I found Tim's via South Texas Trader. I dropped the boat off on a Friday and he had it fixed by…read moreSaturday afternoon, even sent me a video of it running. Great, I told him I would pick it up on Monday. He was upset about that and said he needed his money due to out of pocket expenses. I brought him the money on Sunday evening and he had the boat in his yard waiting. I paid him the money,(He asked for money up front for parts, $140, which I did) owed, the balance was $440. Total of $580. His add states hourly labor at $70 and gurantees his work or labor is free. He charged me $85 and hour, but, I didn't say anything, just glad to get my boat fixed. I was not able to put the boat in the water due to work until the following weekend, it wouldn't crank...doing same thing it was doing before I brought it to Tim. I called him and no reply. I texted him and he said he was at hospital, personal stuff. He texted me the video that he sent initially of my boat running and said he would get back to me. I waited a couple of days and tried calling him, no answer, so I texted him again. He sent me a very unprofessional text back about him being busy and having more to do than mess with a boat he had already fixed. Needless to say with all of the issues, communications, money spent and boat not running, his attitude about it, like he was the victim and I was trying to get over on him when all I wanted was my boat fixed, I would highly reccommend that you don't waste your money here. He "guarantees" his work....he never even offered to look at the boat after he "fixed" it and things got ugly with the back and forth about the boat. If there was a way to rate "zero stars" that would be my rating. I am out $580 and had to take the boat to a real mechanic that has a shop, a sign and didn't ask for money up front. Beware of "shade tree" mechanics. Live and learn, posting this so no one else makes the same mistake.

I went in 3 separate times. My friends went in on numerous occasions. All CASH buyers. They got zero on sales service . One friend said I tried and they would not sell me a boat and I had cash in hand. No one would wait on him. I emailed pics of a possible trade like they ask. I even ask them to bring a new Boat down that "yes" it was what I wanted. NOTHING . As A business owner myself , I wonder how do you stay in business like this. Yes a grave reflection toward the owners. Well guys you have lost my business as well as my friends. I will help spread the word that you don't want to sell boats any longer. I sent you customer after customer through the years. What a disappointment from a Local Business.

I consigned my used boat with this business and signed a contract with them to do so. The boat…read moreremained on their lot, for sale, for over one year. I left the boat with them for as long as it was necessary to sell it. Under the consignment contract, I expected to receive my settlement roughly 20 days after the sale, since I did not have negative equity. At the business's request, I authorized my bank to work directly with them to complete the transaction. After the sale, the business delayed my settlement for several months. I was told that payment would not be issued until the title was physically received from my bank, but I did not see that requirement in their consignment contract. As a seller I was put in a precarious position of risk for months. When I ultimately received the final settlement, I was shocked to discover that I was additionally charged for the buyer's TT&L fees. As a Texan I've never seen a case where the seller pays TT&L. I've never worked with a dealership of any kind that thought this to be proper either. When I raised the issue and requested reimbursement for the TT&L charges, the owner was quick to point out that I "wasn't charged storage fees," although storage fees were not listed as an option anywhere on my settlement statement and had never been brought up before. He also highlighted that the business has been charging TT&L to the consignment sellers for many years. After two visits, I received a partial refund, but I still ended up $500 short of full reimbursement because he deemed it appropriate to keep the other half. Does this business eat the TT&L for its new boat buyers?

You don't get the typical slimy snake oil boat dealership experience up here like you do at 85% of the other boat dealers in the Beaumont/southeast Texas area. It's so nice to be actually treated like a person vs a boat sale!!!!!!!!!!! Also... Their mechanic is top notch! Compared to most dealers in the area they're fast on service and really good on price for service work. Anytime I've ever needed a part they either had it in stock or could get it in a timely manner. I'll definitely be buying another boat from them when the time comes. Definitely a 5 star business!
