Honker Cut Marine

Judd at Honker cut does an exceptional job with attention to detail. Our motors work perfect after a complete rebuild on our Fountain 23 CC, Thanks a lot!

I took my boat to honker cut marine to be diagnosed for a noise in the engine. The professionals there didn't know what it was so they sent it out to a machine shop in Stockton. Turned out a bad cam lobe. The engine a merCruiser502, was completely rebuilt with only 325 hrs on the engine WITHOUT authorization or notification to me of what was being done, when I was picking the boat up, the FIRST time, they didn't want me to start it up, test drive it or give me any paperwork or receipts for any work or parts replaced. I launched it at a local lake to find the boat now has NO power steering, could not steer the boat. Worked perfectly prior to repairs. Also, BRAND NEW engine had 12 pounds oil pressure. Yes TWELVE POUNDS!!! Took it back again and again, 4 times at shop. Currently the boat is at the shop for LOW HP, VERY LOW OIL PSI, ROCKER ARMS CLATTERING, SMELL OF LEAKING OIL OR BLOW BY while running, NOISES BETWEEN ENGINE AND OUTDRIVE, it has been there OVER 2 WEEKS NO PHONE CALL NO CONTACT FROM HONKER CUT MARINE, I've called only to get answering machine with NO RETURN CALL. The boat will be picked up and taken to a different shop to fix all of their incompetence!!

If youre looking for a reliable, honest, and efficient shop to take your boat, look no further. Rod and his son Judd at Honker Cut do top notch work and are easily the most knowledgable guys in the area on high performance boats and anything Mercury. These guys had my outdrive off the boat and problems diagnosed in a few days that a previous shop had messed up. Rod was easy to get ahold of and was constantly updating me on progress of the boat and getting the ok from me to carry on with repairs. The owner Rod is a super cool guy who has tons of knowledge to share and if youre lucky will give you a tour of the shop and his boats. Nothing but high quality stuff here. I wont take my boat anywhere else now, and if you have something they cant work on, which is highly unlikely, they will lead you in the right direction.

If you like paying double for work, then by all means Honker Cut is the place to go. i had 2 motors switched out of 2 boats, and he charged me over $10,000 for something that should have been done for half that amount. On top of that, i had to have another marine mechanic fix their unsafe setup in my boat. there is much more to tell, but suffice it to say, i would think real hard before taking your boat there.i should have realized, when i was the only customer, the was a reason why!

I rented a large storage unit from Honker Cut Marine for over a year. The security of the place seems top notch, and everything seemed to be well maintained. Cindy was patient with me when I forgot the gate code, and they generously credited me for month's rent when they didn't have to (as I was not completely out before the beginning of the month). I would happily rent from them again, and would recommend them to other people looking for secure storage on the delta.

Judd K. At hocker cut marine is one of the best high performance boat mechanics there is in California he installed my engine in my boat and it has performed flawlessly for the last two years I have purchased many boats and he has done all the work for me and is always done an excellent job at a fair price
