    I had a very bad experience at this marina. My son thought this was the public ramp, and put his…read moreboat in there. He left his car parked, with the trailer attached, on the street next to the ramp. There are no signs anywhere indicating this is a private area. However, after we returned a few hours later, the trailer was gone. A man named Alan, or Allen, informed my 19 year old son that he had taken the trailer and moved it to a lot down the road. When I came to talk to Allen, he was quite aggressive with me and said it was private and we weren't allowed to park there, so he had taken the trailer and moved it to a lot down the road. I pointed out that we had no idea that it was private, and that I thought it was inappropriate for him to unhook our boat trailer and move it. He claimed he had the right to do it and said it was in a lot down the road. I drove to all the nearby lots I could find, not knowing this area at all, and in none of them could I find the trailer. Meanwhile, our boat was still in the water, and we could not get it out. I came back and told him I could not find it, he again gave me very vague directions, in a rude tone, and then proceeded to go out on a boat. My son then drove to where Alan said the boat trailer was and he also could not find it. At this point I called the New Durham Police department, because Alan had left, we had no idea where the trailer was, and we needed to get the boat out of the water. A good hour had gone by at this point. The New Durham police officer arrived shortly thereafter, and was kind and professional. He said he had found our trailer, and knew where it was. I asked why it was ok for Alan to move our trailer from our vehicle and he said "he is running a business here". I said I understood that, but we had no idea it was private property and that there were no signs anywhere indicating it was a place we couldn't park. He said they didn't need to have signs, and that maybe there should be signs to tell you you can in fact use it, and if there arent' you shouldn't. This sort of does not sound like my understanding of how the world typically works. The officer was kind enough to drive to where the trailer was, and we followed, so we eventually got it back. The officer said that Alan can indeed unhook our trailer and move it by law. But this whole situation could have been avoided if Alan (or Allen) had made some different choices. He could have done any of the following things. He could have waited until we came back and simply told us that this was private, and we would have apologized and left. He could have signs up indicating that you can't park here or your trailer will be towed an we wouldn't have parked here. He could have had us ticketed, which isn't a nice thing to do, but would have been totally fair. Instead, he chose to remove the trailer from our car and take it and park it somewhere we couldn't easily find it, given we had never been there before. It struck me as extremely petty and passive aggressive, and as we are visitors from out of town, who clearly had no idea what was going on here, it seemed really unnecessary. We are happy to follow the rules as we understand them. We made a mistake, which was not at all obvious to us given the lack of signage. And we were treated with rudeness. Indeed, I thought the trailer had been stolen. If I had come back and he was taking it, there could have easily been a confrontation that might have ended badly. Alan's actions were unnecessarily provocative, passive-aggressive, and rude. He could have just had a conversation, instead he chose this path. I hope in the future, he can make different choices. Effectively stealing a boat trailer from the back of a car and moving it to another location is really not ok.

    These guys are awesome! I have always had great experiences with this business. Alan is always a…read moregreat help.

    A very belated review, as we rented in Sept 2025. We had trouble out on the water and the crew was…read morevery timely and patient coming out to tow us in. Overall, they were patient, explained the boat well, and were really flexible with our requests. The bowrider was a good model of boat for my wife and I. All good with our two-time rental at Goodhue..

    I do not recommend Goodhue Boat Company…read more After a couple of good days enjoying the lakes with our family we decided to take a cruise around Frye island to try to catch a famous Sebago sunset. About 3/4 of the way around the island the boat just died. I've been around boats all of my life so I took 45 minutes trying to diagnose the problem. When we couldn't figure it out we called Goodhue knowing it was after hours. We then called several emergency services for them all to go to voicemail. 911 got us tow Sebago after 3 hours to rescue us for a $700 tow. We sat through a thunderstorm, 30 mph winds and an anchor which did not hold the boat. Luckily enough I was able to swim close enough to a mooring and latch on before ending up on the rocks. The next morning I called Goodhue just before they opened and explained what happened. They sent someone out 2 hours later who determined the boat ran out of gas. I watched that gas gauge fall from 100% every single decimal to its final reading of 72.8%. This gave me every indication that the gas gauge was working correctly. I said to my family several times over 2 days that "this boat either has a gigantic gas tank or is extremely efficient". I honestly could not believe that the boat had run out of gas. Goodhue does not want to take responsibility for their faulty equipment causing a very dangerous and life threatening situation. They claim to have explained the gas gauge doesn't work, but a teenager mumbling during a safety briefing that the gas gauge might not work isn't properly notifying a customer of faulty equipment. Expectations of something so vital should be plastered on the dash or handed on a piece of paper to the renter. While this is the second time we have rented from Goodhue, the first time didn't go well either. We had to be rescued the first time after the battery died while we stopped for lunch. We were told that we needed to shut the battery disconnect off overnight, but we did not expect the battery to die with all accessories off in less than 2 hours. I have been boating my entire life. I've spent 1-2 weeks on long lake/Sebago for over 40 years. I also live a couple miles from the ocean. I've owned 4 boats myself and my family owned multiple boats as I was growing up. I've never been stranded outside of renting from Goodhue. I had good experiences renting multiple times each from Long Beach marina and kettle cove marina. Goodhue rents faulty equipment and does not take responsibility for it. I highly recommend going to a reliable marina.
