Eddie's Marine is a small, but full service boatyard in Wilmington, CA, up the Main Channel of Los…read moreAngeles Harbor. It is the last "Mom & Pop" boatyard" in the area. They did a good job of launching my heavy 30 foot boat when I had her trucked down from the Bay Area a year and a half ago. This visit was for bottom paint, but the yard also found that my centerboard cable was broken. They replaced it with my spare cable, and helped me find a wire rope shop nearby to get some more spares made up. They also checked the through-hulls, replaced the galley sink drain through-hull valve, and re-built the valve for the engine raw water intake. Finally, after the boat was launched, they hoisted their electrical technician up with their crane, and he re-wired the masthead lights so that they now work. Apparently they had been wired backwards before! One of the best things about hauling at Eddie's Marine is that the people are so nice. The owner and manager, Shannon, lives on the property with her husband, and was both communicative and patient with my questions. She is at least the third generation to own and run the yard. Also, Alberto, the crane driver, and the person who dealt with the centerboard cable and the through-hulls, texted photos to me as work progressed. And finally, he gave my boat's bow a good shove when I left, to make sure my boat successfully headed down their narrow channel to more open water. That channel, by the way, was free of docked boats, unlike my previous visit in late 2023.

We have found and locked in our boat rental company. No need to look for another one.

I met with Jim Dragomir at 231 North Marina Drive , Alamitos Bay on 4/3/22. I gave Jim all of my…read morecontact information and told him the EXACT boat that I wanted to purchase. He took notes, and I told him I looked forward to hearing from him. Yesterday (7/26) while searching the internet, I found just the boat I wanted. It was listed by SEACOAST-YACHTS in Wilmington. Jim had the listing for a MONTH and never called me. I paid an associate $300 to go out and inspect the boat (I live in Arizona). He and the sales agent walked over to the slip and the boat was GONE! Sold by the seller before the sales agent was notified, losing me the boat (and him a sales commission). Jim is worthless as a sales agent, and I would NEVER recommend him , STAY AWAY! Not worth your time or money. Certainly a waste of mine.

This marina seems to be one of the better ones for the area. With my slip fees here, I also have…read moreaccess to other marinas in So Cal at no additional cost. There is a security access to get into the parking lot as well as a coded key to get to my boat. The restrooms are awesome. They are clean and well stocked. There are showers with hot water......(Some only have cold in other marinas). The restrooms are clean and neat. The docks have 24 hour manned security that watch the parking lot and the boats. Each of the slips have shore power and an extra storage bin for items that you want to store there. 24 hour access makes this one a plus. I can get to my boat anytime and any day of the week without problems. All of the people I have met on my dock are friendly and courteous. The staff that cleans the docks are friendly too. There are monthly wine and cheese tastings and they are open to anyone that I chose to bring with me. I highly recommend this marina to anyone who wants a safe place for their boat as I have found for mine.

My best friend and I reserved some wave runners from this location. I usually wave run at other…read morelocations but thought this would be a good location with great views. The weather was great and it was not crowded on the water. We arrived on time for the instructions. The check-in area is just a wooden desk with no signage. The woman giving instructions and tips had no personality. She was very dry and I am not even sure she smiled once. She never said thanks for coming out, enjoy the time, etc. Nothing about her said that she nor the company was appreciative of our business. Even her tone sounded like she didn't want to be there that day. She asked for our driver's license and credit card, and told us to proceed down to the dock. I read some previous reviews and I am not sure is she is the same person other people have commented about. But the consistent theme is that she didn't seem happy and it comes across when speaking with customers. Maybe she was not feeling well or having a bad day. I don't know. Sometimes people are just having a day. We then proceeded down the ramp to the area where a few guys helped us obtain life jackets, board the crafts, and understand how to operate them. These guys (either 2 or 3 of them) were pretty awesome. They had great attitudes, seemed to like the job, and made us feel welcome. Before the Queen Mary, the runners are throttled to not go above 5 MPH, in the wake zone. After we passed the QM and a cruise ship, we opened it up and got some speed. The water was pretty smooth and the breeze felt great. The weather was mid-70s and the views were great, especially getting close to the island and tankers. After we returned from our time on the water and excited the craft, we proceeded up the ramp to the wooden table to retrieve our DL and CC. No one was there so we called the main number. One of the guys said the young lady that we received the instructions from would be back. After she returned, we asked her about our items and she said, "They're in a bench on the dock." Did she go get them for us? Of course not. We returned to the dock to find out our driver's licenses and credit cards were in an unlocked bench on the dock. Anyone could have stolen them and we would not have known until we returned. That is totally unacceptable. They should be held in a secure location. Overall, it was a pretty ok experience. They guys made it a better experience. The best part was enjoying the day with my best friend. I am always open to visiting again and updating my review based on that experience. PROS: * Some employees are a good representative of the company and are the reason I would come back, and why I am giving the business a 3-star rating rather than a 2. If my review was based on just the wave runner and the experience with the guys at the dock, it would be a 4-star rating. * Nice size wave runners. Good weight. * Beautiful views. * Good price. * Easy to make a reservation and complete the waiver online. * Nice opp to have lunch at the Maya Hotel afterward. CONS: * Parking is at the Maya. Not a deal breaker though. There's plenty of parking. It was $14 for the first hour and $5 every 20 minutes after. * No signage at the desk where people get instructions. * Employee low interest in our business (not all employees). * Driver's licenses and credit cards are not kept in a secure area that is not easily accessible.
