Here's a good one...never buy a boat on EBAY! Or from these liars!…read moreMarineMax listed a Nautique Air SV211 on EBAY and represented it as EVERYTHING works! HAH! The ONLY thing that worked was the radio and even then the remote did not. This boat was SOOOO neglected that another Nautique dealer in Michigan just shook their heads and basically said "told you so". They did a masterful job putting the old gal back on her feet after I paid out another 8k! I complained to the Sales Manager and he basically told me pound sand.. you bought a "used" boat. CORRECTION...I bought a majorly misrepresented boat from a bunch of liars.... Caveat emptor anyone choosing to deal with these guys...

I gave him the information and he responded that his boat was already discounted, and that they would not consider taking my trade. Just dismissed me outright, and ended the conversation without considering that I could have purchased the boat without the need for trading my current boat in to bring down the cost. They apparently don't realize that there are plenty of other options available to me. My current boat is in great condition, I'm in no hurry, and as summer winds down, the opportunities will only increase. Don't waste your time with these morons.

Rented a brand new Yamaha AR240 jet boat from the Surdyke Port 20 location for 8 hours and couldn't…read morehave asked for a better experience. The prices are comparable to a lot of other rental locations around Osage Beach but for better, newer boats. Made the reservation over the phone, which required a $50 deposit. Easy. The paperwork went quickly and the dock hands were really helpful the day of our rental. I should have gotten their names to mention them in the review, but I failed in that respect (apologies). My first job was a dock hand at a Yamaha marina in North Carolina, so I was already pretty familiar with the boat, but the guy that went over the boat with me was very helpful and did a great job expediently and concisely going through the checklist and orienting me to the boat. We went back to the marina once during our day on the lake to get fuel and to rent a tube from the office, and of course again at the end of the day to top off and turn in the boat and tube. The same dock crew was there each time and were always polite, personable and helpful despite having been out in the sun for approximately eleventy hours by the end of the day. I received a return visit punch card which allows me to earn up to a 50% discount on future rentals. While I am personally unlikely to return and use it since I visit the Ozarks once every 5-6 years, I thought it was a great idea, and a nice touch. 50% off a Yamaha boat rental is a big deal. For all of you that are interested in launching your own boats from the Surdyke Port 20 location, beware: $15 to launch and $15 to recover, which is insanity. Not sure if that's the going rate around the lake (I imagine not), but that's madness, if so. However, if you're looking to rent a boat, I definitely recommend giving Surdyke a shot.
