The owner is EXTREMeLY rude, disrespectful, and absolutely NO customer service. A bit of the back story... I purchased a Coltex inverter which was highly recommended by Ramses (owner) for our application. We had it installed and it ended up being defected. We reached out to the business and requested a replacement. Owner Ramses refused to exchange it unless one of "his" technicians looked at the inverter. We agreed. None of his technicians were ever available and kept putting us off after multiple attempt. I went ahead and have another professional technician look at the inverter (paid out of my pocket) and he too guaranteed it was a defective inverter. reached out again to owner and he demanded to speak with our technician. He did, and approved my technicians background. While speaking with my technician he proceeded to speak badly about me saying he "didn't want to deal with me anymore" and so on. TOTALLY UNPROFESSIONAL. We finally decided to take it back into the store after a month of back and forth. Owner tested the inverter, saw that it was defective. Then proceeded to call his manufacture contact which told him to simply replace the inverter. He told him it was obviously a defective inverter. Owner Ramses then replaced it with a dusty one off the shelf! NOT AN ACTUAL NEW ONE! He said if I wanted a new one I would have to pay for shipping. INSANE! All this interaction happened with him cussing, yelling, and being completely disrespectful. He is obviously has issues. I have never experienced anything like this before. BEWARE!!! I plan on reporting this place with the Better Business Bureau as well. Unless you are buying many inverters from him then maybe you have a chance to get treated better. Otherwise, your best bet is to go somewhere else.

After having my 31 foot Sea Ray for almost a year with another marine company, my friends told me to go see Jesus, at Baja Marine. Wow what a difference! From the second I met Jesus he made me comfortable. He told me exactly what was wrong, and gave me a timeframe he could finish the work. Everything was tested in front of me, with pictures of all the mistakes made by my old mechanic. Jesus, exudes confidence, with his knowledge, skills and great mechanics working under him. He fixed everything he promised, he even told me my hot water heater was installed wrong. His guys fixed that as well. After spending too many thousands of $$$ with my first mechanic, Jesus came in and fixed everything that needed to be fixed. Treating my boat as his own. After wasting a year with the old mechanic, I could now finally take my boat to Channel Island. Jesus did two sea trails, and called us on the way to make sure everything was perfect and that my brother and I were safe. What an experience! Thank you Jesus and Baja Marine for allowing my wife and I live the dream of being a boat owner (with a boat that actually runs). Hints: Do not trust any one that says their a mechanic, make sure they are certified. Be quick to get a second opinion from Baja Marine. And lastly go with your friends opinion on his Marine Service guys. My wife says also go with your gut, she knew the second she talked to Jesus he had our best interest at heart. Thank you Jesus and Baja Marine for being the best you could ask for!

Worst boating repair shop experience ever!!! Consulted with…read moreBaja Marine on a raw water pump failure in August 2023 and did not get my boat returned until late July 2024 (11 Months). I was overcharged for services and the boat was returned with a $26000 invoice and it still wasn't repaired properly and alarms were still existing I have 40 years experience with boats and this shop was good when it catered to private boaters like myself and was located in Lomita. They seem to have grown too fast and they currently prioritize their commercial accounts and they could care less about private boaters like myself. I live in San Pedro and was told on a daily basis for 5 months that the boat would be finished tomorrow which wasted my time and most of the summer 2024. Upon finally returning my boat alarms were still present and the boat was not repaired properly so I had to take it to another shop. When evaluating a boat shop to fix your boat I would not recommend Baja Marine. 1. Over Promised (1 Month) and under delivered on expectations for returning my boat (11 Months) 2. Had to get get lawyers and police engaged to release the boat. Hostile owners Jesus Ramirez, Robert Munoz 3. Overcharged for services that were never addressed or repaired. Required to be repaired by another shop 4. Extremely difficult to work with Baja Marine (No response to calls and text) 5. Unprofessional techs and making it impossible to communicate. 6. Boat Shop is a complete mess (see photo of abandoned and unrepaired boats) with boats parked on top of each other making it impossible to walk through to check on your boat.

I found the kayak I wanted on WestMarine.com, and purchased two of them for delivery to the store. My boats arrived early, and the associate called to let me know they were in. When I arrived at the store, the clerk directed me to the back counter to gather the order paperwork, and the fellow back there walked me to the front where I paid. Same fellow helped me roll the kayaks to the truck and help me load them. Solid and straightforward service. And I even like the color.

Poor customer service and poor quality of boat. I have to…read moresay it's difficult for me to write this review as my family and I were very much looking forward to spending a beautiful day on the bait to celebrate my dads birthday. And all though we still made the best of it it really did not live up to what was promised and the amount of money we paid. So let's start with m: 1. The address did not match what was listed on their Yelp page and created a lot of confusion and frustration especially since we had kids with us. I had to text the owner, Mario, and he gave us another location to charter form which was not at all what was listed on their page. 2. Not sure if the captain of the day,Noah, was having a bad day or what but he was definitely not in the mood to greet us properly. He was very short, not so friendly and barely spoke to us during our ride. 3. The boat was not like the photos they presented or posted on Yelp. I even texted the owner and asked him to send me a few photos of what the boat will look like. It was definitely dirty, the coaches were so damaged and dirty they had black clothes over them. One of inside couches was wet, my uncle sat on it unknowingly making his pants wet and him uncomfortable for the rest of the ride. 4. The table surfaces were all damaged & chipped. We had to be careful for the kids not to get splinters when they would approach the table to grab something to eat. 5. Worst of it all was that we only watched cargo shipments for 2 hours!! On our phone call with Mario mentioned we can go through the canals and even get a far glimpse of the Queen Mary but we didn't. We even asked Noah to take us the other way around into the open water and he said no he needs to this way first (meaning by the cargo shipments). It was very disappointing since it was my dads actual birthday and the experience was completely robbed from us. It's very sad that we wasted over a thousand dollars and didn't receive what we had paid for. And I even texted Mario afterwards telling him our concerns but didn't get a reply back. Poor customer service.
