Mike was very good about explaining all he had done and how the boat will perform now after the work. And Kevin and Danielle were so nice and accommodating to me with communication via phone and email. All three were so helpful and informative on my boat needs. And they gave me lots of goodies, extra boat plugs, floating keychain, gas cap opener, a fresh shop towel, heck even a Gatorade upon leaving for my drive home. Will definitely recommend and great job to Kevin's!! You've made a new friend!

I had an excellent experience with Mason and the crew at Southern Boatworks. As the previous long…read morereview states, Mason is a hands-on owner and is generally found out in the yard actively directing and supervising the work, rather than sitting in the office. He is knowledgeable, courteous and knows what he is doing. He is busy, but attentive to his customers and is quick to return a call. It is clear that he has been working in and around boats most of his life. His attention to detail and level of concern about the quality of work performed is refreshing. My boat needed fiberglass work after she was struck while tied to the dock. Mason prepared an estimate for the damages, communicated with the opposing insurance company to ensure they had the information they needed, arranged a spot for my boat (she is too wide to haul out at his slip), and he ensured the work was performed on-time and on-budget. In addition, I needed a water maker installed, and he made sure that was done on time and on budget as well. To make sure it was completed as promised, he came in on a Saturday and spent most of the day finishing the job himself after one of his crew had called in sick. I have nothing but good things to say about Mason. In addition to Mason, I want to make sure I mention Big Nick and Guillermo. Nick stayed after work to help get work done on the boat, showing his commitment to getting the job done and done well. Guillermo did the fiberglass work, and he is excellent at it. Like Mason, I have nothing but good things to say about Guillermo as well. I know Mason is committed to working with the boating community, and he is currently widening his haul out so he will be able to lift catamarans, which will make his yard the only place in Galveston Bay other than Port Bolivar that can haul out a cat like mine, which is just over 25 feet wide. He is building up his business, and he does good work. Don't hesitate to use his services. Mike Golden

We had high hopes for this company. I'll start by saying that Scott was kind and genuinely…read moredetermined to get our cars fixed. He made multiple visits over five days to work on both vehicles, and his effort was appreciated. On the last visit, the owner came along with another technician, Nathen, who we were told had experience at Honda. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end. It quickly became clear that Scott was sent out before he was properly trained. He did his best, but several mistakes were made -- one being a wheel bearing replacement that never should have been done. Over a year later, we're still dealing with the consequences of that unnecessary repair. After his visits, our Honda (which only needed basic brake work) completely stopped running within a week. Discount Tire later found a large wrench left under the hood -- just one example of the sloppy workmanship we experienced. Communication was also a mess. We were quoted several different totals for the same job, told to hold off paying until a part arrived, and then suddenly threatened with vehicle towing for "non-payment." I kept records of every message because the company didn't. Adding to all this, the owner and Nathen displayed very unprofessional behavior while on their visit which I got a front row seat too thanks to the open bedroom window. Without going into unnecessary detail, let's just say Nathen was more focused on our back house neighbor and the possibility of some certain types of films playing out in real life...than on the job they were there for and hired to do. The takeaway: do not send untrained techs on jobs just because you're getting a lot of calls. You're risking customers' safety and trust. For anyone reading this -- a useful tip: if you've paid at least 10% of what's owed, a mobile mechanic cannot legally repossess or tow your vehicle. Know your rights. We paid well over that amount and plenty more afterward due to their mistakes.

Updating the review I posted last year…read more Let's see - we had a bottom job done. Looked great. Lousy job. They didn't prime the bottom before they painted - so not only did the paint come off in a bunch of places (painted 11 months ago), but it was EXPENSIVE paint and was supposed to last. The worst part is that the shipyard that we took it to this month said that because the priming wasn't done, we started getting bubbles in our fiberglass bottom. Not good. Also, one of the reasons we wanted to have it hauled out at the time was that they said they could maintain our stabilizers. When it came time, they said they didn't have the special tool they needed to do the job. STILL fuming. My advice to you is to stay away.
