Gone Fishin Marine

We highly recommend doing business with Gone Fishin Marine!To start off we previously have done business with the sister business (next door) at their Power Sports dealer. We were pleased to do business with them before so we didn't have to second guess reaching out to them about a boat as this time came around.Last Saturday we came in and purchased a new boat to gear up for next season. We were very appreciative of Mark, Jamie, and the ENTIRE team. Everyone we dealt with were extremely friendly, welcoming, smiling, and making sure the customer (us) had a great experience.Our process was about a little over week long in buying the boat; all 100% at our pace. There was absolutely no pressure at all. We first reached out to inquire about a purchase quote on our new Sanger V215 S. Over the next few days we explored financing (exploring all our options provided by Jamie). After we had a pre-approval we coordinated with Mark for us come by and take a look at the boat we were interested in. Finally, we arrived and they had the boat prepared for us to view. Fast forward, we happily got through finance and closed a deal. Again the entire process was smooth, no pressure, and we will happily bring our boat back for future service and any other business. As we took the boat home their team was very thorough in making sure I understand how to operate the boat, answer all my questions and give me their tips, and recommendations with the boat. The coolest part was the "tank" where we went over the boat sitting backed into water.

We took my mom's boat out on the river and it stopped while on the river. We weren't sure what was wrong with her boat so she brought it here to be looked out. She found out it was a broken gas arm so we actually ran out of gas on the river. I'm so glad that was it. She was grateful they didn't charge her but she didn't like the fact there were 4 men working there but neither of them offered to help her hook her boat back up to her car (she is an older woman). Another customer walked over and helped her. She was shocked that she didn't get help from the employees.Just be mindful, being a woman. She can hook her boat up herself but to be an older woman, at least being offered the help would have been pleasant. She's still absolutely grateful for the service and to know she didn't have any damage or anything.

I drove up from So. California to purchased our used 2018 Crest Pontoon boat from Gone Fishin Marine. Very easy transition.

The work done on my boat was good. I felt that they were a little slow in completing the work that was necessary. They also required a $1200.00 parts deposit prior to ordering the necessary parts to complete the job. I personally reached out to another repair facility and asked if they required a deposit prior to starting the repair. They informed me that they had possession of my boat which would act as collateral for the parts ordered. In fairness to GFM, the insurance representative did indicate several facilities similar to GFM have started doing this.Personally, I looked at this action as overboard since insurance was covering all the costs associated with the repair less my deductible.

I deleted my earlier review. We didn't understand how a consignment worked and my words were too harsh. I apologize. They have gone above and beyond helpful to us in this process.

Another solid experience with GF Marine! Had my boat in for it's first 100 hour service and 3 year for by the impeller replacement as per manufacturer recommendation. I'd not have known about the impeller unless GF mentioned it. I did my research and sure enough it was due. GF Marine helped me understand why the impeller gets replaced and saved the old part to show me hands on what happens over time. They also had more boat in and out just in time for the holiday weekend. This company will continue to get my business for sure. Thanks GF Marine team!

This place has a lot of growing up to do. Customer service is for a lack of a better word, less than par. When you are spending the kind of money you do, you would hope the employees would replicate that. Wish the best for them in the future.

I found Gone Fishin' very helpful & knowledgeable, even without a purchase. Great customer service.

If you are buying a boat on consignment through Gone fishing marine, make sure you pay them to do an inspection of the boat($300 was what Mark told me when asked after the purchase). It wasn't offered to me verbally, but Mark at GFM told me it was offered on the paperwork I signed, I just didn't read it. I couldn't find that verbiage on any paperwork I signed. He told me it's implied on "as is" or consigned boats.I did start the boat up at GFM instructed by their worker to make sure it was running before I left.I thought that they would at least check the oil(Mark stated, "I should have checked it myself.)" They may have checked , but the oil was the dirtiest oil I had ever witnessed in my 57 years of life as I changed it when I got the boat home. Just a heads up for the next buyer. Good luck, boaters.

Looking for a dealership who doesn't "ghost" you after you have made your purchase? Look no further, Gone Fishin Marine is the best place to buy your boat. I recently purchased a boat from this dealership and had several questions regarding operation after I had taken the boat out a few times. I haven't had a boat in years, so I had several things I needed further explanation on. Mark was exceptionally patient and knowledable and prompt to respond. Couldn't ask for better response and help. Also, buying the boat was a breeze. Jamie in finance goes above and beyond in helping. Seriously, if you want great service and great products, this is the best place to buy your new "toy".
