I have been doing business with these guys since the 90's and the one thing I can tell you is that…read morethey are honest and cheaper than other dealers with huge overhead. Liz in the office is a gem and Bob knows his way around boats, snowmobiles, personal watercraft​ and I would trust him with any of my toys! Sometimes is dealing with the public you get someone who is unrealistic expectations and despite their best efforts to inform a customer that on old malfunctioning equipment​ sometimes fixing one thing leads to another weak point which fails people hear what they want to! I'll put my 20+ years of dealing with them as a satisfied customer who has done probably 100+ service or purchases with them against any one time hard to please a ​person who had unrealistic expectations for the condition of their equipment!

I've never been to a marine supply store before, so I didn't know what to expect walking in to West Marine. I was helped by Peter who was so friendly and knowledgeable that I had to write this review. Besides helping me choose the appropriate fiberglass repair kit, he walked me through in great detail what best practice is for a repair like mine. He also told me about Small Boat Repair on route 7 to look for used paddles. Happy I checked this spot out first though. Thanks Peter!

Worst service ever! - one star is even too much - from the store assistant manager Issac (if he did…read morenot lie about his name, I had to ask him 3 times as he did not want to give it to me) when I walked in, I said hi and he did not even look at me. Every time I asked a question (price check, info etc) he looked annoyed as if I distracted him from more important things... When I told him that a smile would be nice, he took offense and when I showed up at the cash to pay, he obviously ignored me and passed all other customers before us, even if they just showed up at the cash... he did that on purpose. Good that Peter was there and was super nice, if it was not for him I would have let my 350$ purchase there.

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.
