I hired them for a…read morepre-purchase survey, and the level of professionalism and detail was five-star from start to finish. The survey itself was meticulous. The resulting report was comprehensive, easy to read, and full of clear, supporting photos for all over 60 findings and recommendations. Lee ensured I understood everything by taking the time to explain all the findings to me immediately after the survey, and followed up promptly with the final, detailed report a few days later. His honest and expert assessment made my decision not to purchase the vessel clear, ultimately saving me a significant amount of money and future headaches. For anyone needing a truly honest and meticulous marine assessment, look no further. I will definitely be a returning customer."

With that said, however, I am writing now about my experience over the last 2 months with Thunder Marine. My wife and I recently moved to Apollo Beach to have water access and the desire to have a boat. We attended two Boat Shows and went back and forth between new and used. We met Seth at the Tampa show and he introduced us to the Nautic Star. We knew we wanted a deck boat but were also considering a pontoon. The Nautic Star looked to meet our needs but we had a lot of questions and a lot of specifics we wanted covered. The staff from ownership to financing and from service to sales all were very patient with us. We committed to a boat that would be transferred to Thunder Marine the day of the St. Pete Boat show since the inventory did not have exactly what we wanted. One of the important factors in buying was that Thunder Marine would do a delivery and a 20 hour service remotely in Apollo Beach. We have no way to trailer it back and forth so this would save us a ton of effort. They scheduled delivery at a convenient time and Seth took us for our sea trial. He went over all the features and made sure both my wife and I were comfortable with everything. There were several manufacture defects we noted and Seth assured us that they would be addressed at the 20 hour service. By May, we had exceeded our 20 hours and were more than satisfied but were still concerned about the warranty issues. However, the service team made sure to work with our schedule and committed to picking up our boat, returning it to Thunder Marine and delivering it back to us after the service and warranty repairs. The decision to do this rather than service at our house was made due to the details of some of the warranty issues - all minor. I was more than impressed at the courtesy of the driver on both the pick up from our house and the return after the repairs. He even met me at the dock to load and unload the boat. When we got it back, all defects were replaced and the service was completed on time. The service department even text me with updates for pick up, the service process and the return. All in all, the entire process and the continued customer service efforts made posting this review an easy decision. We may not be a returning customer for a few years but when we are ready to shop again, I will trust the Thunder Marine team.

I have great things to say about my experience with Galati Yacht Sales and specifically Joseph…read moreGalati. I met Joseph a few years ago at a boat show and he kept in contact with me over those years. When I was looking for a larger boat we visited one that he had listed and asked all the right questions and then redirected us to another boat that we had not considered. We ended up buying what he suggested and love our boat. I also had Joseph sell my prior boat and due to his and Noah Davis' efforts they found a great home for it. Throughout the process there was constant communication and follow up and I always felt in good hands and that my interests were placed first. The entire process from beginning to closing was fabulous, and all the people (sales, service, finance etc) we dealt with at Galati Yacht Sales were great. it was a one stop business and Galati was able to help with everything. I highly recommend Joseph and the Galati Yacht Sales team.

Our salesman, Shane, was knowledgeable, professional, and took the time to explain everything about the boat. The entire purchase was easy and stress-free, and Shane included several extras that made the deal even better. The boat was delivered without a single issue. Kyle in the Service Department also went above and beyond to assist us with a few warranty concerns. When the boat was returned to us, it was truly better than ever. Everyone we dealt with at Boat & Motor Superstores was friendly, professional, and genuinely committed to providing excellent customer service. This was our first time purchasing a boat from them, but thanks to their outstanding team, it certainly won't be our last. We highly recommend them!
