5 stars, hands down!! I am a Captain and Fishing guide and I’m telling you, this is the best place to get any boat service. They did my 100 hour service on my Suzuki 175hp outboard and fixed my trailer lights. Dan and his staff are knowledgeable and professional. They explained everything to me and offered tips on maintenance, stuff I wouldn’t have even thought of. Their prices are more than fare. If you love your boat as much as I love and depend on mine, bring it to them!
What Ever you do do not I repeat do not take your boat to Dan at Ripp off marine. You will be held hostage all Dan cares about his billing hourly and the money. He thinks he’s a master mechanic NOT. I brought him my boat and engine separately and specifically told him that the engine is 95% ready to be dropped in. It needs to be looked over before To make sure everything is in working order and in place, I specifically told him do not drop the engine in before you start outside of the boat. He did none of these. He only wanted to bill you hourly for Any wire fixing or adjustments on the engine and then he proceeded to drop The engine in and it doesn’t start and want to be paid the full amount and on top of that he has a temper with his customers I was going to call the police when I picked my boat up. On top of that, his shop is an absolute complete mess you would think toddlers were working there. Do not bring your boat there.
From Rob the owner to Rick the mechanic this place is legit. They don’t upsell anything that you don’t need and price out parts as cheap as they can you. I was a US Navy boat driver and have spent a lifetime on the water with many boats. These guys know what they are doing and the quality of work is second to no one. Thanks guys for getting my 2003 crownline 230ex with a 5.0 mercruiser up and going.
In Feb 2023 I had two mechanical fuel pumps replaced along with other work. Seemed to be lots of incremental charges, shop fees supplies, storage fees, pick up and delivery fees discussed in arrears. Sad part is Dan is a real nice guy that you can engage with easily. Straw that broke the back is I sold the boat 1 month after his repairs. I would not go above 3,500 rpm. I gave the buyer a cash concession. He hired a mechanic who identified the problem the two mechanical pumps I had paid Raider marine to replace a month prior. I called Dan. He needed pictures and the old pumps we discarded by the new owner. Because of extending a discount to the buyer and paying for the original service. This hurt. With all repairs with Raider marine, get a written quote upfront and after the repair, inspect what you expect
Great service. Fair price. Honest guys. Had my boat back running in one week. If you have any boat needs these guys are the place to go. Thanks again Dan
I have owned boats for over 45 years, starting at 15 years old. I love to do as much as I can to fix and maintain my own boats, but are problems that I do not have the expertise or tools to fix. Because I know enough to be dangerous, I also feel qualified to recognize a great mechanic that can be trusted and loves what he does.
Daniel is always helpful, even if I come in for advice and a few cheap parts. Of course some problems are out of my league but I know I can trust Daniel to fix it right and treat me honestly. I am leery about recommending auto or boat mechanics unless I trust their skills and their honesty. I heartily recommend Daniel at Raider Marine
I’ve got an older boat that was in need of some serious TLC. Dan and Gary at Raider Marine went out of their way to help me get the boat running better than it has in the last 20 years. With a combination of their knowledge and patience (I ask a lot of questions) it made the made the process easy. Their people are great and their rates are right! I would highly recommend working with Raider Marine.
Very friendly, and professional. I needed hydraulic steering and a Bimini top installed on my boat. Dan was very easy to work with. When installed I will post the finished product.
Took amazing care of our Grady White while the ETEC was being serviced and the Grady got upgrades and updates. Great vid of water test... Had any supplies needed on hand in shop 🤘 …
Really need tothank Dan over at raider's marine for his honesty And hard work getting me backup and running with my Mercury outboard saved me money and and got me backup to make money as a guide definitely great company to work with had my boat at 2 other mechanics Horrible experiences Dan definitely took care of me and had my boat me when he said he would Thanks captain Craig larr skinny water charters
I called in to get their pricing on a used boat inspection, and after advising me away from the boat I described, Dan stayed on the phone to answer general questions and give advice even after we established that I wouldn't be using his services for the inspection.
Place is awesome Dan the owner is allways on point
And that now offer diesel repair finally fare pricing and knowledgeable staff
Great customer service! They know what they are talking about and they are always wanting to give advice and make sure you make the right decisions! If you need someone you can trust, go to Raider Marine!
Returned a U haul here. Very dirty, congested parking. Ignored and smoking worker. Dont rent or return a Uhaul at this place. No experience how they are as boat repair.
dan and his team was great provided me with the best customer service no complaints on my end would Definitely recommend
Slower than molasses on a COLD winter day...
"one week" is turning into 3 months.
TERRIBLE at keeping you informed
They had my boat running in 2 days and for a fair price. I would and will use them again.
Good guys. Worked on my inboard/putboard glastron. Right away knew what was wrong. They're great.
I came to pick up a confirmed reservation for a uhaul trailer and the office was closed prior to end of business and they did not answer the phone. Waste of time!
Dan is the man! Always know what's going on with my boat, great price, and quality work
The absolute worst service ever. Boat was returned in worse condition, missing parts, and in ONLY 6 months.
Very nice people and they do repairs there. Talk to dan
I can't praise this place enough. I am 100% satisfied.
Great business. Ethical and Reliable.
The owner very nice person and respectful
Good service and very helpfull.
Thank your for your business!
