Outstanding, family-run operation that delivers exemplary customer & marine service, every time…read more Highly recommend! Let me explain why In November 2017, I met with Dave Willis about a boat he had for sale in his yard. He greeted myself and my two year old daughter walking with us to show the boat, helping her climb the ladder. I explained I am a full time first responder and also United States Marine who was slated to deploy overseas the following year for approximately 15 months. Dave Willis and I had a 40 minute conversation in regards, coming to find out Dave is also a member of Halesite Fire Department. Outstanding! Long story short, Dave and his family at Willis Marine Center worked with me remotely (while deployed) and then in person again for another TWO YEARS to finalize this boat purchase. In July 2019, we finalized the sale and Dave went out of his way to prepare every document ahead of time. They lowered the boat into the water and observed it floating prior to my arrival, Dave noticing a leaking drain plug. They repaired it one day and the next morning me, my daughter and dog cruised out of Huntington Harbor for Oyster Bay. Not to be outdone, the boat (a 1969) has begun a complete restoration since that time, and just this week Dave, Todd and everyone at Willis Marine Center hauled the boat having arleady ordered, received, and got the components ready to begin the first major portion of this ambitious project, a 14ft x 30inch teak swim platform mounted to a freshly primed, painted and finish polished transom. Dwight and Rick do the installation in a matter of hours and knock this job out of the park! Transom stripped, primed, painted, polished and then Dwight and Rick install the platform from scratch - Guess how long this took? If you guessed 4 days in TOTAL then your right. See pictures on their FB page!! Did I mention my sister and brother-in-law bought a boat this year and first place she chose to moor, store, and service her boat is Willis Marine Center? Not a coincidence folks! Come down and meet the entire team at Willis Marine Center, you will not go anywhere else. Last but not least...I met a ton of great people hanging out down here. Generally boat people are good people, but boat people that are HAPPY with their Marina are even friendlier. Trust me on this one! -Patrick Kelly

Wow. What a nice group of people. We arrived with 4 boats…read moreand were greeted with smiles and plenty of action. The pool is beautiful. Some of us didn't have the correct adapter and were given a loaner. I was in a member's spot who came home early. The dock master sought me out, asked if he could move the boat. We went back after our dip in the pool to an adjacent slip with all connections reconnected neatly and properly. The dock guys and gals made every effort to make us feel at home. If any "complaint" were to be made it would be that the internet was poor at times....but, barring inclement weather who cares. We would come back anytime.

I have been coming to HYC for 3 years now as a transient. The first year I thought something got to…read morebe wrong, everybody is too nice but I got used to it. The dock hands actually know what they are doing unlike most marinas that is if they have dock hands. The boaters them selfs are extremely nice and friendly, they always make it a point and ask if we are enjoying our selfs and if we are having a good time. The marina management and making arrangements to come in as transient is very easy. The POOL is gorgeous and the view is second to non. The life guards are very responsible and have Very good swap system. Unlike life guards anywhere else I have seen they are not on their phones the whole time. If you have a dinghy it is great to take it around the bay. Finally the town or some restaurants are in walking distance. Enjoy, I will definitely come back again.

It does seem like they added a bunch more people last summer and reservations were more difficult. Great, helpful staff. Good training. Love to be able to fish or ski for a few hours and drive the boat to the marina, turn the keys in and walk away with zero responsibility.

Now that the owners daughter has taken over the business, West Shore Marina has been cutting corners left and right, and the quality has diminished. You could hear over our boats radio many other captains trying to dock with no response from any staff, it's like they don't care any more and that's really disappointing.
