For example, I was going out for several days with my bro on his catamaran and I asked if he needed anything for the boat. He needed line tape. I called West Marine in Stratford and they didn't have any. I called Milford Boat Works and they had it which made me happy as I am from Milford and didn't have to go out of my way. Since it was raining, I decided to get some rain gear for my trip. Milford Boat Works had just what I needed. And, you know how the saying goes, if you have rain gear, the sun will be shinning! So true. Staff at MBW are very friendly and helpful. I also saw some other items that I needed at home. Tubing for my water fountain is sold by the foot so I was able to pick that up as well.

They serviced our boat for 3+ years and the work was performed skillfully, on time and with great communication. My service experience with our 27' Grady-White was positive whether it was performed in the shop or on our mooring. While now out of the western Long Island Sound area, I wouldn't hesitate to use them again for sales or service if I were to return to the area and have recommended Team Catalano to my friends without reservation.

Great service, great guys, great boat, great value. Never a lick of trouble for 20 years. Even though I am now three hours away I still bring my boat to Catalano's every year for service. I just know it will be done right. After 20 years of total enjoyment on my 21' Grady I just upgraded to a 23 and didn't think for a second about going anywhere else. My hope is that I live another 20 years so I can buy a new Grady from the next generation of Catalanos.

Jonas, I just saw…read moreyour reply to my review. It only proves that you will not accept any responsibility for your mistakes/actions. As you stated, I was a customer for 10 years. In that time, I purchased a used motor (lasted less than 1 year), then a rebuilt (lasted less than 1 year) then a new motor (still in use). I also had you do thousands of dollars of other repairs and maintenance. I did hit a rock and brought the boat to you. The damage was cosmetic. I used the boat for 4 months after hitting it with no problems. As discussed, I brought it to you off-season so you could fix the cosmetic damage (weld on a new skeg). The first time I used it after your "repair", the lower unit failed (quite a coincidence) - most likely as the result of having no gear lube in it. Only you would blame an incident that happened a year earlier rather than the work that was done (by you) on the failed component (lower unit) only days earlier. Regarding your reputation...don't kid yourself. The word is out. Tony

Excellent service! I had a problem with my boat at time of launch, I contacted BPM and asked them…read moreto to take a look. They found the problem and fixed it quickly and at the very reasonable price quoted. While working on my boat they found another minor problem. They contact me, advised me of the issue, quoted me a price and quickly fixed that too. Cost was reasonable, repairs were done quickly and expertly completed! I would highly recommend BPM in Shelton CT. Thank you Randy!

Finding a truly reliable boat mechanic these days feels almost impossible -- but this guy is the…read morereal deal. After years of struggling to find someone competent, honest, and detail‑oriented, I finally found a rock‑star mechanic who treats my 31' Tiara Open like it's his own. He's clean, knowledgeable, and incredibly thorough. Every job he's touched has been done right -- not patched, not guessed, not halfway -- done correctly. He's worked on everything from gas lines, water pumps, timing the engines, fixing wipers, oil changes, plugs, winterizing, commissioning.....you name it, he's fixed it, and he's fixed it perfectly. What really sets him apart is his professionalism. He shows up prepared, he explains what he's doing, and he doesn't leave a mess behind. The level of competence is rare, and the peace of mind is priceless. After years of searching, I can finally say it: I will never use anyone else. If you want your boat in the hands of someone who actually knows what they're doing, this is the mechanic you want. I've been using Matt Rysz for about 4 years now. If you want things fixed, he is your guy! Oh and you can tell a lot about how good a mechanic is if you see their boat. His.... You could eat off the floors!
