I came to Boat Specialists to purchase a new trailer. Not only did they have a great selection of…read moretrailers, they had them IN STOCK which is unheard of in these times. Kyle, the sales person I was dealing with is fantastic. He has a great attitude, very knowledgeable and extremely responsive. Kyle got my trailer all taken care of on the business end and then turned me over to the service department to complete the work. Everyone in the service department is top notch. This has been the only boat repair service that I've ever left happy. All of the guys in the service department are very helpful and friendly, which I am not used to when dealing with boat people. They gave me a tour of their entire facility which is new, indoors and quite large. All of their repairs seem to happen in a large, clean and fully stocked Costco sized warehouse. They even have a fiberglass shop and paint booth. This place is fully stocked with Outboards, general boat gear and everything you could possibly need. It's extremely clean and well organized. Like anywhere else that's top notch, you might pay just a little more but it's definitely worth it. Worth it enough that I was inclined to write this review over a boat trailer. If you want a quality product with quality service to back it up, these guys are definitely who you want to go to. Also, they also included a complimentary torque wrench to keep the wheels properly torqued. They'll show you how to use it if you don't know how.

Although on boats my entire life, I was never responsible for one and I was intimidated. The owner, Captain Jair, met with me and developed an effective plan to diagnose and make the repairs, as well as to teach me how to Captain my own vessel. His lessons were, and continue to be, practical, educational and experiential. The repairs were made with common sense, which saved me SOO much time and money. Ventura Boating Services is amazing and hands-down I would recommend them to anyone who owns a boat or who even just enjoys boating and wants to learn more.
