THIS COMPANY IS AMAZING. We have been using CCM for over 5 years. We found them to rebuild our…read moreexhaust for our 2004 Yamaha 4 strokes dual 225s for our Grady White. This was NO easy job and they had to do it for BOTH engines. They have Hauled us out, Winterized, Wrapped AND DELIVERED our boat for the past 5 years. For the past 5 years including YESTERDAY they have launched us. We have needed work done in the past where they have hauled our boat out from our mooring, Fixed it and brought it back. Not many companies I know do that. They are AMAZING, FANTASTIC, AWESOME, And FAIR PRICED. If you have been around boats all your life, you know that repairs take time. It's not like going to a car dealership with 25 guys on staff to cater to your every need. When you find a Marine Mechanic that does great work, you hold on tight to them and treat them like GOLD. If your boat is your baby then treat the man taking care of your baby WELL. If you are a RUDE A**HOLE then please expect the same treatment in return. The guy ranting in the review below seems to be one of those guys. DEMANDING service but not being extremely clear of what he wants. You are a grown individual. You have the choice to go somewhere else if the mechanic will not give you an estimate or put things in writing for you. Verbal requests without written confirmation? That's on you!! He seems to purchase aftermarket Crap and then blames the mechanic when the boat runs poorly. We all know that if you buy CRAPPY parts to save money then you run the risk of your baby running CRAPPY. Don't expect any type of warrantee for aftermarket parts. That's only common sense. Your boat is a LUXURY item so expect to pay a FAIR price to maintain and fix it. If you pull your boat out late in the season, then you run the risk of temperatures dipping below freezing before the mechanic can get to your project. Then in the middle of a Pandemic this guy DEMANDS service AGIAIN. Honestly, where does this guy get off treating others this way? This company is wonderful and I recommend them as long as you are an intelligent person who knows how to treat others. Additionally, Please look at the other reviews for John A. He is not satisfied with ANYONE in the marine industry. Seems he is RUDE to everyone he comes in contact with.

I was scuba certified long time ago and logged hundreds of dives until life changed and I took a break from diving for 14 years. Recently i came to the conclusion that diving was my passion and I was literally miserable been out of the water. My road back to diving took me to Discover Diving where I worked and still work with Jeff and Deb to map my way back to diving. What amazes me and made it special was that both Jeff and Deb are notorious, in a good way, to make sure you feel and experience that you are the only person that matter to them from the time you come into the store to the time you leave.

The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about teaching proper technique. Instead of crowded classes where kids get lost in the group, each swimmer receives feedback, corrections, and encouragement throughout the lesson. You can genuinely see the progress week by week, not just in swimming skills, but also in confidence in the water. If you're looking for a swim program that prioritizes safety, technique, and personal development, Swimm With Timm is truly one of the best choices in the area. Highly recommended!
