    I dealt directly with the owner, Dave McShane, who is a licensed Sea Fox dealer. He reached out to…read moreme on having a trolling motor installed on my 2023 Sea Fox 2280 Commander as he was referred by M&M Marine where I recently purchased the boat. He told me he would look into the types of trolling motors that are most commonly installed and would get back to me. He never did this, told me to bring the boat to his location, and that he would install a trolling motor. No estimates from him. He placed the onus on me to tell him the type of trolling motor. After several emails, where I included Sea Fox in the email threads, and also did research on my own and then recommended a product to him, he then refused my business and told me to go elsewhere. I have had boats well over 50 years and this is the worst experience I have ever encountered with a marine business that services boats.

    Have to agree with reviews of Matt K and Will S. Not a good experience. I went there in 2022 to…read morelook at Sea Fox boats, which I first saw earlier in the year in Charleston, SC. Well built. Left because I found Dave McShane rude and condescending when answering my questions. I eventually found a 2019 Sea Fox in CT in excellent shape in spring of 2023 and bought it. But you need to get parts from your State's authorized dealer. Sea Fox will not take orders directly. I got a part last year from a young man on their staff, very nice, no issues. This year I called for a replacement T-top anchor light. Rosa McShane took my order and said she would have it shipped directly to my house, since I'm 70 miles roundtrip from their site, and it was an easy fix. She took my CC info and sent me an email saying it would be 2 weeks. 4 weeks later, no part, so I called and Rosa was 'sorry to hear that and she would talk to Sea Fox in Charleston when they (Sea Fox staff) return on Monday July 7th.' Not being able to go out at night fishing for the past month, and wanting to go out on the boat for the fireworks on July 4th, (hundreds of boats out, so an anchor light is a must, especially with the harbormaster!) I had my marina put in an OEM light on top of the T-top. Very nice, more solid than the original. I called Rosa and told her that, and that I wished to be refunded. She said I would need to get the part first and send it to them before I got a refund, but she would also check and see if Sea Fox sent it to them instead of me. Well I obviously had no part to send back (at my expense!), and would I ever get it? Turns out Sea Fox did send it to McShane Yacht Sales, so they had it, but never called me. I had to call after a month, then they looked around and found it. She said she could overnite it to me (my expense, and I already paid shipping), but I already had the new one. So it was In her possession anyway...but she told me Sea Fox charges them a $20 restocking fee and I'd have to pay that. I asked her why I would need to pay a $20 restock fee for a part I never received, and why wouldn't they be calling Sea Fox and asked for a waiver on it since Sea Fox screwed up, not me, nor McShane YS for that matter. She said she'd have Dave call me. Long story short, Dave McShane said I was being unreasonable fighting over $20. Wasn't he doing the same? Wouldn't he fight for a customer and tell Sea Fox they messed up and the customer, nor he the dealer should pay them $20 for their mistake? I was hoping so. Nope, he told me "You can call Trump!" (???). Today I got a refund check for the part LESS the $20. I'm tempted to go to Small Claims court, where McShane or Sea Fox Boats would also cover the $40.00 filing fee, and you can also get triple damages for an issue not resolved in 30 days. Dave M. told me 'fine, I have a piece of paper here that shows you ordered a Special order part from us'. So what? A light is a 'special order'? Doesn't matter what kind of order it is. I didn't get what i was promised in 2 weeks. He also said 'you can come down here and get your part', and that's when he hung up on me. But I'll just post this review here, and a few other sites as well. Lesson learned. Tom H

In my humble opinion, they need a new GM, she's very difficult to communicate with, only replies by email and is always right, even though presented with information contrary to her opinions.

We return year over year to have Wendy and her team store our boat for the winter and perform all our maintenance. Each season, they give the boat a thorough look over and provide us an outstanding report of the condition and anything to be on the lookout for. We have them sand and bottom paint regularly and each season they have our boat looking pristine, on our trailer and ready to go. Anytime we have a question, Wendy and her team are prompt in getting back to us, no matter how rookie of a question it is, many times the same day. This current year we were debating about switching bottom paint. Wendy was super helpful and responsive to my emails about different types of paint and costs associated with making a switch as well as pros/cons of each. Full disclosure, we did purchase our Cap Cod DaySailer from them a few years back, and I can say they made the whole boat purchase, building and customization process amazing. We routinely received photos of our boat as it was built and even got to visit a few times to see her at different stages of completion, pick out our own tiller, and even spoke to the folks in the shop about a custom wood inlay on our tiller, which had never been done before, but these wonderful craftsmen/women made it happen! Additionally, Wendy helped set us up with an array of spare parts to have on hand for our DaySailer. They were fully stocked and we purchased a spare parts bag from them that had all the crucial things that we'd be likely to break and could easily replace. In addition, they have all the parts for the boat, since they are the class builder, and are routinely featured in the DaySailer magazine. Check them out if you're in the market or need help, what a huge help they have been! Keep in mind, we have a new DaySailer, which differs from models of years past, for those needing help with older boats. Either way, if you need help, I know these folks will do their best to help you out themselves as best they can or, at the very least, point you to the right folks in the boating industry that can assist you with your specific model of boat, DaySailer or not. Thanks to all the folks at CCSB for helping us out and taking care of anything we need!

    Great crew at Brewer Street Boatworks, they have been super helpful with everything from a boat…read morepurchase to helping me become a better boater. It all started when I was searching for a center console and Skip, the owner, was brokering a boat for a client of his. He was up front and honest with me about the pros and cons of the boat, and made sure that I realized it was a true fishing boat. Skip and his team went out of their way to make my buying experience easy. From the survey and sea trial to the delivery he worked with me and my wife to ensure we were informed and answered any and all questions that you would expect from first time boat owners like us. The delivery was a chance for me to help pilot the boat from its home port to my mooring. Skip had his son go along with me to coach and guide me on the voyage. It was a great trip and I really appreciated the help. We will definitely look to Skip and his team to help us once we graduate from our current boat to a bigger one.

He replied, "OHH WOWWWW you can afford more than that you are driving a Maserati"!!!! I was like WTF! This was totally unprofessional and rude. He acted like a total jerk and kept bring up my car! Anyway, we left that place and headed for a bite in Newport. We asked a few people in the restaurant about Skip from Brewer Street. They all said RUNNNNNNNNNNNN he is not friendly and truly a condescending man! I will never go back to that place again! Just ask the locals about SKIP!
