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.

My husband and I went into Irwin at Alton Bay to buy 2 Jet Skis. We were led to the back by a very…read morenice woman only to face the most arrogant, dismissive and unfriendly salesman's we have ever met. (Doug) He did not introduce himself, nor did he say hello. I'm not sure he even looked up to acknowledge us. In showing us the jet skis, he proceeded to abruptly rush ahead of us, letting the door shut in our faces. The entire experience was a nightmare. We returned a few hours later, hoping we had just caught him on a bad day. Not only had he not remembered meeting with us, he refused to answer our questions in regards to certain aspects of the jet skis; ultimately creating a more uncomfortable environment. Unfortunately, we will never go into Irwin's again.

I have done business at this place for a few years. Ernie Jr. who was running the place seemed to…read moredo a good job and Heather who worked the counter was always excellent. This year the place has changed drastically. I was warned by a friend and boy was he right. When I arrived at the place I was told that Ernie Jr. and Heather had retired(I think not).Last fall when dropped off my boat Heather calculated my bill and I paid it in full as I did every year. This year when I returned I was told I had a $100. balance. I then noticed they had raised the shrink wrap price $100. After a brief dispute with Ernie Sr. who has a miserable personality and obviously doesn't want to be there I decided it wasn't worth the aggravation and going forward I would bring my business elsewhere. When I took the shrink wrap off the boat , which they had put in my yard for the winter, to clean it I found a large hole in the roof.I called Ernie Sr. and told him and he said it must have happened in my yard. He sent a employee down and I showed him. He said he did most of the work on the boat and he didn't know how it happened but he would tell Ernie Sr. I told him that I didn't expect a new roof and we agreed a patch should be a pretty easy fix. I even gave him the old shrink wrap which had no holes in it to show there were no holes in it About a half hour later I got a phone call from Ernie Sr. saying they found a hole in the shrink wrap and it must have happened in my yard . I told him when the shrink wrap left my yard there was no holes in it. He asked me if I was accusing him of putting a hole in the shrink wrap. I told him maybe not him but someone at Gillan. He started yelling at me and I told him he would not see me again and he said that was a good thing. I have heard that the place is up for sale and that is a good thing because with his attitude the place will never last. It's really too bad because when his son was running the place it was a good place to do business.

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.

Weather reports are only 10 days out, so you get totally screwed if it rains. Even if there's lightning, this company will not let you move your reservation. I could understand if you canceled or moved and they were left with an unreserved boat that could have been reserved by someone else, but boats will not rent in the rain, so they are just using the weather as a means to screw you and profit in the mean time. Use Winnie Marine instead. They cost a bit more, but they'll let you cancel your reservation on the day of if it's raining. No contest in terms of service.

I search the web for dock space and Parker Maine came up. Buy a boat and get dock space, perfect. I made an appointment and went to look at a boat. The boat they had was just right for us. A slightly larger engine would be nice but the $3000 savings was good so we went forward with the purchase. Everyone was so nice and explained everything to us. It was a great purchase experience. Within a week, they had their money and we had a boat in the water. Each time we went to use the boat someone would check on us to see how everything was going and to see if we had questions. So glad that we found Parker Marine and we can't wait for the spring so we can have our boat placed back in the water.
