I broke the skag off my mercury 150. They had me drop it off in the morning. I received a Curtsey call from Jenn that they were painting the skag and start driving in and it will be done before you get there. I left my house and rolled in to my boat ready for hookup. They charged a good price and I was more than satisfied with the service received from beginning to end. I recommend these guys to anyone that runs into a rock like I did.

If you are looking for a boat mechanic you cannot go wrong with Barry. I've been taking my boats to…read morehim for years. I'm on my third boat (fiberglass with I/O, fishing boat with outboard, and now a pontoon with an outboard) and he's done great work to all of them. He has given me great advice and guidance on buying and selling my boats too. I have not had a problem yet that he couldn't diagnose and fix right away. He's quick to respond (I sent him a frantic email at 10:30pm one night from vacation and he was able to diagnose the problem within an hour). What other mechanic would provide that kind of service? His prices are fair and he does not charge you for things you don't need. He is not out there to gauge people for a one-time payday. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a mechanic. Even if you already have one, give him a try. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

Barry's Marine is a gem. Had a stainless steel prop, fish finder/sonar and an engine tune up all…read moredone by Barry. Barry's price came in lower than what the stealership wanted for the steel prop ALONE not to mention all the other work he did. The work is done well, on time, and you can tell he takes pride in his work. He told me that due to the curvature of my dash that a mount would be difficult to place where I wanted it but he was able to make it work and it looks great! How many places can you say that about? Recently I had a skeg break off that was improperly (no pun intended) welded on. He recommended Mike's prop shop. Due to the poor craftsmanship that was done previously (by a previous owner, not me) they were unable to properly fix the skeg without potential damage to the lower unit. Barry did everything in his power to try to get the skeg fixed and even after I had already come to terms with needing a new lower unit, he still had one more weld guy he wanted to try. The other welder confirmed it was not salvageable so I got a new aftermarket lower unit by Barry for less than 1/3 of the price of a stealership. Each time Barry has touched my boat the performance is better than it was before, and noticeably so. My friend has a newer boat (by about 10 years) than I do and he says mine is quieter and works better than his. Barry is my go to for anything I need done with my boat and in the short time I've owned my boat I wouldn't let anyone else touch it. Thanks for being honest and a good business person. Hard to come by these days.

My Family and I have been storing our boats here for over 10 years. Dave (The Owner) is the man…read more Truly salt of the earth kinda guy. His pricing is affordable and his location is great for all the lakes that are within that area of central Wisconsin and a little bit north. He is super laid back, just give him a phone call a day or two prior and he will have your boat pulled out and ready to just latch up and go. Bottom line is I would recommend storing your boat here over anywhere else in central Wisconsin.

Horrible experience with their service and owner. I went to have a boat warranty transferred and a…read morefew other minor things. They told me it would take 2 hours to do and I would be out of there by noon. I drove from 3 hours away. Left my house at 5 in the morning. Got there took the cover off my boat and unhooked it. When I came back around noon they said it would still be a little bit. After sitting in my truck for another couple hours I went in to ask about it. Kept getting the run around. I was finally able to leave at 515 when they closed. They brought my boat out and didn't even clean the algae and scum off of it after pulling it out of the water. Then I look down the side of the boat and a huge scuff mark from hitting up against the dock. So the owner cleaned that rub mark off about 6 ft long. Then they locked up the doors and left didn't even offer to help me put my cover back on the boat. When putting the cover back on I realized why. There was grease all over my seadeck on the back platform. Then when I got inside the boat there was a chip out of my floor gel coat and random cuts in the main piece of seadeck. Also grease from dirty mechanic shoes inside the boat and the battery box covers were left off as well. I took the boat in on sept 11th 2025 and this review I'm finally leaving on Nov 7th 2025. After going back and forth with numerous phone calls that were never returned and text messages left unanswered. I was originally apologized too from the owner and he said he would get it all taken care of for me now the last message he sent me stated there was no way his mechanics caused the damage to my boat and when I responded I never got a response from him. I just simply wanted the damage to be fixed but now I guess I will be more money out of pocket to fix the damage caused by the neglect to my boat by their service team. I just purchased the boat and it had 190 hours on it and was still in like new condition. 2022 Mastercraft nxt24. I have never been ran around so much by a small business owner. He blames it on loosing his service manager. Just nothing but excuses from him. I have gave him more than enough time to remedy this situation and have gotten no where with it. Im honestly surprised my warranty got transferred through ilmor and mastercraft. I made sure to call and verify those things. Also you think that when I called to setup the appt and told him I was 3 hours away and that he was the closest mastercraft dealer to me that he would have looked up any recalls or warranty issues with my boat so we could get those taken care of while I was there also. I learned when I was there that my surf system tab sensors have a replacement for them. They didn't have them in stock so I couldn't get the work done while the boat was there. Now I have to find a different dealership to take the boat to and get this issue resolved. Nothing but bad business. I'm assuming he won't be around very much longer with how he conducts himself. I'm uploading photos and screen shots of messages as well to this review for proof. So disappointed....

It was an after market hose kit so was not the best quality I guess. On this boat there is a female connector on both ends of the gas line and was hard to find one that fit. The technicians at Don's took the time to find the right one and modify it to fit my setup. Most of the negative comments for Don's are at least five years old so I would say to disregard them. The staff here were professional and friendly. The whole store is well stocked with everything you might need for your boat and has many OME products rather than the off market brands you get online. This is October so the mad rush is on to get boats winterized so make sure you communicate with them what you want on your service request.

Just purchased a new Bennington Pontoon from Quam's Motorsports in Stoughton, Wisconsin. This is a…read morefamily owned dealership that delivered an awesome purchase experience. We're new to boating and they made it as smooth as could be. John Quam was there from the beginning and has been there even after the purchase. He personally delivered our boat to Lake Waubesa on his own truck, spent an hour on the lake, showing us all the ins and outs of our new boat. Even though we had ordered our new boat at the busiest possible time, John went out of his way to get us our boat ready for the big Memorial Day weekend. He kept me in the loop, even sending me an email (3.5 hours after they closed) to let me know that they had just completed getting the boat prep'd and it would be ready for delivery the following day! We were thrilled to be able to enjoy our boat for the weekend. After driving our boat, we started getting a warning alarm on our motor. John sent one of his techs right to our dock to diagnose the problem. With no luck, John personally came and picked up our boat and took it to the shop. Turned out to just be weeds in the water intake. After fixing it and a few other minor issues, he personally delivered the boat after they closed. Now that's service! I can't provide a more positive recommendation for anyone looking to buy a new or new to them boat. You just don't find this kind of service these days and when you do, you want to tell people!

The staff made arrangements to meet us before normal hours on a Saturday in order to get us out on the water in the boat before signing papers. However, there was a hiccup with the battery on that morning. The guys put in a new battery that morning and it started right up. To make a long story short, switching the battery was not the solution. We stalled on the water twice after putting the boat on the water at home. However, after contacting Roy Quam the first time, we took the boat back and work was done on the issue. Next week, we got the boat back, and, on the lake the next day, motor stalled again. I was really upset with the boat to say the least! I said I wanted a different boat and Roy understood completely. If we wanted another boat, they were willing to credit us the full purchase price towards another boat. However Roy stated that he was confident that they could fix whatever the wiring issue was happening on the Ranger. We agreed to try to have the issue fixed. Roy made arrangements to come pick up the boat this time so they could get working on the problem right away and we could get the boat back sooner, ( We live an hour and fifteen minutes away from Quam's.) I appreciated that and was really surprised that he did this. After working on the boat for two weeks, we think the issue is fixed but have only had the boat out once since getting it back. I am happy to say that the motor never stalled on this outing. We did have one minor glitch but Roy said to keep him posted on the issue in case it happens again. I haven't experienced customer service like this in a very long time! On a purchase like this, your heart sinks when you have problems immediately. My husband and I have been pleasantly surprised by the loyalty to their customers and their products that Quam's has shown us repeatedly. We are very glad we bought our boat at this dealership and would/will buy there again without hesitation!
