I talked to Roger about the boat and the outboard and he immediately was able to suggest the areas we should focus on based on his knowledge of the brand and year of the boat and motor. On the day of the survey, Roger showed up early and was ready to get to work. He did a great job going through each part of the boat, asking the owner a number of questions to understand how the boat was used which gave him a better idea of things he should look at. Roger completed a comprehensive review of all the major parts of the boat, asked me what me intentions were with the boat, and the price I was going to pay. He picked up in a few items that needed to be addressed and was immediately able to tell me what the cost would be to repair them. I have used a number of marine mechanics in my years of boating, and Roger is one of the best. Very responsive, and very reasonable with his prices. I would highly recommend him for marine repair!

Chris runs an uber professional outfit: I was basically deciding whether or not I would be getting out of boating. I had tried out numerous marinas on the same BLOCK. All of which, I was inherently dissatisfied with the sercice. Not only does Chris GO OUT of his way to satisfy his customers, he goes above and beyond. I am the only small boat on a jetski dock, Chris is ALWAYS ensuring I am satisfied with my service at Open Bay. I have never ever felt like a customer here. He truly has his marina members best interests at heart. If I even think my motor is running rough, I hardly have to mention it. All of the other marinas in the area are truly a waste of time. I strongly suggest NOT trying out your hard earned money anywhere else. This marina is owned by a stand up, /true to their word family, Open Bay Marina is a great addition to the south shore boating community. I will continue to give them my business and recommend their services to others.

Left that day saying what a genuinely nice guy. Took me a few years and tons of research as to what make and model boat I wanted, settling on Crownline and I finally pulled the trigger, frequently entering the showroom numerous times picking his brain about all things bowrider and as I said, finally pulled the trigger. Coincidentally, unknown to me a friend told me he also uses Kehls for winter storage and couldn't be happier. Anyways, throughout the process I came to know his 2 brothers Mike and Joe as well as Joe's wife Anne whom handled the closing. From 2020 on, I have had only an excellent experience with the ENTIRE Kehl family. They sell family boats as well as fishing boats. You would be making a huge mistake if you didn't at least pay them at least one visit; I'm pretty certain you'll be happy you did!

We had a great time for about an hour or so but about half way back the engine started sputtering and then died. We tried a few things but admittingly while we can both turn a wrench, neither of us are all that handy when it come to boats. While he was trying to access the carb (it's a pretty old but cool boat), I was already on Yelp looking for help. The fellas at Kehl's were as cool as a cucumber and as nice as my uncles. We tried a few more things but to no avail. We simply cracked a couple colds ones and waited a short while for them to arrive and tow us back to their marina. While I didn't ask him how much they charged for their work, I do know they were able to get her fired up the next day and he was pretty pleased with it all. I don't own my own boat yet (aside from canoes/kayaks), but when I do, I'm surely glad I now know of a friendly, reliable and honest boat mechanic/ marina nearby!

They repaired our 13' Boston Whaler Sport helm/thwart seat that cracked thanks to a designed-in manufacturing flaw that placed a spliced in the balsa support right in the middle of the seat. We were lucky that it took 22 years before this flaw presented itself. This is probably due to our taking great care of our boat that we are the original owners. (After our seat cracked, we discovered that every other similar era Whaler that we could find, had their seat cracked exactly as ours failed, validating Bob's diagnosis of this design flaw.) Given our desire to maintain our boat's showroom condition we are so glad that we chose to have Gulf Fiberglass repair our boat. Thanks to their excellent work our seat looks as if it never was damaged. Additionally, our seat is now even better than new, thanks to Bob's suggestion to replace the inadequate balsa core with the strongest yet light weight core replacement available for this repair - Nidacore. As soon as Bob suggested the upgrade to a Nidacore replacement over the flimsy balsa core we knew that we found the right craftsman to do the repairs. Every other "repair" shop we called before speaking with Bob gave us sketchy explanations on how they planned to make the repair. Every one of these other shops left way too much doubt in my mind to entrust them with making the correct repair. So if you want high quality craftsman who take the time to do things the right way and also go above and beyond to improve your repair, If possible, then we highly recommend Gulf Fiberglass. We're glad that we did and know that you will be too! Wendy & John Penn
