Please look at review at other location. Highly recommend. Greg was awesome best mechanic up in this area.

Absolutely, horrible customer service. After messing up, a insurance job that we had done had to take it somewhere else to get fixed correctly, tried to explain this to them. And they still tried to charge me additional money would not go back to them under any circumstance. Do your homework before trying them out. read more

We recently purchased a used boat from Happy Days. Matt was amazing to work with. He listen to our "wants", understood our budget, and we ended up with a great boat. Process could not have been smoother. We will definitely use their services again for any future boating needs. read more

I had a good experience at Happy Days Boating: I bought a 30' cruiser, dealing with Kevin. I'm not from the local area, but saw the boat on the computer and hired a spotter (wegolook.com) to send me detailed pictures. It looked great so I then came for a visit, detailed inspection, and a test drive, all of which went well. The boat came with a limited mechanical warranty, but I did not need it. Happy Days is a large operation, and everyone I dealt with was very professional. I would buy here again. read more

I dealt with salesman Jason recently and he was top-notch. I actually bought a boat from him in the Spring and it was not for me so they worked with me on getting into the right boat for what I wanted and I ended up trading in for a new Robalo. Could not be happier. The entire outfit, from sales, to their mechanics, to the gals behind the counter are all great to deal with. If you are in the market for a new or used boat I would strongly recommend Happy Days and their staff. read more

April 2013, I purchased a 2005 Seaswirl Striper 1851WA with 115hp outboard from Happy Days Boating. I was told that every boat went through a rigorous inspection and sea trial before being placed for sale. I was lead to believe that the boat was in excellent condition that was turn key ready to be out on the water. The engine was supposedly in immaculate condition. I now believe this to be the all too familiar sales pitch. This was my first boat purchase and I have been regretting this purchase ever since. I took the boat out for a sea trial up the portage river. The engine seemed to run fine under low rpm. Since April I have not had a pleasant experience with the engine. The engine has never run right since day one. It could not get above 10mph and wouldn't push 3000 rpms. Any contact I made with the service department it was the same thing over and over, "Its bad fuel, it's the old fuel" it's not marine gas". So I never used regular gas always Marine gas that is 100 percent ethanol free. They did not offer to look over the motor or suggested bringing the boat back. They told me I was SOL in other words. I decided to take my boat and motor to a dealer that has competent Yamaha certified mechanics. After countless hours of Tech trouble shooting, computer diagnostics, and running the boat, the boat fuel system was taken apart; the motor was taken apart and finally found the several serious issues. Happy Days Boats new that the fuel pump was severely corroded; they only temporarily ran cleaner it to run it. The hoses were old and disintegrated and caused particles to clog up the fuel system all fuel filters were plugged up and degraded, fuel lines degraded. Fuel pump was discovered to be bad. The tank has to be drained due to the contaminants found in the motor. There is no way that this just happened. It was a problem they encountered when they purchased the boat and decided to pawn it off on a new customer. The Master mechanic couldn't believe the motor was over looked by happy days. He stated that they never went over the motor. If they in fact went through their pre-sale inspection they would have most definitely found all these issues. I was told that they had never seen such a heavy fuel system contamination before with the amount of corrosion in the fuel system pump, cylinders, and tank. Happy Days Boating wanted to make a quick sale and only did the bare minimum to get the motor running temporarily so they could pawn off the problems onto me. Happy Days Boating has cost me currently well over 850.00 and counting. The factory tech has been finding additional issues as we speak. The owner Kevin Gottram should be ashamed of himself and his service department. Happy Days Boating has made no attempts to make this right. They cannot even provide me with their paperwork showing that the boat and engine went through an inspection before selling it to me. I will be contacting the State of Ohio Attorney General's Office, Better Business Bureau, and filing suit. Buyer Beware!! read more

Not that this is any sort of a revelation, but I would strongly recommend that you take any used boat and trailer that you plan on purchasing from them to another marina and/or trailer shop for a full inspection before making your purchase. I bought a used boat from them in which they were acting in the capacity of a broker. I asked specific, detailed questions in writing about the maintenance status of the boat and trailer. I was assured in a written, email response that the trailer would be "checked over by us." Brakes and bearings failed on my initial 90 mile tow home. Additionally, the master cylinder needed to be replaced as it had water in it. They didn't do anything that was necessarily illegal. I certainly am responsible for letting my guard down and shouldn't have relied on my cursory inspection of the tire, lights, feeling the hubs for heat after towing, etc. I guess I should feel somewhat fortunate that it is only going to be about a $1K error in judgement. Clearly, I or somebody else on the road could have been seriously injured had these problems resulted in a traffic accident. read more
