Chris's Marine

I recently needed a boat for a property I bought. The pandemic has made a huge surge in demand for everything from toilet paper and bikes to boats. Seeing how we were are not big on can goods, we are set on TP and I moved on to boats. Many of the manufacturers are very very backordered and waiting for engines. Chris Marine and Haynie boats (owned by one in the same) both are Texas home town legends are ready to go. RTG in the fact that they have very loyal customers that know if you want to trade their boat for a new one there is only one market place: Chris Marine. Haynie Boats are all business. They are small batch production and are made to ride out a storm if you and your family find yourself in one. Chandler my salesperson was awesome. Actually everyone in the store was highly motivated to take care of me. The guy at the counter , the finance guy Scott and the GM Randy are hard working people that always have a smile. The thing is nobody tried to sell me on anything. They asked what I wanted and did the best to accommodate what I asked for. The product sells itself. Nobody tried to slam me into products like a car dealership. Chandler from day one was like let's take the boat to the water and we can answer every concern or question. You put all these people together each one being an expert in the business and you have a incredible experience. If you like to deal with a Texas business that works to make you a customer for life, this is it. JD

Cannot thank Keith at Chris's marine enough for all the help on Thursday. We had a trolling motor die while out fishing the bay and then the big motor would not crank. Made it back to shore and pulled up to Chris's marine thinking our fishing was over for the week. Keith came out and went through the boat, checked everything out, diagnosed and got us up and running again after a new battery and starter evaluation. We were able to get back on the water and finish fishing until sunset. Keith totally went way above and beyond for us and I cannot thank him enough! Keith "saved the day!"

If you have a bay boat or a salt water boat, do yourself a favor and get it serviced or repaired at Chris' Marine.Don't waste your time and money at trying to have repairs done on your boat by guys near the house that are landlocked and who wouldn't know a power pole from a bilge pump. The guys here work on more seagoing boats in a week than those other guys see all year long. They can diagnose problems quicker and can get you back on the water sooner than those clowns ever will. If you have a salt water boat, have the crew at Chris' take care of her - you'll never go back!

I didn't even realize I checked in here... anyway.That had all the stuff we needed that we forgot back in Austin. So good for that.

These guys are great! I was down for a club tournament this weekend and on Friday discovered I had electrical issues with my console as well is a bad mooring light. Chris's got right on it and fixed the problems with minimal hassles or charges. They could have taken advantage of me and my situation, but instead they treated me right. Thanks!

What a fantastic place and people. Have done business with other marine dealers and repair shops over the years but none that took care of me as well. They make you feel like you are their only customer even though they are so busy they can't see straight. If you need any boat repair, don't waste your time and money elsewhere. Give them a try you will never go elsewhere!!!Kelly

Best place for all your boating needs y'all go check them out they are located in Aransas pass just look for the Chris's marine sign

Just had an excellent experience at Chris's Marine. I was out fishing this morning and the spike on my power pole cracked. I didn't purchase my boat from them. I called the service department and told them what had happened. They suggested I come to their parts department which I did. And they gave me a new one no question asked. It's nice to find a company these days that provides excellent service. Thank you so much.

These guys know everything from power poles, lights, stereos, trailers, and repairs. I have used them for everything and can say they are the only people that will ever work on my stuff.

I took my 60 hp Yamaha in because it was running a little rough and was told they needed to rebuild carburetors. When I picked it up I took it out and it still wasn't running right. So I took it back to them and they charged me to "fix" the carburetors again. They claimed it was bad fuel in the tank (that they told me they checked and fixed the first time). I took it out again and it still wasn't running properly. After being charged twice for "rebuilt" carburetors, I took it to another marine repair shop and they showed me that my carburetors had NEVER been rebuilt or cleaned. they had never even removed the gaskets. With such poor service and lying (or maybe non-trained) repair technicians I would NEVER recommend Chris Marine for anything.
