From the owner: Been getting lots of emails asking us if we do infact repair 2-stroke motors. The answer is "YES"…read morewe do. I guess lots of repair shops will refuse to work on 2-strokes nowadays. Summer 2025: Been dealing with lots of bad/rotten fuel. Did you know: Ethanol in boat fuel is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air through tank vents, leading to water contamination, phase separation, and potential engine failure. This creates a water-ethanol mixture that settles at the bottom of the tank, causing corrosion, hard starts, and damaged components. Phase Separation: When water concentration reaches approx1/2 of 1%, the ethanol-water mixture separates from the gasoline and sinks, where the engine fuel pick-up is located. Engine Damage: This water-rich mixture causes severe engine sputtering, stalling, rust, and corrosion of aluminum tanks, fuel lines, and carburetors. Solvent Properties: Ethanol acts as a solvent, loosening debris in the fuel system, which can clog filters, injectors, and carburetors. Storage Issues: Ethanol-blended fuel degrades faster, making it risky to leave in a boat for long periods. If a tank has already suffered significant phase separation, the only remedy is to drain the tank completely. Clean fuel system completely out. And start with fresh ethanol free fuel with stabilizer.

Fantastic location on Mallots Bay. Nice wide dock slips with a gas dock on site. The entire staff…read moreis so friendly, helpful and accommodating. The manager Peter really helped me get my boat from CT and into a slip at the Marina. Great first experience boating on Lake Champlain thanks to Champlain Marina

Great marina and storage facility. Peter, the new manager, is making some great changes. Bruce,…read morethe former manager, was a great guy, but Peter is updating a lot of updates and improvements. Friendly to DIY and outside vendors. Reasonable rates, super accommodating. Friendly crew, good communications to both slip customers and storage customers. Plus, good protection from all directions... Kitchen and grills available. Very nice and clean restrooms. Easy walk to restaurants, bar, provisions, marine hardware, fuel, creemees, liquor store, breakfast, and more. Very solid operation.

Made a pontoon boat reservation over 3 weeks ago for a family day on the water to celebrate my…read moreyoungest son's 10th birthday. Reservation was for Sunday afternoon. A woman called 5:00 PM Saturday afternoon to inform us she had bad news: mechanical issues with the boat to which we were (arbitrarily) assigned meant that our reservation was cancelled. No empathy. No apology. You'd think I was talking to a NYC Taxi dispatcher from 1979. Every question was met by: "I'll ask the manager to call you;" her only goal to get off the phone. I hate to say it, but all-too-typical Burlington, VT area smug, arrogant, never-heard-of Customer Service attitude. Called back after a while looking for that manager with whom I was supposed to speak -- apparently he was too busy gassing boats or something (she reported) -- you can't make-up this stuff!! This woman just couldn't care less how she affected my son's 10th birthday plans. To quote: "we're a small marina and that's just the way it is." And oh yeah... "speak to the manager" was repeated at least 10 times -- easiest way to get off the phone, right? Avoid this place like the plague - like the Cyanobacteria all over it anyway. Still waiting for that call... just hung up with another rental place that said, quote, "This is the 5th call we've had that said Apple Island Marina cancelled our reservation."

Criminally over priced and woefully inadequate customer service. Get ready to be skinned alive!…read more Oh yeah, and they make you top off the tank at the gas station THEY OWN!' Don't waste your hard earned money on these thieves.

We have rented a tri-pontoon from Woodard for two years in a row. We had an amazing experience…read moreboth times. Woodard is very welcoming and helpful. Kids had a blast when we pulled them on the tube and the water board. I highly recommend if you are looking for a day on Bomoseen relaxing with friends and family. Worth every penny.
