Garrett's Marina is top notch; if you want to be treated like you are part of a family than come to…read moreGarrett's for your boating needs. Here's some background on our experience. My wife and I bought a boat from Louis and Sonia in spring 2019 and we are very thankful that we did. When we decided that we wanted to buy a boat, one of our requirements was to buy a boat from someone that we could trust and someone that would continue to be there for us after we bought a boat. Obviously buying the right type of boat was the most important, but since we are first time boaters this was important to us. One day my family decided that we check out key west boats at Garrett's. Up until this point we had been looking at every dealership in the area and wanted a center console boat, narrowed it down to a few models. We spent a entire day at the marina looking at boats, did a sea trial, and ended up buying a key west center console. During the entire sales process, Louis was a straight shooter. He went over everything about our boat, what we need and don't need and what not to waste our money on. The boat buying process was simple and Louis and Sonia took care of us during the entire process. The day we picked up our boat we did a sea trial and Louis went over everything about the boat. I felt comfortable and later that day we drove our boat out of the marina and continue to love our key west! I still call and email Louis all the time with questions and he promptly returns my phone calls, even after hours!!!! Highly recommend that you come to Garrett's for the following: buying boats, boat service needs, and boat storage. If you want to be treated like family than come to Garrett's.

My experience with Southeastern Marine Southeastern Marine in Richmond, VA, and Sales Manager…read moreMickey Brown has been highly disappointing and unprofessional. I placed a custom boat order and left a deposit, only to discover upon delivery that Mickey Brown had ordered the incorrect floor and hull colors. Instead of taking responsibility for the error, he pressured me to pay full price for the incorrect boat. Furthermore, the custom trailer arrived damaged during transport. Because Mickey Brown failed to unwrap the boat and inspect it in a timely manner, we missed the window to send it back to the manufacturer. His proposed resolution was to force me to take a mere \(\$500\) discount on the damaged trailer while demanding I accept the entirely incorrect boat. To make matters worse, throughout the negotiation process, Mickey Brown made highly inappropriate and offensive remarks regarding race and gender. Buyers, beware. Custom orders require meticulous attention to detail and accountability, neither of which you will receive here. I strongly urge potential customers to take their business to a reputable dealer who respects their clientele and properly manages their inventory.

I found and bought the motor I wanted at a different dealer. When I approached Mr Jett with a question about my motor he basically told me to take it back where I bought it and he would not honor the manufacturers warranty. He now stated he can get the engines and has them on order. The other dealer had a ware house full of these engines and had no problem getting them. So it appears Mr Jett is pushing Yamaha's competitor if he doesn't want to sell them he should drop the line.

For brevity, I'll simply provide a list of what I know about Rob: Tangibles: - Great mechanic - Knows boats - power, performance, history of quirks/tendencies - Dependable - what he commits to, he delivers Intangibles: - Memory (beyond boats) is uncanny - years ago I stopped saying, "you work on a lot of boats so I wouldn't expect you to remember..." I stopped because he remembers your name, boat and what he has done to it. - Knows the Lake - Very careful/mindful of your boat while it's in his care - ex: he takes off his shoes when in your boat. Who does that? - Honest/trustworthy - I don't know if it's instinctual or purposeful, but he gets it. The only way to be successful for as long as he has; ya gotta be honest & trustworthy.

Rob obviously has a heart for helping people, and he's wonderful to work with. There have been multiple occasions where our boat had a problem and Rob solved it quickly, easily, and gave us multiple options to stay within our means. Some friends on another lake always joke that BOAT stands for "Break Out Another Thousand", but here at Lake Anna we get to say, "Bring On Another Thing to Rob and get it done RIGHT!"
