Recently took the boat out of the water for a marine survey and of course the bottom paint is so bad that includes air bubbles on all the metal with no primer and the entire work needs to be redone. Not only I paid him again to cover his own work yet was not done right. Of course I had to deal with Jessie's attitude and him pointing finger at the diver which he has 20 plus year of experience of cleaning boats. Avoid this place

Highly recommend this as a fun activity in OC!

I wish there was a way on Yelp to leave 0 stars, as Hills doesn't deserve even 1…read more I called Hills to schedule a diesel delivery as I was coming back from Oxnard and needed about 450 gal of diesel. I spoke with Hills and gave them my credit card info when I was about 20-30 min out and told them that I would be at my slip within an hour or so. When I pulled into my slip, there was something hanging off the pilings and the supports for my outriggers both got caught and snapped, causing my riggers to drop down. I immediately ran out to get replacement supports to get my riggers back up, and while I was at West Marine (10 min away), I got a call from the guy who drives the fuel barge. He immediately started in on me with what I can only describe as a tirade. He started swearing at me and yelling, saying that I wasted his whole day since my outriggers were hanging down, and he couldn't tie up to fuel my boat. I tried to call him down a bit, which was tough as I was already stressed trying to get the riggers fixed, and explained that I would be back in about 15 min with the parts to get the riggers back up and out of the way. That wasn't good enough. He continued on about how I ruined his whole afternoon because he had to come all the way out to the marina and couldn't tie up due to my damaged outriggers. Right. I wasted his whole day since it's such a long ride from Balboa to the Dunes, and he couldn't wait 15-20 min for me to get back with the parts to repair the riggers. After a solid 5-10 min of being berated by this a-hole, I had enough, and proceeded to give it right back to him. Boaters usually have compassion for other boaters who are in a bind, but clearly this guy was too concerned with waiting a few minutes for me to get back and about getting back to his beer to have any compassion or understanding. He took a situation that was already stressful for me and just compounded it by yelling at me as though I did something to him on purpose. I will never get fuel from Hills again, as waiting 15-20 min so they could sell me 450 gal of diesel obviously was too much for them to handle. Moreover, Friday was extremely quiet in the harbor and I can't imagine they were running all over the place delivering large quantities of fuel to other boats. Instead of being patient and helpful, the guy was simply too self absorbed and too self important to take a minute and listen to the customer. I saved a voicemail from the guy and I wish there was a way for me to post it so the rest of you could hear what a jerk he is. I'll spend my $2,000 on fuel at Island Marine Fuel on Balboa where they are kind, friendly and treat customers with the same respect that they too deserve. Don't buy fuel from Hills. They don't deserve our business.

Boatswains locker had just the part we needed for our Chrysler 318 marine engine, a raw water pump…read more Unfortunately the part is very difficult to find unless bought online with a wait of up to 4-7 days of which we could not wait! We had to already postponed our trip to the Channel Islands for a couple of days for other reasons, so for them to have this part was a miracle. I had called earlier in the day and received a call back from George and Jerry about the part being available, they were very kind and helpful. When I arrived they made sure to make sure my old one lined up with the new one by measuring the specs on it, I found this to be good business practice to ensure your customer is getting the right part they also offered the part to me for a great price considering I could find this in the same day. Thank you boatswains locker for your excellent service and generosity!
