We talked about the issues I was having with my boat. He was able to come to my boat a few days later and identified the problem. Mahlon installed the new carburetor. He came back a second day to do some final adjustments. The boat started and sounds great!!! Mahlon was professional, knowledgeable, and reasonably priced. I highly recommend MW Marine and I will definitely use MW Marine again.

    I cannot say enough about this small business. The owner Mahlon is one of the finest contractors I…read morehave ever worked with, period. I had a Silverton MY 352 I was trying to sell in Coronado, CA but reside in Pensacola, FL I struggled with trying to get repairs done I needed to sell the boat. I called and flew to San Diego to find a company to do the repairs I needed. Each one I talked to said they would show up. No one ever did! Then I learned of MW and everything changed immediately. Mahlon called me back right after I called from Florida. He showed up the NEXT DAY and accessed the repairs I needed. He then laid out a game plan to take on each necessary repair and quoted costs up front. Once given the go, he kept me informed along every step of the way, providing pictures of before and after with every repair. Can't say enough about this young man and his company. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. S, TK CAPT USN Ret.

    This review should be Zero stars for FWM but they did convince me to spend a lot of money and for…read moreawhile I believed they had my best interests in mind. That was my biggest mistake. The main proprietor, Gary, seems extremely knowledgeable but it doesn't matter if he's not doing the job and there is no Quality Assurance of the work performed. Each time I received my boat back from FWM, it was a mess with oil and fluids everywhere and additional problems to follow shortly after. I repeatedly tried to trust this outfit but it was in vain. Before you use FWM, ask who is doing the work and how they will ensure quality control of the work they do. A technician sent alone to my vessel was a fluid tech from automotive field with little knowledge of the boat he was working on. Service writer is extremely nice and friendly but also a transplant from automotive. Business partner is a hot head and was incapable of reinstalling a sea water impeller which I had to do for them while they present and were being paid to work on my vessel. After performing two major services to my vessel, requiring haul-out and lengthy down-time, FWM failed to properly secure an exhaust bypass hose connected to a through-hull and the result was an engine room filled with diesel exhaust that shut off power the the turbo and rendered my vessel nearly limp in open seas under rough conditions. The culprit was two hose clamps left open after their removal of transmission for a service that may have caused additional and larger issues. The soot alone coated every inch of the engine room and ruined the fresh air intakes for two engines. Leaving the boat a mess after service is bad enough. Having additional mechanical issues on the same component after two very expensive and connected repairs is extremely coincidental. But, creating potentially catastrophic damage to a vessel off-shore and underway is negligence and should be criminal. Instead of taking any responsibility, Gary will defend this by pointing out how I lost my cool when they reported a completely damaged outrigger through saying, "I'm sure you know about this already" and then telling me "it's not our responsibility to give you the name of the person that told us". Or how I was upset when I received a lecture on "Industry Standards" after I alerted them that the tech should not start the engines without opening the raw water intakes first. I'm sure FWM feels they did the best for me. That is the scary part. They feel righteous about their work. Rather, they failed each time to even clean up after themselves, left bolts out when doing reassembly, damaged in-tact hoses during reassembly causing leaks, and failed to secure a critical exhaust hose leading to multiple issues and eventually causing a major cleanup job and replacement of expensive components. Each time FWM has defended themselves instead of doing the job right or at least providing a customer with proper info an opportunity to ask if the issues were related. Yet, still I paid and paid and even wanted them to come back and finish the job. Why? Because they were to my knowledge at the time, the only show in town and also because I believed they would make it right. Boy was I wrong. Part, service writers, and techs are not to blame here. This review lies squarely on the owners. They present a heck of a front and even take the time to write lengthly dissertations on their work but they don't follow through, check the work conducted by their junior technicians, or stand behind their mistakes. Worst experience about boating in 20+ years on the water. I have built and maintained relationships with all of FWM's surrounding vendors for years and thought this was to be the same. Instead, this experience makes me sure I will never own a vessel with similar components requiring me to work with this group again.
