    I own a 34' cruising boat that is too large to be trailered. I had service work performed on the…read morediesel engine fuel system of my boat by Holiday Point Marina in November 2017 just prior to winterizing the boat against winter. During the recommission of the boat in April 2018, the engine would not start. The problem is the fuel system is not sealed properly and is sucking air into the system. I am able to start the engine with the use of starting fluid, but this engine has never required starting fluid in 4 years and over 3200 miles of cruising. Upon learning of the issue, I contacted Phil (Manager) and described the issue, he told me to just run the boat back down and they would take a look at it. I expressed my concern of running the boat 6 hours and locking thru a lock and dam system on a boat with a known fuel problem. I asked since the mechanic lives only 20 minutes from the boat, could he come to the boat to troubleshoot this issue. The answer I received was NO. I asked Phil to repeat his answer because I couldn't believe my ears. Again he said "No." There was no room for discussion. I asked him if he has heard of Active Captain. CLICK! The phone line went dead. (Active Captain is a listing of Marinas, Anchorages and Local Knowledge. This listing is updated and given a rating by the boating community. We post our experiences, both good and not so good. Every member of Active Captain has access to this listing and make decisions of who to do business with based on these reviews.) I was hoping for far better service warranty after paying close to $1000 for a service and the engine doesn't start correctly after only six hours running time AND the only way that they would take care of the issue is to put my boat and possibly my life in peril by running a boat with a known faulty engine thru a lock and dam system on the Ohio River. I had no safe choice than to hire another mechanic to repair the botched job received from Holiday Point Marina.
