Dave made this so easy, I give him a few ideas and he cultivated and crafted it to life. I couldn't believe how meticulous and beautiful the day was. My sister was truly brought to tears. There was a customized champagne flute, a customized birthday welcome sign on an easel, fresh flowers, balloons, the colors and decor were honestly all on point!!! We were even able to come up with a chef inspired menu to hit the notes of our food favorites and Dave even has menu customized and laminated for the event. The crewmembers were some of the nicest top-notch service personnel we've ever met. We were even able to come up with a drink menu and they were bartenders on deck too! Truly was white glove service all around. If you put your contract in with Marquis Charters, you will not be disappointed as every dollar will be worth it!!!

Fast, friendly service. Great products and variety. My first time to this location today and it was…read morea pleasant overall experience. My brother loves this spot. Always coming here for sailboat stuff - therefore I knew this place existed and when I had a project that required high quality rope that was resistant to sun I knew the best possible place to go. People working here were quick to jump into action to help me. Wasn't exactly sure what type of rope to pick since there was endless variety and had some help with that. Got the rope cut to length and even had the ends fixed so that they don't fray. They've got a neat little deal for doing that including a tiny vent fan. Very impressive. Project went well and I am very confident I got the best material possible to get the job done right.

My friends and I decided to come here and rent two rowboats for a nice day out on the lake. There is a deposit for each boat and we paid the non resident fee to boat. We grabbed our life jackets and we were off! We enjoyed sights all over the lake... the bird sanctuary was super cool and you can see the birds take off. We broke our paddle on the rowboat by rowing a little too hard, but the staff was so nice and gave us a new paddle. We all had so much fun learning to row and being in the water. I would definitely recommend this place!

There have been boats stolen, boats broken into, homeless encampments under the shipway launch ramp. Something needs to change other than the rent which keeps going up.

Nice shop with a selection of most boat and trailer parts. Needed brake line kit as well, but what they had did not fit my need. No biggy, I well ordered that from amazon 1 day delivery.

A few years ago they sold us a boat that was not at all appropriate for the SF Bay waters and they overcharged us. (I later found a price sticker on the boat with a lower price). We were neophytes at the time. Live and learn! One reason that I go back is that they are the only Boston Whaler (a great boat) dealer in town.
