    The tube that they provide was broken when we realize that we already were in the middle of the…read morewater . When we came back and we told them they didn't accept it even though we paid for it we had to deal with a broken tube. We couldn't enjoy our tubing.since one of the Handel was broken.they even didn't give us a refund for that.

    This place is nothing but a bait and switch! I purchased a Monterey M6 which by the way has been…read moreturning out to be nothing but garbage! Do not buy a Monterey product. They will not warranty anything and utilize more fine print than you can imagine. I was sold this boat with a 7 year bow to stern warranty which I was told covered everything for 7 years. Being new to boating I trusted the Brodies (Owners of Yankee Boating) First they ordered me the wrong boat! Interior wrong, helm wrong, all electronics wrong. Mind you it was delivered begging of boating season so obviously not being happy I didn't want the wrong boat, the deal was I would sign papers on this boat start making payments and use it and they would order the new one for the next year! Next year comes new boat is late and in the body shop for a problem with the decals. Get the boat first couple years are ok little issues become bigger issues but I don't want to be without boat till end of the season so I compile all issues after 4yrs and in October 2024 contact Josh In The service dept and says send me pics I will contact Monterey and we will take care of issues. So after 5 months of no communication I called and he said we haven't heard back I'll call you Monday (3days later) and of course nothing. So 2 weeks later I go in and Charlie who was not very nice either I think because I bothered him on lunch said Josh was on lunch looked it up and said I don't see anything he will call you today I promise.lol Yeah a week and a half later Josh calls me and says all warranty has been declined there is nothing we can do!! Not happy I say have Andrew Brodie call me (the owner). In the mean time I call Monterey and the guy says none of these thing are covered and the 7 year total warranty was nothing what I was sold when I bought the boat! Here are issues. Sea Deck is pulling up everywhere, all of the hinges on everything that opens on the boat are litterally falling apart. Gel coat is cracking everywhere! And the 5k touchscreen helm option is delaminating and coming apart. It clearly says on the bs 7 yr warranty and issues w engine instrumentation is covered. He said well I was the one who declined warranty and Yankee never even sent pictures of the screen! I said well I have them I will send them to you and he would not take them from me said they had to come from dealer. He then asked if it worked I said yes but falling apart and I have to keep it covered so it doesn't get wet and he said well it works so not warranting it. So obviously frustrated I hang up and wait for Andrew Brodie to call me because to this point thought we had a great relationship in me buying a over $100k bought and paying it right off, he will surely take care of this situation. Get the call from him days later and he says well warranty is black and white nothing that we could do!?!? What???? You and your brother told me this 7 yr warranty covered everything!!! He says no not everything then the slime ball salesmen the REAL Andrew Brodie comes out and starts reading all the fine print and picks the warranty claim apart and I say this has been going on for years and when I called service to complain was told compile the problems we will take care of it over winter here we are because all of the fine print warranty has passed. So bottom line in my dealings with Yankee Boating,Monterey, and Andrew Brodie watch out he is that slimy used car salesmen that your parents warned you about when you were a kid selling you a Monterey product that truly is garbage and both him and the manufacturer know it and run the fine print game better than anyone in the business!

    Say for 6 hours friendly people not a fish nothing to offer sorry for the long morning. Hopped out…read moreof the boat right at noon and have a good day. Get fishing is a gamble but better off catching a whale bait for $60 and ave the time and money.

    If you are looking to watch someone fish for 4 hours, then this is the charter for you!…read more When we first boarded the boat we were instructed to take a seat, JJ took us to the fishing spot and started to set up (at this point apart from telling us to sit down he had not spoken to us, just drove boat and ate his fruit) After a few mins we all got up (myself, husband and 2 teenagers) to join JJ at the fishing rods, we were told to sit back down. This is where we sat for 4 hours!!! We were only allowed to get up to reel in a fish and take a picture taken. 1 person get up whilst the other 3 stayed seated. My daughter LOVES fishing, has been on many fishing charters, fished in many different countries, on lakes, rivers, sea. She was VERY excited about this charter, it was the highlight of her trip, she left her seat TWICE!!! My husband asked if we could participate more (net in fish etc) to which JJ replied "No, I have been doing this 26 years, I do not teach' JJ ran around for 4 hours, manning 4 rods, muttering things as he ran past us to change lures, muttering as he looked out at the lake so we could not hear him. After 2 hours both teenagers were so bored they started looking at their phones (by this point both kids had only left their seat 1 time each) In 4 hours, my son only left his seat 3 times (total of maybe 3-4 minutes) My daughter left her seat twice (total of 2-3 minutes) my husband twice and I did not leave my seat at all. We caught 5 fish in total (4 too small to keep) how many fish we caught was irrelevant to us; we wanted a family fishing trip! not a sit down and watch someone else fish. When my husband tried to talk to JJ when we were back at the dock JJ was aggressive and blamed us for not being interested!!! Would NOT recommend this charter!!!

    Found this on the internet yesterday…read more Sad and tragic news regarding Tom. ----- Obituary for Thomas P. Jones V November 29, 1987-August 18, 2022 Thomas P. Jones V has sadly passed away on the evening of August 18, 2022, as a result of a motorcycle accident. He died doing something he truly enjoyed. Thomas graduated from South Glens Falls in 2006 and continued on to get an Associate's degree from ACC. After graduating from ACC, he worked at Trustco bank in South Glens Falls for a short time until he realized that he had to follow his dreams. Five years ago, he decided he wanted to open his own business and that is when Devocean Watersports was born. He managed to put together a great team of employees that helped him with boat charters and jet-ski tours on Lake George, out of the hotel "Twin Birches." Thomas loved his business and put everything he had into it. His smile and enthusiasm was infectious to everyone he met along his journey in life. He really enjoyed teaching people how to do things that was out of their norm. Thomas also made many friends down in Marathon within the keys were he went every winter, enjoying life to the fullest. He was predeceased by his father Thomas P. Jones IV. Thomas is survived by his mother Denise Jones, his brother Patrick Jones, his grandparents Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bowen and two uncles Christopher and Bob Bowen. Family and friends may call from 10 am to 12 noon on Monday, August 29, 2022 at Regan Denny Stafford Funeral Home, 53 Quaker Rd., Queensbury, NY. Burial will follow at Pine View Cemetery, Queensbury, NY. A celebration of Thomas' life will continue at the Highland Country Club immediately following the burial. Please no suits, wear flip flops and don't forget to bring stickers. https://www.sbfuneralhome.com/obituaries/Thomas-Jones-123/#!/Obituary ------ Tom, May You Rest In Eternal Peace. I always, and I mean ALWAYS, had a great time jet skiing with you every summer since you opened your business in 2017. My most sincere condolences to your family and friends. Until we meet again...
