What a rip-off! This week I had two jetskis serviced at the new Full Throttle Seadoo place in…read moreKingsland. All that was done was an oil change and replacing three spark plugs. The bill came to $863.13 or $432 per jetski!! For an oil change which takes 3.5 quarts of oil and a filter! The parts came to about $112, the rest was for labor at $170 an hour plus shop supplies, hazardous waste charge (oil), and credit card fee (3.5%). And by the way, it took this Master mechanic (at $170 he must top-of-the line) 1.5 hours to do this oil change! Incidentally, I looked at an old 2023 bill, when the exact same mechanic changed the oil in the exact same jetskis and it took him 1.2 hours per jetski then. And of course the hourly rate was a lot cheaper back then too (37% cheaper), but it's different ownership now when Full Throttle took over from Highland Lakes Seadoo. I guess they had to increase the time the mechanic worked on these jetskis or raise the labor rate even more to get more money in, but how much more than $170 per hour are you going to charge for a guy doing a basic oil change? Or perhaps the mechanic is slowing down in his old age, who knows? My advice? Perhaps it pays to look for a different place. By the way, all the positive reviews (with the exception of one) are about Highland Lakes Seadoo, which were the previous owners. I liked that place. The new ownership has turned greedy.

Capital Marine Services failed in Hudson Bend 3 times to install a new long block engine in my boat…read moreafter I payed $11,000 in full. After 9 months I had to forcefully retrieve my boat and have it taken to 5 Star marine. They said they have never seen a more failed complete disaster of an install. Capital Marine Services made a contract with 5 Star marine to fix my boat. They never payed them the full amount they promised and I was forced to pay it myself. Capital Marine Service admitted they owed me the money and would mail me a check. It has been 30 days. As of today still no check. Capital Marine still owes me $1009.75 Capital Marine will lie to you, deceive you and fool you. BEWARE! I have all this documented and can prove every word I speak. 5 Star Marine fixed my boat in 40 days and Capital Marine Services could not fix it in 270 days. Let that sink in!

All blisters were taken care of including some from a previous bottom job that were simply painted over. They prices are fairly inline with other quotes I received. Something I didn't expect was that they supplied shore power to keep my batteries charged. I don't know about engine repair but I would be happy to have them work on my engines should an issue arise. I highly recommend Capital Marine for services to your boat.

It took them two months to finally give us a quote for State Farm insurance. They had our boat for seven months, constantly stringing us along with lies and excuses as to why it was taking so long to repair our boat. They told us that they had a buyer for the boat and had actually gotten a substantial deposit to secure the purchase of the boat, none of which turned out to be true. When we finally had had enough of their BS and lies, we went and got our boat back, only to find that they had not finished the repairs that we had already paid them for, but they also somehow managed to put 70+ hours of use on our boat. Moe bragged to a good friend of ours that he "drives the hell" out of the boats on his lot until his customers come back and take their boats. We have another friend that told us he was using our boat to party on the lake. We are seriously considering legal action.

The owners Luann and Joe are extremely nice, and they seem to really care about you as a person. On top of that, they are both very knowledgeable about everything boat related and can often tell you a solution off the top of their heads. Even though I felt the carb work on our boat was more expensive than I would have imagined (or liked), I did think the pricing overall was pretty fair. This is our first boat, so I'm not well in-tune with that world. Both Joe and Luann were also kind enough to show us around our boat once we told them it's is our first one. They had great invaluable pointers. If you're looking for a down to Earth place where you'll be face-to-face with the owners, Buchanan Boat Works is a great place to take your boat. I totally recommend it!
