The manager of the Petoskey store, Tom, was openly rude and unprofessional.

We took our $5K purchase to Walstrom, who were super friendly and helpful.

I would like to give a big shout out to David and Jim at Walstrom Marine in Cheboygan, Michigan. We…read morehad a bad situation yesterday that David and Jim solved with no hesitation. They were amazing. Their compassion and understanding was truly appreciated. We were at a gas dock and they put 40 gallons of diesel in a gas tank. We went to Walstrom Marine at about 3 o'clock. They immediately started to pump the fuel out. David stayed until 9 PM even though they closed earlier. They are an amazing group of people m. I would highly recommend them for any repairs and or emergency situations. My wife and I cannot thank them enough for saving the day and making us feel welcome. Thank you again wish you all a happy Fourth of July.

After not being able to find anyone to repair or replace the lower unit on my older Johnson…read moreoutboard locally, I searched the web for anyone that could help me. After a few minute search I found Joe at Advanced Marine in MI (I'm in Mass). He happened to have exactly what I was looking for and I received a perfectly rebuilt lower unit for my motor. It only took 3 days to arrive from the day I placed my order! So happy with the price and prompt service. That was 2 years ago....Recently, my son managed to blow out the lower unit again ("I didn't hit anything" :-) ). I called Joe...and even though I was out of the warranty period...Joe took care of me. I sent him my lower unit and he gave me a great price on the repair! The rebuilt unit was returned to me in about a week! Try to find that kind of service at your local yard! Thanks Joe and team! (aka http://lowerunit.net ) One Happy Customer.

Last fall I took my boat to be winterized and that it had an engine issue. I was told they would…read moreassess and take it out on a lake to assure the work was complete. They contacted me and said it only needed a new prop. Also informed me the bilge pump needed to be replaced. I told them I would bring it in the spring. At that time the boat went into storage. This spring I immediately took it to Walatrom's to get the bilge replace along with 3 other services they recommended. I was told it was to be done in 4wks. After 4wks I was told the bilge had a loose wire and was repaired. They gave me a Spring set up but had no time for the additional 2 request. I pick up my boat and got it on the lake with no change in engine performance. I removed the prop they installed put on a different one and returned it. They informed me they NEVER take boats on a lake, they only test them in the barrel. When the manager look at my original invoice he saw where it was to be tested in the lake. They did return my money for the prop. I had been going there for years when they were Traverse Bay Marine and their service was exemplary. I will never go to Walstrom's again or recommend them to anyone.
