MARINECERT - Key Persons


Gavin Dakers

Job Titles:
  • DIRECTOR
After completing his apprenticeship in the Royal NZ Navy, Gavin spent the first part of his career working as a marine electrical engineer on container ships, commercial boats and luxury vessels. In 1990, after observing a shortage in specialised electricians that were capable of delivering the skill and expertise that the industry demands, he started Marine Electrics NZ. Together with his team, Gavin spent over 27 years delivering exceptional specialised service, knowledge and skills to his clients, and training apprentices to further serve the profession. In 2017, Gavin brought the chapter of Marine Electrics NZ to a close, to focus on establishing a business for the more specific needs of the industry. Today, Marine Cert draws on these years of hands-on experience to provide an independent voice of marine expertise.
