Need to add that those are on my "great" list
Alan Marine in Salem is really the only one on my "not so great" list. I haven't really had that much bad luck in the marine market. |

A good small shop is TOMS Boat Shop in Wilbur, WA 509-647-5757. This one is by Lake Roosevelt. They also have a shop in Seattle some one else recommended. I haul my TOGO 120 mikes to get to this shop.
I will not go to Hope Marine in Hope, ID on Lake Pend Oreille. The owner spent a half hour telling me how bad C-Dories are. I feel that the work they did was incomplete.

This thread is doing exactly what I had hoped it would. Thanks everybody for posting. After a week or two I'll post a compilation to that date so we can see the "score", what supplier/service gets good or bad mentions most often. Many are already doing this but it should be helpful to us all if you say where the service/supplier is located. _________________ Patti and Barry

Gord Smith Marine Inc. (Dundas, Ont.) - if you need a wood boat rebuilt, repaired or revarnished - he's your man.
Bridge Yachts (Port Dover, Ont.) - excellent people, a well stocked store, and a first rate, honest service department.
Volvo - their warranty is top notch.
Rosborough Boats - I still give them 2 thumbs up - even if they have moved their operation south of the border!
Surrette Batteries - excellent warranty(7 years)

It is always interesting to me when the same company shows up on one person's "great service" list and on another's "poor service" list.
I have companies that I deal with in my boating life that I think are great and that go above and beyond what I expect. And I will hear from other boater's who have had a bad experience with the same company and will never go back.
BTW- Brown's Point was a great company, and we often used their website to look up parts because it was easier to navigate than the factory Suzuki site. We wish them the best and hope they can rebuild. _________________ Matt Gurnsey
