The owner of this business David Eugene King took my 15 thousand dollars in 2021 made multiple promises of when my boat will be done. In March of 2023 I learned he has now moved to Mexico with my money and multiple other people's money. He also took all of the seats off of my boat and sold them leaving me an empty shell of a boat with no refurbishing done. At this point I'm not sure he winterized the motor in 2021 when he picked it up. A note to others who have lost money to Mr. King,. Do a review, contact the Kosciusco sheriff department and file a report, lastly file with the Indiana attorney general.
UPDATE 03.26.2023 Today I picked up my pontoon boat from Pontoon Restoration company. The propeller and motor were in the dirt and in a puddle. It is possible that the motor may have to be rebuilt or replaced due to it sitting in water for 2 winters. Also all of my seats are GONE! They were seats from 2005 and in fair condition with no tears. I understand that Mr King sold the seats on Facebook marketplace. I am bout how much money the customers had already paid him which in many cases was well over 50%. The new owner could not have basically done all of the refurbishment for 25% of the fee. In my case the new owner would have had to buy new seats a new cover, new railing and new vinyl for the floor but would have only received 3-4 thousand for his work, less than the materials cost. The photos show the condition of the boat on 03.26.23. Prop in dirt, all seats gone, a mess
