He was amazing in giving us additional instruction that was very much appreciated. This team is to be praised for their efforts and all their heartfelt genuine care.

The whole experience from beginning to end was great. Highly recommend. Tina Marie We purchased our pontoon from Foothills Marie of Lake Norman and could not be more pleased with the outstanding service and value in all departments. My wife and I visited several boat dealers in the Lake Norman area and settled here at Foothill Marine. We were greeted by a pleasant attentive staff and a very clean show room. My wife and I would like to thank ED in sales who took great care of us right from the start. Ed is extremely knowledgeable in explaining all of the differences of several models and layouts. He made sure that all of our questions were answered. Foothills Hills Marie has a wide selection of boats to choose from and made our experience a pleasure, no pushy sales pitches whatsoever. They delivered our pontoon in perfect order as promised. ED went over the entire pontoon prior to us heading out. We had a GPS/fishfinder installed as well as the second battery prior to pickup. The install was done professionally on both units and delivered on time. Ed did a fantastic job keeping us up-to-date on the delivery and made sure everything was going smoothly as promised. He checked in on us on us after the sale as well to make sure we are 100% satisfied and to see if we needed anything. We would also like to thank Danya in the finance department who made our purchase go very smoothly and had all of our documents in order and ready to go right on time as well. We were then greeted by Josh who thanked us for our business at foothills Marine and discussed the proper break in procedures and answered any questions or concerns we had. Josh put us on the water and made sure everything on board was working as it should. He verified the Coast Guard package that was included on board and took us out to get comfortable with our new pontoon. Foothills Marine is a class act. We couldn't be happier with The professionalism, honesty and all-around good nature working with the Marine dealer who truly enjoys what they do and do it very well. We are really enjoying our new pontoon and wouldn't hesitate to do business with the foothills marina Lake Norman in the future. Stop in and see their selections and meet their staff. They will take great care of you. Dan

We recently purchased a boat from Talley's Pier 77 Marine, and I cannot recommend them highly…read moreenough. Honestly, when we walked in, we had zero expectations of buying from them. We were already set on a different boat at a different place, but so many people kept telling us to check out Talley's that we finally decided to go--more out of due diligence than anything else. That decision changed everything. The first person who greeted us was Billy, the owner himself. He spent a long time with us, not trying to "sell," but genuinely educating us about boats in a way that was actually enjoyable and easy to understand. Shortly after, we met Taylor, our salesman, who was equally patient, friendly, and never pushy. He walked us through the two boats we were considering, answered every question we had (and we had a lot!), and took us outside to see them in person. When we mentioned wanting to grab lunch to think it over, Billy insisted that anytime you buy a boat, you should be able to test drive it. That was something no one else had ever told us. True to his word, Taylor met us later that afternoon at Ramsey Park and gave us a full test drive. That was the moment we knew--we had found our boat. The customer service didn't stop there. When the boat was delivered, Tommy spent the entire afternoon with us--from 1:00 until after 5:00--going over every detail. He walked us through how to use the boat, anchor, navigate safely, and even took us out on the water to practice. As first-time boat owners, that level of hands-on training was invaluable. Within one afternoon, I felt more confident about our boat than I do about my own car. Our boat is mechanically sound, looks brand new, and came with the peace of mind of a warranty--something that mattered a lot to us. And on top of all that, it checked every box: comfortable for my 85-year-old mother-in-law, beautiful on the water, and easy to handle. We asked a thousand questions along the way, and every single one was answered with patience and care. What really stood out, though, is how much they made us feel like family. They reassured us that if we ever needed help--whether it was a question, a breakdown, or just getting comfortable with the boat--they were only a phone call away, even giving us personal cell numbers. Who does that anymore? If I had to come up with a one recommendation, it would be this: they need a merch store. They did send us home with a Regal hat (which we love), but a Talley's T-shirt or sweatshirt would be amazing--because after this experience, we'd wear it proudly everywhere. We never planned to buy from Talley's, but after this experience, we'll never buy from anywhere else and if you needed a sign you need a boat, this is it. Thank you, Billy, Taylor, and Tommy, and all of the staff, for going above and beyond!

Purchasing a Boat can be a very stressful experience, especially for a first time boat buyer. When…read moremy wife and I first started doing research on brands through watching countless videos and reading different websites, it's clear that there are many great boat manufacturers that are out there in the market to suite the different buyer needs. However, the one thing that is certain is that not all all dealers who carry those boat are the same when it comes to professionalism and service. We had 3 brands that we narrowed our search down to and began reaching out to those dealers asking high level questions about the inventory, their thoughts on the models we were interested in, and various other questions from storage to maintenance that extend far beyond the initial purchase. There was really only one salesperson who went above and beyond to make sure I felt good about investing my time in stopping by their dealership to take a look at the boat of interest. Ed Florentino Jr. sent me about a dozen videos and sound clips explaining the differences between options I've had questions about, engines, and even a clip about how to winterize the boat before I even confirmed a demo with him. I immediately confirmed my appointment with Ed and drove out to Charlotte with my wife for a test drive. The experience could not have continued to be better but it did. Ed spent a good 30 minutes understanding what we were looking to get out of boat ownership and what was important to us. He then invested another hour showing us the boat and letting us get a feel for the Regal LS2. At no point did he try to sell us the boat we were on but just continued to ask questions and listen to our answer - if you're in the profession of selling you can appreciate this very much. Sara and Sharma were wonderful to work with providing insight and flexibility into the financing and answering additional questions for us as well. We were in and out of financing/paper work in no time. On our delivery day, Ed spent a good 5+ hours with us going over towing a boat, launching/retrieval, to docking. As new owners who were initially nervous and excited, I can't thank Ed for the time he spent with us to make sure we felt comfortable with our new boat and ensure that our first experience as boat owners was positive. To Ed and the staff at Talley's Pier 77... we can't thank you enough. There was something that Ed said that really stuck with me... " My job as a salesperson begins after the sale". I firmly believe that Talley's Pier and Ed live by those words, and while our next boat purchase is far out, we do know where we will turn when it's time for an upgrade!

I'm still looking for a replacement RV and Carolina Coach isn't too far away. We reached out to…read moretheir sales department and were in touch with Matt, who invited us to stop in. So we did and he showed us around. First, three Class B vans. These were all built on the Ram Promaster base and started at $70,000 (marked down massively from the sticker price) to over $120,000. Not a huge selection in our price range but they're nice vans even if they didn't fit my needs. While we were here, let's take a look at some of the travel trailers. Matt was again helpful, getting the gold cart and bringing us to what we wanted to see. The basic and the "one better than the basic". Both are nice and interesting and while it was the nice shiny object, it was great. Once we got into our car to head home, we realized that a travel trailer just won't work. There's no stealth and you can't park it anywhere. Especially not in my driveway or my Dad's driveway. HOA covenants and all that. We mentioned the atrocious Yelp reviews to Matt. He thinks they're fake or created by competitors. "We really don't take any notice of it. It's just a website for complaints." In the end, we didn't make a purchase from Carolina Coach. But Matt continues to be helpful and provide info. Maybe one day, they'll have something we want. [Review 16908 overall - 3235 in North Carolina - 424 of 2022.]
