Not…read moreonly do they work on boats brought to them but they work around local marinas from Santa Barbara to Port Hueneme in dry dock and Yachts in the slip. They are good at what they do but sometimes they get stretched thin It happens to the best of us.Its completely understandable when you're good at what you do. For anybody believing some of the trolls here on yelp, take this into consideration. businesses that are good at what they do for the most part have lines, and sometimes even with an appointment, you have to realize that you are staged in the yard or the place of business to get in the work line. Alot of times that means theres a wait.Look at most mom and pop, specialty shops that are worth there salt and tell me that I'm wrong. It's very difficult, sometimes to have a quick turnaround when you're working on stuff like marine motors even in fresh water situations. This is not normal automotive power plant riding around in ideal conditions it doesn't have a caustic environment that it is living in with heavy vibration constantly pounding every component on it. Systems can be 100% In a controlled idle location, but a few miles off shore something can happen ...would you want a mechanic to charge you for a full rewire of your boat and install new motor components everytime your in the shop for a basic service just to cover themselves from a customers frustration on the fact that your boat is 10-30 years old or more ?? Of course not! Listen i can type this up and you can totally disregard what im saying but if you want some proper testimonials go speak to locals that protect our coast lines such as Ventura Harbor Patrol, Port Hueneme Patrol , Fish and Wildlife and the Reps from our local US Navy base .I know of no other boatyards that get work from those places consistently . Sometimes the writing is NOT on the interweb wall.

My mom had a broken pedal boat in Thousand Oaks and I reached out to him to see if he could fix it.

He even came back the next week to fix snaps on my mom's boat cover. Thank you Tim!!!

Although on boats my entire life, I was never responsible for one and I was intimidated. The owner, Captain Jair, met with me and developed an effective plan to diagnose and make the repairs, as well as to teach me how to Captain my own vessel. His lessons were, and continue to be, practical, educational and experiential. The repairs were made with common sense, which saved me SOO much time and money. Ventura Boating Services is amazing and hands-down I would recommend them to anyone who owns a boat or who even just enjoys boating and wants to learn more.
