when my zincs truly need replacing. You wouldn't believe how much time and money they've saved me. Janel and Jorge care for my boat as your family physician cares for you. Thorough, detailed and thoughtful. There is no other diving service like them on any coast.

This is one of the best service experiences I have had, ever.  If you keep this up, you are going to end up running Obamacare or something similarly in need of good, smart people.

Thank you for your great work.

You simply will not find a more conscientious diving firm in the Seattle region. Double J Diving has been diving regularly on our 40' Tiara in Elliott Bay Marina since early 2010 and has provided us with fantastic service. Janel always emails us the week before we are on the schedule and then calls me after every dive to inform me of Jorge's findings. When they felt that the time between diving intervals could be extended, she promptly informed us. When a nice deck brush found its way to the bottom of our slip, Jorge gladly retrieved it, rinsed it with fresh water, and left it secure on the back deck. The customer service received from Double J Diving is unmatched. I would recommend them to anyone with underwater maintenance needs.

We have worked with Janelle and Jorge for over a decade, and they do a fantastic job! They are always very thorough with their services, and have a routine schedule for their clients. Very friendly and provide extremely detailed and specific reports after each maintenance and service dive. They also currently take before and after photos underwater for a better understanding of any potential problem areas – very professional. Double J is prompt, courteous, and one of our most reliable contractors, and absolutely wonderful to work with.

"Double J have cared for our sailboat for five years.  They are reliable, precise, and honest. We've used their race wipe package and long term maintenance plan and couldn't be happier with the service. Janel and Jorge are the nicest people on the dock; we love it when we get to see them in person! And you can always contact them quickly via email or phone if your racing or cruising plans are changed and they will accommodate your schedule."

“I’ve been using Double J Diving to maintain the zincs and keep the underwater running gear in order on our 490 Meridian at Elliott Bay Marina since 2011.  I’m completely satisfied with their service and attention to my boat.  Most recently, Jorge has added underwater photography to more clearly communicate the as-found and as-left conditions.  This is very helpful information.  I would recommend Double J Diving to anyone with underwater maintenance needs or concerns.”

I meant to send you a brief update on your dive for me in June: Wandering Star, white 37' Hunter with black sailcovers, slip E-7 in Edmonds.  Jorge was completely right in both his observation as to the damage and his recommendation not to run her. I had the boat towed to Seaview in Shilshole, with the shaft locked so it couldn't turn. She did in fact have both a bent strut and a bent shaft. Hate to think of what additional damage I might have caused if I had tried to run her to Shilshole, or even to the travelift at Edmonds.
 
I would and will recommend you folks without reservation to anyone needing a diver.
Thanks.

I have an Ocean Alexander 42 which I have kept at Elliott Bay Marina since summer 2007.  I asked around for a diving service to periodically replace zincs and generally tend to care of the bottom.  I learned that Double J had an excellent reputation and I contracted with them to handle my needs.  They have been with me ever since.
They have always acted with the utmost honesty and professionalism.  They have me on a specific schedule based on the wear they found and my usage patterns.  They have also kept up with technology, and now furnish underwater photographs of the hull and running gear before and after each service.
I am sure I will continue to use Double J Diving as long as I keep a boat in the water in the Seattle area.
