Traveling south from the Chesapeake Bay preparing to cross the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas and south for many months, I discovered last Sunday, December 5, 2021, when we arrived in Fort Lauderdale that the steering on our tender had almost frozen up. I tried to free it up as best as I could by lubricating the steering rod and ensuring the engine turned freely on its pivot, but nothing worked. Monday morning I began calling all local vendors looking for a steering cable that I might be able to replace. Fortunately, I finally contacted Inflatable Boat Pro and spoke with Ken, one of the owners. He said that he would check for a cable and call me back. As promised, he called back, had a cable, and advised the 50 hp engine might have to come off to replace the cable. If I could get the tender to a local boat ramp he would arrange for a pick up. I explained that I was trying to cross on Wednesday and he said he would do what he could. Ken's driver met me as promised within two hours, put the tender on a trailer, and drove me back to Hall of Fame Marina where our trawler Shangri-La was located. Tuesday morning Ken sent me several photos of the engine removed from the tender and the work underway. Not only were these folks able to replace the steering cable that day, they also did a full annual service on the outboard. Ken himself picked me up at the marina with the tender on the trailer and drove me to the ramp and launched me Tuesday afternoon in a perfectly functioning tender. This simply could not have been a better experience. Prompt response, professional services, accommodating our time constraints with a 24 hour turnaround, and a very reasonable charge for expertly performed high quality work were provided. This level of service is extraordinary. I highly recommend Inflatable Boat Pro to anyone seeking an inflatable boat, dinghy, or for service work. You can't go wrong with these folks!

I have been looking for a new dinghy and was recommended to your establishment by a friend. My wife and I went to your place last week to select a new dinghy but we were unable to decide. It is good that fate was on our side and looking out for us. Our friend that recommended your facility was just charged an exorbitant amount for a repair that should have been covered by a warranty. When I questioned him concerning the repair cost he told me that the purchase was "without warranty". I have never heard of such a thing. As a former business owner, my word was my bond. I would never cheat a customer over a couple of dollars concerning a repair. To begin with, your employee was woefully unprepared. I assisted your customer with the delivery of his dinghy to the launch ramp. When we arrived, your man was late (first problem). The second problem was that he was unprepared to make the necessary, minor repair to the dinghy as he had no access to electricity to run the inflation pump (a low cost inverter should be part of the stock equipment) which should be backed up by a manual pump. The repair should have been made at the launch ramp and you should have eaten the cost of the repair as a matter of good relations with customers both current and future. I was having lunch with your customer when he got your bill, a bill that should never have been generated. To say the least, I will not be back for that dinghy. You have stolen from your customer at the cost of your good name. I will be posting this on YELP to assist your potential customers in making the right decision which is obviously to go to another dealer with scruples. The only reason I have given this dealer one star is because there is nothing lower. Negative stars would be appropriate. read more

I dropped my inflatable boat off. It is in a pretty bad area first off but i just needed it fixed. Don't bring a trailer, they don't have room to maneuver it or park the trailer is my first bit of advice. How do you get your boat there then, well thats a good question. The lifted the boat off with a fork lift and were very nice. They were going to fix the hole and a scratch on the bottom. I never heard anything so about a month later I called. They said they would call me back but never did. I waited a week and called again. He said he would call me back, never did but sent me a bill and said your boat is done. I went to go pick it up next day and parked my truck long ways in the only possible place to put it with a trailer. One guy brings it out and says this is more than a one person job but doesn't offer another person, or the forklift. I start helping him manhandle it on my trailer which is not a boat trailer just a large utility trailer. After all that the bottom is now scratched in a different spot. As soon as the boat was loaded and I do not mean properly loaded I just mean loaded, the guy was gone. Probably because it started raining as I finished the job. As it rained harder I went to go sit in the truck. While sitting in the truck a big moving van tries to park in a normal car spot due to the lack of space. He came an inch from hitting my truck before I started honking the horn. Then a passenger gets out and starts yelling at me! All I can say is the boat no longer has a hole in it but has a new scratch and I have learned my lesson to find a new place to get my boat fixed that actually invests in proper facilities and provides service to get the job and provides service after you pay for the job. read more

This was my first time buying an inflatable boat and Ken the manager was very helpful. I got a good deal on a older model Caribe and then he and his staff installed my Euro steering setup on the new boat. Even though there was an error with the title application which was not their fault but the fault of the manufacturers they took care of it immediately and let me borrow a trailer to get my boat home to my sailboat in Daytona Beach I recommend this company. read more

Last week I called Ken at Inflatable Boat Pro. because my inflatable developed a serious leak since we left Cape Cod Massachusetts last Fall. Ken directed me to a deep water public boat ramp where I could take the dingy off the deck of my sailboat and get it to Bruno who was there with a trailer. It was around 9:30 when he got there. Called me earlier to tell me traffic was going to make him a little late. Bruno is so very considerate, pleasant ,knowledgeable, polite and friendly. Who also knows his business. He asked if I wanted the boat cleaned after the leak got repaired. I jumped at the idea and said yes. My registration patches had come unglued and are in poor shape. Bruno took them with him and the dingy. This was around 9:30 AM. He called later that same day and said meet him at the ramp. The six year boat looked brand new! Even the registration patches looked great. I was so pleased and appreciative of the whole experience. The ease of transferring the dingy, getting it back the SAME day (I figured a few days to get it done). And most of all I was pleased and felt privileged to meet and be helped by Bruno. He's not a 10 but an 11. Thanks again man. read more

We just bought a beautiful, well maintained rib from Inflatable boat pro at a reasonable price. We looked at it on a Saturday, they were closed but Bruno an employee opened up so we could see it. He's very knowledgeable and helpful. We met with Ken on Monday and bought the boat. Ken assured us that it was in good running order. It turned out to be a great buy! This is a 2011 model and is like brand new, we are very satisfied and if the need arises, we will do business again with inflatable boat pro! read more

Inflatable boat pro is a true gem of a business. They have integrity and attention to detail and I couldn't be happier with the work they did on my Williams Jet Tender. They are capable of even the most complex projects and a true pleasure to deal with. I look forward to working with them again. read more

These guys are awesome. We shopped a lot of places in south Florida looking for a quality small RIB with motor. We were impressed the minute we walked in the door with both the salesman/owner Jeff, and the products on display in the showroom. We had spent a lot of time researching and viewing other boats and were very happy with the deal they made us. He even delivered the boat personally. Great company with honest people and superb customer service. read more

Wonderful experience! They were recommended by our boat broker because he heard so many good thing about them. We went to several places looking for the perfect dingy and we knew right away they were the place to buy from. We were treated with exceptional customer service. I can not say enough good things about the owners. They exceeded all our expectations! read more

Warning. These people take your property, sell it and not pay you. We had an 11 ft Nouvarania and a 15 hsp Honda on consignment, it was sold and they never paid us. Now we have to resort to small claims court. Would not recommend. read more

The most reliable boat tender shop in all of Florida. Great prices and the service has been outstanding. Can't see why anyone would go elsewhere! The new showroom is wonderful and convenient. Many thanks to the Rodgers. read more
