We purchased a pontoon boat in 2022 brand new off the lot at the edgewater FL location. We were told that our boat had a deck that will not rot because it wasnt made of wood. That what the biggest selling point for us. Fast foward to now, the back of our boat deck is completely rotted out from the top down and slowly spreading. When contacting factory direct, we found out the Edgewater location had closed. So we contacted the location in Ga. and were told that we can get a thermoplastic deck put on for a cost of 5k. I was told our deck already had that and now have to pay more money for it. They also told me that because of covid, it was hard to get parts which i understand, however they told me that they just put any old deck on there to sell the boats. So in 3 years time, my boat deck rotted to the point i fell off the ladder. They did not even use marine grade wood. That is unacceptable and a shame. I spent over 60k for a boat whos deck is rotted after 3 years of ownership. After much research, a wood deck should last close to 20 years. The warranty included plywood on it, however we didnt think it applied to us because according to factory direct, we didnt have a wooden deck. We were scammed especially during a time when the whole world was dealing with a pandemic. Dont buy from them.

I was in the market and they took care of me.... Very happy. I highly recommend Riley and Tyler. Chad took care of us in the walk through and test drive.

Boat N RV

(2 reviews)

Purchased April 2018 a "Brand NEW" 2017 Layton 293RK…read more 1,192 people saw your review! just on google 1,144 people saw your video! Cut and past "Rotten Rv Roof Tennessee" for You Tube video. Boat N RV's willingness to mislead, deceive and confuse senior citizens into purchasing a unit that was advertised as NEW and should have never been on the sales floor without a disclosure of thousands of dollars' worth damages caused by Boat N RV's Technicians that would need to be repaired. Deceptively leading us to believe the trailer had a factory warranty. This was the only reason we considering purchasing new. Also misled and deceived as to the true reason Boat N RV advertised the trailer as a "Manager's Special" and too the real reason the "owner" decided to drop the line. Several opportunities arose to disclose that the manufacture was out of business, but failed to do so. This left us with no manufactures warranty, no manufactures customer support, no source to procure the missing trailer manual and no source for OEM parts. Boat N RV advertisement was misleading. The pictures (taken at Panama City Store) in the advertising didn't match the unit in the showroom. (Bait and Switch) Boat N RV, deceptively rolling their out of pocket cost for the 1 year provided warranty in to our quote for a 5-year extended warranty. The quote we received and paid for was actually for the cost of a 6-year extended warranty but were told this was for a 5-year. Of the first 74 days of owning, It was in for service 31 DAYS. All work was denied Warranty Coverage. So I decided to cancel the warranty as it was useless. Boat N RV NEVER SENT OUR PAYMENT to American Guardian Warranty Service. AGWS rejected the contract for nonpayment. Due to this, I was entitled to a FULL refund. After 4 months of excuses, I contacted "Judge Judy" and was accepted to be on the show. I was called the next day and the check was in the mail. List of Damages caused by Boat N Rv Service Technicians I have found to date. Holes in roof/rotten roof decking - While buffing the AC cowling they sat the rotating buffing wheel on roof. 3 burn holes, resulting in about 24 sqft of rotted roof decking. We have 12 to 15 thousand dollars for repairs Knoxville Rv dealer estimate. Slide seals torn roof scraped - Slide hit while moving on lot. Extending pinched seals & slide roof. Evidence of slide tracks and adjusters being moved and left loose to the point the slide was ready to fall off while extending. We were told it was "Cosmetic Damage Only" Heated under belly sliced open to gain access - To align slide and replaced slide motor . They didn't even bother to reattach material and left it hanging open making it useless. Holes in furnace duct work and off vent- while working on slide. Hole Torn in Awning - No clue how they did that. Door handle - Broke into & tv stolen while in for service at Boat N RV. Holes (2) thru slide exterior wall - Installed dinette used to long of screws. Told me it was for an option not installed on the slide. Toilet Flush Valve Cracked - Improper winterizing by Boat N RV. I provided pictures of the leak and the invoice says "No Problem Found" Boat N RV has mishandled this matter from the very beginning. I sent a letter to Travis Gray that I would never bring my unit in for service, due to Service Dept. incompetence. I requesting to return the trailer for a full refund due to the damages I had found to date. Travis Gray called me July 2, 2018 and told me the matter would be turned over to the Corporate Lawyer. From that point on I have been hung up on, no response to voice messages, been told they out of office or on the phone. Only after the Tn Dept of Consumer Affairs Did I receive a response. Boat N RV refusal to take responsibility for the deceptive, misleading and confusing practices and pay to make the necessary repairs. This has been absolutely and positively the worst, most miserable, stressful, troublesome and trying purchasing experience!

Back in 2015, I emailed Boat N RV about their New Caravelle Razor line of boats. To my surprise,…read moreDon, the owner of the Company called me to discuss the boat. We Agreed on a build and pricing. The Boat was to be picked up in Americus Georgia, this way I could see the Production Plant and how the boats were designed and built. They would also take my wife and I to a local lake , for test drive ! It was a great experience that extends to 2019. I still have a relationship with the owner. I have had 2 times in ownership where I needed little things and Boat N Rv was very responsive to my needs and resolved the issue. I just damaged the hull on my boat ,I hit a piece of underwater floating debris on the lake after Hurricane Erma. Don is there again to help us out. Its hard to find good people these days. I thought the Wide World Web out there should know of our experience from Boat N RV, from Purchase of 2015 till 2019. Thx Don and Boat N RV

I recently purchased a Starcraft tritoon from Mike Chandler at the Singleton Lake Harding location…read more The experience was very positive all the way through. Did a test drive with Mike and Chandler Griggs. Both super nice, courteous and knowledgeable. When it came to paperwork, Robert Ely, Finance Manager, joined the conversation and was very helpful. We finished virtually all of the paperwork remotely. Overall, a very pleasant purchasing experience. I highly recommend Mike and his team!

Absolutely the worst experience I have had with service and price!!!!!…read moreI took my boat in to have a bearing replaced. I was quoted about $500 . Less than 3 hours later I recieved a call that it needed a u joint and a seal so I asked for the total and I was told $1052 plus tax so I approved it . 5 days later I was called and told it was ready and as they were working on it they found a bellow was bad so he replaced it and he didn't charge me any labor . I was fine with that . The part was $118 . So my bill should have been $1170 plus tax . No . When I asked for the total he told me it was $1742 . So I go down there and asked how did it jump almost 700. He told me he never quoted me the original 1052. After arguing with him he told me they recorded their phone calls so I asked him to please pull it. Funny they didn't have that one. So after talking to his boss in Atlanta we agreed on the original price of 1052 plus the bellow. I asked for my old parts. When I looked at them I could not see anything wrong with the u joint he sold me and no signs of possible future issues with it. So I took it to 2 other reputable marine shops to look at and they both said there was nothing wrong with it and there is no way they would have replaced or recommended it being replaced. So I guess you got me this time but I will never return to there and will never recommend it anyone I know. And by the way they service manager Steve needs costumer service classes.
