Such nice and helpful people…read more.. Last weekend my wife and I rented a boat from them and Chris was super helpful in getting us prepped with everything we needed. What I really liked was that no one at this facility read the riot act as they were walking us thru the process, which is what my experience with a LOT of boat rental places is... everything was done in a very relaxed manner and everything was explained very nicely We really enjoyed the 4 hour boat ride and did a loop around Waldron Island. Our boat died in the water after about three hours. Nate, Chris and Natalie were there within 15 minutes and helped us get back. They are all SUCH KIND and NICE people, they took care of the issue immediately, put us on a new boat and brought us back meanwhile towed the other boat. Despite the minor hiccup, a worthwhile experience...

Wonderful opportunity to rent a boat and explore the area from the water. Well worth doing as part…read moreof a visit to Orcas Island. The people who run it are very nice, and informative. Only negatives are the web site is out of date and they don't actually rent everything that's currently advertised. It's not an especially inexpensive way to spend a day (depending on your personal situation) but is a memorable, scenic experience. Not recommended if you don't have some boating skills, there are some shallow spots, rocks and tidal conditions to be aware of that could turn a fun day sour - but this isn't their fault of course. Overall a very good & fun experience that also felt safe. Seeing the islands from the water and not just from the ferry route is great!

Randy has worked on both of my boats, both gas and diesel…read more He has always been on time and budget with very good work quality. He is also a bit rare in that he will take the time to explain things and work with you to expand your own knowledge. With my newer boat, he immediately knew good details of my engine/trans make and what to look forward to/pre-emptively fix going forward to ensure multiple years of future use. Randy is also great at returning calls! I gladly recommend Randy and NW Marine to other boat owners.

I will definitely use them for routine maintenance too.

He is also a licensed mechanical surveyor and is in continuous demand for his services. Fair, unbiased, and brutally honest about required work and costs.

Stick to his recommendations and you'll have many years of enjoyable cruising.

We had a Mercury motor bulletin service issue to address, and our boat is moored in Anacortes while we live out of town. North Harbor Diesel was by far the most responsive of all the qualified service providers we contacted. We left our keys with them, and once the parts arrived, they promptly took action and handled everything: moved the boat, hauled it out, completed the service, and returned it to our slip on the same day and stayed communicative the whole process. They did it all with a high level of professionalism that stands out. Highly recommend!

Since I bought the boat a variety of issues have come up and some required replacement parts others just maintenance work. It has been my experience that Flower's does good work at a very fair price. Joe, the owner, is one of the more enjoyable people to deal with. He is patient and will explain what they are doing in a manner that is easy to understand. He and his mechanic are also VERY willing to give advice on work that you might undertake yourself and avoid a trip to the shop. All in all, a great business to do work with.
