Amazing! Just amazing. Gisele is running a great business. Super fast service. Excellent quality. Super knowledgeable. They made a bow cover, a cockpit cover, new carpeting for 2014 Chris Craft Launch. Her work was far superior to the covers that came on the boat when new. Chris Craft could learn a thing or two from Overboard Designs. read more

My boat upholstery looks good as new! Wonderful job! Very impressed with the work yall did. It looks seamless !

Gisele was a pleasure to work with replacing the front vinyl on my pontoon boat. She will work hard to make sure you are satisfied with the options available to you. The end result looked better than the factory vinyl. I look forward to working with her in the future to finish up the rest of my boat. read more

added two Boat Cover Photos with vent updates Selbin is one of the master craftsmen at Overboard Designs Gisele the master designer at Overboard Designs worked with my bride on the design 24 years and near NEW with refresh on carpet & upholstery The process was professional, and as we uncovered unknowns to the original estimate, Gizelle was transparent & fair. Great overall experience NOTE the Cover was as we expected -- as we expected we would need to solve the tenting strategy to insure that the cover shed rain read more

We worked with Gisele to re-do our very old and worn upholstery in and on our 23' boat. She was AMAZING to work with. We came into the shop with a crazy dream of doing hot pink and teal throughout the upholstery and Gisele seemed just as excited as we did with the idea. She helped to create a design that gave us what we wanted, but didn't look "ridiculous". With those colors, it could've easily gone either way. Communication was easy with her keeping us up to date on the project the entire way and being flexible with us when we needed to postpone for a week. They redid all of our seats and also our cabin cushions. Turnaround was quick for such a large job and they even came to our boat at the marina and installed. I have no regrets using Overboard! Thanks, Gisele! read more

If you have a boat you really care about, and you want to make it look new again or add some flair, there is nowhere else to take it than Overboard Designs in Buford, Georgia. The first thing you notice when you walk in the door to the left are numerous awards for quality and design. Even though my Donzi is older, it has been stored inside and looked new except the original seats suffered some aging and the boat was worth a refresh. I met with Gisele and told her what I wanted to do. Thanks to her savvy eye for design, it looks better than what I could have ever imagined. It is amazing and I couldn't be happier. Even one little concern was handled promptly and earned them a 5 Star review, they earned it. read more

They took my old Mastercraft and put the factory stitching in place where they were, on colors not offered when my boat was built; they took my old boat and made it BRAND NEW! I am particular and they did a great job.. would highly recommend!! Gave them the freedom to come up with some of the design, I picked the colors and they BLEW MY MIND. My friends and family were asking which new boat I bought. Let's just say they saved me $200k+ and I'll never sell this boat now. read more

DO NOT USE Overboard (Overpriced) Designs or Cibele to do any work if you value your boat. I got ripped off and ripped off bad. They may have once done swell work back in the day but that day is no longer. I would give no stars if I could. Cibele talks a real good game and comes out selling you a fine product but in the end, she leaves the work to her minions and boy do they suck. She also lies and steals your hard earned money from you. She quoted new foam, I paid for new foam and I got my old foam sold back to me. This is what we call FRAUD boys and girls. She would NOT FIX nor offer any refund. Took most of the upholstery to another shop and then sent her pics and all she did was lie and make silly drawings to put down the other shop which actually did incredible work and not the first time they had to re-do her work. I was so depressed over this. She got lucky in that I am a very busy guy, with travel all over the world, running a small business and did not have time to drive an hour to file a suit in small claims court. It would have been an open and shut case as I have all the documentation via email and the photos of the old foam. All in all, a six week job became a 2 year project thanks to this lady that only cares about appearances and her fancy new Escalade. Please, do not use this woman's shop unless you want to feel like shit. It was all smoke and mirrors for me. When I showed up a second time, she wouldn't come down from her second story office to talk to me. She pawns you off on her errand girls and they aren't any better. She has become a thief and a crook. I don't say that lightly but that is what it amounts to when you steal money and don't do what you say you are gonna do. I am not the only one I know that has had issues lately as her reputation is quickly changing in the Buford Area. I have a list of vendors (been in the boating industry for many, many years) that I have called and asked them not to use her for recommendations. Most said they would not as she has increased her prices exponentially and the end product is very hastily done. You have been warned!! So to recap, $800 is what she charged me for basically 6 six square feet of foam with only doing a few seat cushions meanwhile reusing my old foam (quoted all new in writing) in the larger pieces such as the seat backs. I then paid $1700 to have the work re-done. She wouldn't even consider paying my wife and I back even though you can clearly see by pics that her shop screwed me over royally. Anyway, this is what you get when you choose the wrong shop. First pic is old foam she kept, second pic is shit work she did on seat cushions, third pic is old foam she lied about, and last two pics are from the new shop after fixing all of her errors. read more

The owners of Overboard Designs made a Sunday appointment with us so we could drop off and pick up going to church. They done an amazing job with our dining table seats for our boat in Orange Beach. I will definitely be using again in the near future. read more

Gary and I would recommend Overboard Designs to anyone looking to upgrade your seating for your boat. They provided a great service to us and really understood our wants and needs. Once their work was completed some people thought we had purchased a new boat. Workmanship and materials are quality and the colors matched the boat beautifully. We recently also had the sun pad and cooler completed to match our seating and wow! Thanks so much!! read more

trusted business that is easy to work with. Did a good quality job and even drove across town to pick up and deliver the cushions.

I recently had the Captain's chairs and seat cushions of my Chaparral 246 reupholstered by Overboard Designs and they did a terrific job for me. They were able to match the interior perfectly and the newly upholstered seats and cushions look great! Jim P. read more

We ordered a sunpad which we are happy with. However, when they shipped it, they just placed it in a box with no protective padding. The little padding around the back rest was taped together with a packing tape that adhered to the back rests. I have left continual messages asking the company to return my calls. I have not heard from them in a two week time period. I did email them letting them know there was a shipping issue and to please call. Their response, in an email, was what is the problem. I would not deal with this company again due to their lack of business etiquette. Deborah Dahlen read more

I spent over $12K on a new interior and cover for my wakeboard boat. I must say the upholstery looks great but after 4 trips back, the cover still will not fit. Cibele seems to think remaking the cover is going above and beyond. To me it is simply what was expected and paid for in the first place. Never again. Horrible experience dealing with Cibele. The rest of the staff was very nice. Now I am stuck spending another $1000 to obtain a cover that will actually stay on the boat and not collapse when it rains. Very unhappy. read more

This is our 2nd time using the Overboard Designs team to improve the look of one of our boats. Cibele and team are very professional with setting up appointments and sending a quote, knowledgeable about their products and offering suggestions and prompt when getting the finished product completed on time. A few years ago, we needed a custom boat cover for our ski boat. We called several companies for quotes and decided to try Overboard Designs. Cibele asked questions about our needs and made a suggestion about paying a little extra for better quality material. We are so glad we did and we are very happy with the result! The quality, workmanship and look of our new cover is amazing! We recently were in need of new flooring and bimini top for our pontoon. Of course, we called Cibele. We set up an appointment to view the materials and color choices, they had a quote ready for us immediately, they started the work sooner than expected and we had the boat back quickly and when they had promised. We love the look of our brand new floor and bimini top! Next we are planning to redo the upholstery :-) The work completed by Overboard Designs is always the highest of quality and looks better than expected. You can shop around for prices, but you can't shop for quality. We will only use Overboard Designs for our boats and we will continue to refer them to family and friends. read more

I have used the Overboard Designs team (Cibele, Pamela and Gisela) twice now for very special boats and have received truly outstanding work. They are meticulous and have the latest, chic materials for their work. read more

We used Overboard Designs to rebuild our entire seat base and reupholster exterior seats on our cabin cruiser. After completion they reinstalled seat base and seats using our old broken and rusted hardware. The two hatch doors on rebuilt wooden seat base do not latch or stay closed due to them reusing the original broken hardware. They also installed the hatch door trim incorrectly and upside down on one hatch door. We immediately contacted them with our concerns by phone, email, text message and in person. They did a complete rebuild of entire wooden seat base and reupholstered both base and seats. The job should have included new hatch door hardware such as hinges and latches. Their first response they stated it was not written or included on their quote, nor did they ask. Their second response was they were unable to source new hardware to match the new holes they made in our seat base by reusing our broken and rusted hardware. We should not have to ask for those specific items to be replaced. If you hired someone to remodel your kitchen or bathroom to include new cabinets would you want them to reuse the broken and rusted hardware off the old cabinets. I do not think anyone would and would expect the new cabinets to come with new hinges and latches. They did come out to correct and flip the hatch door trim. We are still waiting on them to resolve the hatch door issues that still do not latch or close. Our first sign we should have gone elsewhere is when Ciebele told us our wooden seat base was not rotten and we knew it was. When they removed the seats, the rotten wooden seat base completely fell apart. When we addressed Jennifer with our concerns and requested a resolution she became very rude and disrespectful. Ciebele tried to play if off as if these issues were our mistake. Maybe in the past they took pride in their work and customers, but that is no longer true. For the above stated reasons, I do not recommend this company. read more

We had our 2004 Bass Boat upgraded with new carpet and upholstery and it almost looks like a new boat. Very happy with service and workmanship. Will definitely recommend OD to anyone. read more

The work that was done on my boat was quality work but my boat was damaged during the process. I have been trying for 5 months to get them (Cibele or Pamela) to do anything toward fixing the damage. All of my attempts to have Overboard Designs take action towards repairing their damage have failed. read more

They did a phenomenal job on covering our treatment tables! Everyone thinks we bought new tables! They were patient with accommodating for our office treatment times and had everything ready when they said they would! We would not hesitate to recommend or use them again! read more

Overboard does a good job until they have your money. Then when something isn't correct or finished they put you behind everyone else. If you deal with them don't pay until you are 100% satisfied. The owner is quick to cop an attitude and want to blame everyone but her company. Do yourself a favor and use another company that cares about customer satisfaction. read more

Great job , beautiful work. Some communication issues about forms of payment (no amex) but in the end was all worked out amicably and I am very satisfied. Boat is wrapped otherwise I would have included before and after pictures , amazing craftsmanship with attention to every detail. If considering them ask for pictures of the donzi 35zr from NY. read more

Overboard has done work for several of our friends and did a great job. Even our flooring, upon completion, was Awesome! Unfortunately though, the overall experience with this company was less than great. Communication was horrible; we would ask for updates and not get them. We would ask to be made aware of when they'd be at the boat so we could be there and we weren't notified. Several pieces were ordered and/or cut wrong and had to be redone multiple times (at least 5). The side of our boat was scuffed by the flooring pieces that they dragged into the boat. The adhesive from pieces that were laid incorrectly and then pulled up was not cleaned up. It was like our floor was a puzzle that someone started and then didn't work on for a few weeks...And this lasted about 9 months! When I finally was able to get in touch with Cibele to express my frustration with the lack of communication, I was told that I was not her only customer, which is all well and good, but when you KNOW that a customer is having so many problems, one would think that you would like to keep their job on your radar. The final project is now complete, and less than 6 months later there are pieces that are already shrinking and pulling away from the adhesive. Parts of this may not be 100% the responsibility of Overboard, but if you are doing a job I would think that you would take responsibility to make sure it's done right. Unfortunately that was not our experience with this company, and we will not recommend them to anyone. read more
