After being out of boating for about ten years due to job-related travel, I decided to get back…read moreinto boat ownership on the east coast of Florida this summer. My wife and I became interested in a split console design by Robalo with a Four Stroke Yamaha. I started a national search online and found a used boat that interested us at Florida Family Marine in Deland, Florida. While I was in Orlando on business, I made a call to Florida Family Marine and was fortunate enough to connect with Josh Gourley, the Sales Manager. From beginning to end, the process of acquiring the boat was made easy and enjoyable by Josh and the entire team at Florida Family Marine. The staff on Old New York Avenue politely showed me every aspect of the used boat, and they disclosed both good and not so good items and made everything on the boat 100% functional before I picked her up. They detailed the cushions and cockpit as well as the hull and made the boat feel new to me. The test drive on the St. Johns River (which included some much-appreciated trailering schooling) with Josh was more like a fun family outing with your relaxed brother-in-law than a shake-down run! Josh and the Florida Family Marine team take the hassles out of purchasing a used boat. Boats are expensive vessels in 2025, and this family business takes the risk and discomfort out of the process with a "customer first" focus from beginning to end. They are patient and thorough and insist on making the process an enjoyable effort. This is a model that should be emulated for used boat sales across the nation. I would very highly recommend Josh, Austin, and the entire Florida Family Marine Team.

Best buying experience I have ever had! First, the boat I wanted to purchase was exactly in the…read morecondition it was represented in the sales ad. No tricks or gimmicks. This is important because I traveled 1.5 hours one way to see it. Second, Frank, Mark and Geoff were awesome. Really wonderful people to help me through the buying process. I also want to mention Austin responded to my initial email inquiry in a very timely manner and fully answered my questions. My message to the owner, you are lucky to have such great employees. I love the boat I purchased. It was the one I really wanted but couldn't quite afford until I found Florida's Family Marine. Best price in the whole state. I will definitely tell any of my friends and coworkers who may be thinking of purchasing a vessel to consider Florida's Family Marine first. Thank you again for a terrific buying experience! Sincerely, Duane F.

I usually do all of my own maintenance and repair work and am highly skeptical and critical of…read moredealership and marina repair facilities. We've all heard the horror stories of getting ripped off, or treated poorly at these places. I have now had two experiences with Pier 44 Marina and i am thoroughly pleased and recommend them highly. The first experience was something simple and they told me what to do, sent me away and said, "We can do it and charge you for it, but you can do it yourself and save a lot of money." The second experience was a potential major repair. Three other shops quoted much higher (2-3x) prices and wanted to do additional work that wasn't needed. Larry and Danny did only what was needed and took great care of me and my boat. I have no problem using their services again and recommending them to anyone.

On Wednesday I called about a 2025 GP Supercharger Jet Ski in black that was listed online for…read more$13,500. That same day I was told it had already been sold, but they had the same model available in blue and white (bait). It wasn't my preferred color, but it didn't look bad, and they offered to work on the price and include a trailer, so I agreed to come in on Saturday.On Thursday they called me repeatedly asking if I could come in that same day, even "jokingly"suggesting I cancel a personal appointment. On Friday, the manager, Ben, texted me asking for my information to "start the process." I made it clear I preferred to handle everything in person and review the numbers first before anything else.On Saturday Ben texted me asking me if I was coming. I said I was on my way, coming from Kissimmee. After driving 1 hour and 45 minutes, I arrived and Oliver told me the Jet Ski had been sold. Unbelievable. They tried to show me other options that I had no interest in, either because of the price or the color. I came for a specific unit that I was told would be available for $13,500.Then Oliver showed me a 2026 model for $17,500. When I asked for a breakdown, the total came out to $25,000 after all the crazy fees i didnt know exist. That was shocking. I asked to speak with the manager, Ben, to explain my frustration and why I was leaving upset, and he became hostile and defensive, even raising his voice in front of my kid. I asked to end the conversation right there because my 8-year-old son was with me, and I didn't want him to witness that kind of behavior, i did walk away. The lack of professionalism and respect from the manager speaks volumes. Then 3 minutes after i drive away he called me from this number +1 (386) 218-0508 to apologize for his behavior, stating he didn't know anything about what was going on, so he asked me to come back so he could make me a good deal. I said right now I don't feel good after what just happened ((he's a lucky man he still has his job and I'm not in jail)). I will not be returning to this place. If you no longer have the product a customer is asking about, stop that calling and pushing them to come in just to try to sell something else(BAIT). My time and gas are valuable, and I was there with my young son when I could have been anywhere else.Very disappointing experience. Here are the 4 numbers that were either texting me or calling me: (386) 218-0508 (386) 855-8604 (386) 564-8949 (386) 260-2052

We repowered last year to a 300b. The initial repower is where the horror story begins…read more.... So they first told me if the 300b was too heavy they would call and swap it with the a. That was never done and my boat consistently takes on water since the repower to the point I had to put a second bildge in to feel comfortable. They call doing the first visit and recommended all new fuel lines, racor, ball assembly to fit Suzuki recommendations. That was done for around 700$ extra that's fine... I get the boat back and nothing is hooked up to the motor to read hours or fuel consumptions. Back I go. Get that fixed then our first trip with new motor is to the keys from Orlando. The motor sat in the water for the first week of its life because it's too big and doesn't even trim out of the water the whole lower unit sits underwater to the first prop. Oh did I mention I got my boat back with the plug in and over 500 gallons of water inside? I could shop vac water from my cuddy floor drain in the center deck of a 25ft dusky....... My whole hole was full of water.... They only put 1 of 2 boat plugs in..... So now fast forward some more it's not running after they put a new fuel sender in I've run out of fuel readying 3/4 tank full. They didn't even look. They just told me bad fuel to go home and change the fuel filter myself..... .............. Now I've taking somewhere different after finding my fuel filter absolutely roasted and being told it's from well before my repower. Steve acts like he's got you covered but seriously it's just a group of felons working on your boats with neck tattoos they don't care about your wellbeing offshore. I was told the guy who worked on my boat was fired. I was told my 100 hr service would be free and I'd get a free detail for all the handprints in oil and grease that they left my boat black with. This was supposed to be an awesome step into getting a more reliable COMMERCIAL fishing boat. Here's how they treated me. Also here's a picture of my "new racor and water separator " ......
