I own a 2008 Chaparral Sunesta 26' and was facing a major problem -- many of my boat's electronics…read moreand components had stopped working. I contacted my dealer, and they told me most of the parts were discontinued and there was nothing they could do. I was seriously considering selling the boat and buying a new one. Instead, I decided to explore retrofitting the boat with modern digital systems. After some research, I found Gearhead Marine. From the very first conversation, I knew I had found the right shop. Courtney was fantastic. He clearly explained all my options and confidently told me, "When I'm done, you're going to have a brand-new boat." He was absolutely right! He completely overhauled my electrical and electronic systems, retrofitted everything to modern digital standards, and even took care of several issues on my trailer that I hadn't mentioned. He performed two separate sea trials to make sure every system was working perfectly before calling the job done. I couldn't be happier with the results. The boat now runs and handles better than it did when it was new. Courtney's expertise, attention to detail, and professionalism are outstanding. I will never let another boat mechanic touch my boat again. If you have an older boat or new one for that matter, that needs work, do yourself a favor and take it to Gearhead Marine. You won't regret it!

After talking for a few minutes with Brian I knew this guy and his crew knew everything about my Malibu Wake setter 23LSV I have had several problems with my power wedge eventually the Lenco control box was destroyed. Lenco in their brilliant wisdom discontinued producing them and there is no way to fix it with a different box. That's where Brian comes in. He told me he had done this bypass for another customer. I told him your hired and I pulled my boat over 300 miles to have them fix it. While I was there they found one of my rams had leaked water into it through the seal. This is number 3 for me. WTH. He luckily had one and replaced it along with installing the switch bypass for the power wedge. The price was very reasonable. This guy KNOWS HIS STUFF. I cannot say it enough. If you don't bring your Malibu here you are a fool. Just Awesome!!!!! Thank you Brian and your staff. Cannot wait to have you service my boat again.

As we embarked on the Duffy boat, we were given a map of the waterway and instructions how to operate the boat and turn on the bluetooth for music. The boat looked clean and well maintained. There was a large table and cushioned seating all around the table. We could also go to the aft of the boat which had two small seats. We ordered a charcuterie box which was already on the boat upon our arrival. Very pleasant experience from start to finish.

Not only that, our drop off was between 9-10am, We reached there 9:30 after leaving a msg when we will arrive, the guy showed up @ 10:45am. Pick up and drop off was shady behind someone else's house and neighbors told us that they always gave their address for some reason. They was very unhappy with Mike and his crew too. Here's a list of things that were wrong:- - Left side trailer tail light not working. - Bent trailer & hitch - Front Right Flat RZR tire - Back left bald & plugged tire. - Ordered & paid for RZR Turbo but got RZR 1000. - Check engine light on all the time. - Unsafe for dunes or anywhere, got stuck on small dune, no power. - Was delivered dirty. - Left trailer low tire pressure. - Loose cables, wiring, trim. - Insufficient strength ties down for RZR. - Dirty helmets, broken & cracked goggles. No Customer service. Pure SCAM. DO NOT USE THEM. Wont pick up my calls.

I bought my boat from Inland Boat Center in March 2024 through Taylor and Mr. Hellman. At the time…read moreof sale, the experience was excellent--very responsive, very friendly, and full of assurances that made me feel confident doing business there. I purchased a 2021 Manitou Aurora for $32,000, which I still own and have only put about 30 hours on. A major part of that conversation was a trailer they agreed to sell me for $2,800 out the door. I was told it only needed brakes and that I would get a call when it was ready. I followed up several times and kept hearing delays, including that the wrong brakes had been installed and they needed more time. Eventually the communication stopped completely. Since then, no one has followed through, no one has updated me, and now the original agreement is treated as if it never happened. Instead, the only option presented is a new trailer for around $7,000. I also recently asked what they would offer if they bought the boat back. After paying $32,000 and barely using it, I was offered $16,000. Even getting that answer took repeated effort because emails and calls were ignored until I physically walked into the showroom. Service has been equally disappointing. When I bought the boat, I was specifically told that because I am a Canyon Lake customer they would arrange pickup and delivery for service. When I called recently, I was told there is now a $200 transportation charge and that I would need to take it up with Taylor. I texted Taylor directly again and still received no response. I was also quoted around $1,000 for a basic oil change and impeller replacement, while other boat service centers quoted substantially less for the same work. I have been in sales for over 20 years, and one thing I understand clearly is that customer service after the sale matters more than the sale itself. What stands out most here is how dramatically the customer experience changed once the transaction was complete. Before the purchase, communication was immediate. After the purchase, promises became difficult to verify, follow-up became almost nonexistent, and basic customer service became a struggle. For anyone considering buying here: document everything, get every commitment in writing, and do not rely on verbal promises alone. Based on how this has been handled, I would not purchase from Inland Boat Center again, and I would not recommend that friends, family, or anyone I know buy or service a boat there.

Bought 1 gaff, 2 Sabiki Rig Dehookers and one 8' "Y" pole from him. The Y pole cut two Bluefins off…read morebefore we figured out that the stainless-steel Y had a design flaw that would literally cut through your line if it was at a greater degree than 45. To be crystal clear, the tool you buy from this guy so your line does not get cut off by your props, cuts your line off. When I called him on this, he acknowledged the problem (he already knew, but apparently was selling them as-is anyway); also, really weird, but the second thing out of his mouth was "oh, I have cancer". I don't know why he told me that, but I told him that his condition was more important than my issue with his product, so I asked him to please call me back when he had a replacement; that call never came. Over the next 7-months I called this guy and each time I was able to reach him, he started right off with "oh, I have cancer, and your replacement Y is here somewhere. Said he would ship it to me numerous times... never happened. I finally said I would drive the distance to go to him to exchange it, but then he said, "wait until I dig it out for my warehouse and I'll call you"... never happened. Fast forward to the 2024 Bart Hall Show, and there he was, a booth choking full of product with one Y that still had the issue. I reintroduced myself and asked him about the Y, and very first thing out of his mouth was, "I have cancer". Then he said he has it leaning up against a wall in his shop. So I said great, I will be back at this show tomorrow as well so I can get it from you then, right? Then he became confrontational and told me to "don't do this and to walk away". People, I don't know if this guy has cancer or not (his fat a** certainly doesn't look like it) but if he's lying, what an insult to all who are suffering today with cancer. Apparently, he's not so sick that he's capable of producing product and manning a booth for a 4-day sportfishing event. Finally, if you choose to purchase from "Mr. I-have-cancer, so that grants me authorization to treat customers with warranty issues like shi*" ...handle his long pole products like you're handling nitroglycerin as the lacquer chips off if the pole taps a boat rail exposing the raw bamboo that then absorbs water ruining it. Highly recommend that you don't buy from this jackas* and purchase much superior products like the Promar and Cuda products that I bought to replace his. These will last me for the rest of my life... unless of course, I have cancer.

There was nothing rushed, nothing scripted, and they got the job done. They appear to provide honest work and definitely made sure I left with my problem solved. I appreciate that they are a long-standing family business. You can feel it in the way they operate. They show pride in what they do, they stand behind their work, and they treat people the right way. Do not let any negative reviews distract you. They truly do not reflect the real experience this family provides. My experience was superb, helpful, and genuine. I am certain that they do not receive the recognition that they deserve but at least this review - from the heart - can communicate to future customers that you really are in good hands when you come to this business for whatever you need.
