Point Breeze? More like Point Sleaze:…read more If you're considering Point Breeze in Saratoga, NY, I would strongly suggest looking elsewhere. We ordered a new Bennington L22 in August 2024 with an October delivery date. That date came and went. In January 2025, we were contacted to confirm details--only to find out the boat had "never even been ordered". We were then promised April delivery. That was also missed. What makes this even more concerning is that Bennington later confirmed our original boat had actually been delivered to Point Breeze in late September 2024--directly contradicting what we were told. I'm not sure if this was due to dishonesty, incompetency, or both. When the boat finally arrived in mid-May, things only got worse. During the first test run, water was draining out of both pontoons. A brand-new boat--with cracked welds. Point Breeze claimed the issue was handled, saying repairs were approved by Bennington and replacement pontoons were on the way. That turned out to be false. Bennington had no knowledge of the issue, had not approved repairs, and had not sent any replacements. Nor would they warranty any of the work by Point Breeze. Even after repairs, the boat continued taking on water and listing. We ended up going elsewhere and paying for a quality repair, just to make it usable. Between the missed order, repeated delays, misinformation, and delivering a defective boat, this was easily the worst purchasing experience we've had. The owner, Tom Caringi, lied to us with ease. Bennington was no help either. My advice, don't purchase so much as a life vest at Point Breeze, and for a pontoon, buy a Manitou.

Just purchased my new outboard motor from Tom, and I was very pleased with the service I received…read more Tom was very helpful in finding what I was looking for and his price was a lot less than other dealers in the area and beyond. When I went to pick up the motor I brought my boat, and I'm glad I did because it needed to be bolted to the transom and the head mechanic made sure the job was done right. I can't remember his name but i'm pretty sure his first name started with a G. He was also very helpful with any questions I had about my new motor, so for that I'm thankful. Thank you for all you're help and the great service. I would definitely do business there again. John D.

Having someone you can fully trust with your boat gives tremendous peace of mind, and we're very grateful to have found that with Powerboat Services. Highly recommend.

We bought a Mainship 37 in Massachusetts, motored it across Long Island Sound and up the Hudson…read moreRiver over two weeks in May, 2015. We chose Coeymans Landing Marina to haul, dismantle, and load the boat for shipping to South Dakota at the end of the trip. We chose Coeymans only because a lot of other online reviews were good and they used to be a big Mainship dealer in the 1990's. We pulled up on a windy Saturday morning. Five people helped us in -- a combination of marina employees and just friendly slipholders. Owners Hedy and Carl were very, very friendly and helpful. We went over the dismantling with Eric the service yard foreman for about half an hour, and then left to fly back to SD -- and they took it from there. Eric was fantastic. Without my even asking, he texted us photos of the work literally every few hours. The props had gotten damaged on the trip and Eric took care of getting them shipped out, reconditioned and rebalanced by a service in Newburgh, and then delivered back to Coeymans just in time to get loaded on the 18-wheeler. They did a fantastic job on prepping the boat for shipping, replaced the aft air conditioning unit because the old one was shot, and loaded that boat so well that everything arrived in South Dakota in good shape after a 1,500 mile road trip -- and all for a very reasonable price. We couldn't be happier with Coeymans, we got lucky.

The facilities are very basic, with the shop/chandlery seemingly randomly stocked, and the amenities (restrooms, shower) rather grim. The docks are in bad shape and quite rickety, mostly close inshore. That said, the staff have an outstanding reputation for doing the basics of keeping a boat in shape and a boat owner happy. I have heard two different stories of the staff doing rescue-tows and refusing even to be tipped for slip-owners. The boat yard is right next to the slips and the ramp (there is no winch, note) so if you have a small boat, want to go cheap, and convenient, this seems like a good option. The river location is between locks 7 and 8, more or less halfway between Freeman's Bridge and the Rexford Bridge.

I was able to book a pontoon for 16 people for July 4th pretty last minute and it was amazing!…read more The staff was super friendly and gave us a map of where to explore.

Well the photos are very deceptive in showing the marina in younger more maintained times. There is no Mercruiser certified mechanic, although one of the owners does do some work, there is no restaurant, bathrooms are very nice, the location is near nothing but the staff easily offers to run you wherever you need to go. Ask for a slip on one of the newer docks as the old ones are treacherous with old lines on cleats, electric service on temporary pieces of wood lying in the middle of the dock. Not a good place for boaters with small children.
