I shopped at Boat Parts and More on the recommendation of a mechanic. This is a locally owned and…read moreoperated store. I needed to purchase parts for the Yamaha 100 hour maintenance on my outboards and it was good to find a reliable store that not only carried the necessary parts but also ensured they were in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. The sales person double-checked all the part numbers to ensure they were precisely what I needed. I'm guessing the staff is a husband and wife team and they both demonstrated an impressive understanding of the Yamaha maintenance requirements. They took the time to discuss the specific needs of my boat and answered all my questions. It was evident that they possessed a deep knowledge of their products and inventory. To my delight, each part fit seamlessly into place. This is a local source for genuine Yamaha parts. I needed that in order to comply with the manufacturer's warranty requirements. If you're looking for a reliable source of boat parts, I highly recommend Boat Parts and More.

Absolutely could never recommend this place. Here's your 5 star review Joe, minus 4 stars. 0 if I…read morecould. You are not a man of your word. Before doing business here, we heard several negative things about this dealership from other people. However, we believe in giving people a fair chance instead of judging them based on someone else's experience. Unfortunately, giving them that chance ended up biting us. We put down a $1,000 deposit on a boat. Lots of back & forth trying to find the perfect one. Christian & Joe said they understood. We were specifically told that our deposit would hold the boat while we completed a sea trial and had an independent inspection performed before signing the final paperwork. That gave us the confidence to move forward, knowing we had the opportunity to make sure the boat was everything it was represented to be. We went to the dealership on Thursday evening fully intending to sign. We arrived around 5:30 but because they were closing at 6:00 and we had our three children with us, we were told it was fine to come back on Saturday to finish the paperwork. In fact, Christian said that would work great for him. BUT Before leaving, the sales manager, Joe, looked us in the eye and assured us the boat would not be sold and that it would be waiting for us when we returned. Instead, on Saturday morning, we received a phone call telling us they had already sold the boat to someone else. For us, this wasn't just about losing the boat, it was about integrity. We believe a person's word means something, especially after accepting a customer's deposit, telling us it would hold the boat while we completed the agreed-upon sea trial and inspection, and then personally assuring us the boat would still be there. Everyone was friendly, welcoming, and personable while we were in the showroom. But once another opportunity to make a sale came along, it became clear to us that keeping their word wasn't a priority. We left feeling that the friendly service was more about closing a deal than standing behind the commitments they made. If they couldn't hold the boat, they should have been honest and told us that from the beginning instead of making promises they weren't willing to keep. So your deposit doesn't mean anything. Take it from us. Needless to say, we'll be taking our business elsewhere.
