That said what really made me happy was 2 very important points. First of all they beat thier competition by over $20.00 . And second , I called for parts availability at 4:15 Friday afternoon . Mike the owner stayed late so I would have time to drive up and get the parts I needed. Price , value and service is what makes them worth the drive. And I'll toss in a couple of extras. Very approachable and exsteamly knowledgeable staff . So if your going for the boating life

I have come in here multiple times to pick up parts for my boyfriends boats and they have always…read morebeen very friendly! You know it's bad when they start to recognize you, ha! My boyfriend will call or text their office number with the items they need and they will be ready by the time I get there to pick up. They have amazing customer service and fair prices on the parts they sell. There is even a cute little doggie to run away from you. We haven't had any work done on the boats here but for purchasing supplies, I can safely say 5 stars.

Then stated they don't sell parts for my boat and I could have never bought a part from this business because they don't sell them and there was no more he can help me with (I've been here before for parts on my stern drive). I've had better experiences here in the past but this recent one just wasn't it.

I'm VERY happy with AJ and the service he provided. I have a 1996 Ski Natique that needed the usual…read moreimpeller change and a fresh overview. Thankfully, everything went well, but he spent the extra time going over things I had not even mentioned, for example checking belts, tightening hose clamps, tightening packing nuts on the prop shaft as well as the rudder. I feel what separated AJ from the other boat shops, is that he did not just look at the one thing he was requested to do, but actually spent the time going over everything to ensure nothing major was missing. I will certainly be using him in the future from now on!

I took an OReilly house brand battery in for a check. It was bad and needed to be replaced. The…read morebattery sticker showed it was purchased in Jan 2024- so still under warranty. I explained that I had recently purchased the truck and the salesperson told me if I could find the receipt or provide the previous owner's phone number the battery would be replaced at no charge. Excited at the prospect of saving a couple of hundred dollars, I returned home and spent 20 minutes or so searching for the receipt and taking pics of the original owner's phone number. I couldn't find the receipt but, armed with a phone number and email from the previous owner I returned to the store. A different sales person then informed me that the warranty wasn't transferrable and I was out of luck. The original sales person was still working the counter and I asked why that person said I could provide a receipt or phone number to get a free replacement. "I don't know, warranties aren't transferable". I honestly expected to pay for a new battery anyway, but the mixed messages cost me a bit of time and frustration- I have other things I need to do. I would have just bought a battery in the first place had I known... piss poor experience and piss poor customer service.

I ended up foolishly paying $1,200 more for a fish finder that turned out to be a bait and switch. The Lowrance fish finder, as you can buy it as a consumer, has both sidescan and downscan features. The wrong transducer was installed in the boat. It was an total pain to get this point across to Richard. I sent many emails and photo proof that it was the wrong transducer. Apparently it takes several weeks for C&C to send emails to Ranger and I was told to, "Please be patience [sic]." After bugging Richard multiple times (actually about literally 30 emails), he finally got Ranger to agree to install a new transducer. I naively assumed they would install the sidescan AND downscan unit, which is the common version available to the consumer. But then didn't. I drove for five hours to have them install a transducer than only had downscan. And I didn't figure this out until I was on the water. I would have gladly paid the difference in getting the right unit, but Richard/Ranger again baited and switched. On top of it, he tries to make the customer feel bad for asking him questions and bothering him, after just having spent many thousands of dollars. I went out of my way to deal with a mom-and-pop shop. Thinking that was a naive choice.
