My neighbor had to fix so many small parts that Christian or the company didn't put in well, radio, lights etc. It was a mess. My captain neighbor did 6 hours of work on a brand new boat. Christians answer.. send me videos??? I'm still waiting for the canopy that I paid for that he forgot to give my husband when he picked up the boat. The one that came with it. He had not answered my calls or text. He Always says he's busy. Sad..I definitely suggest ti bring a person that knows about boats before you buy from a person who's only job is to get the product out. No Bueno today is July 20. No reasons to not get me my canopy. I'm not driving up there again. It's like buying a car and the radio isn't connected or you forgot the spare. Shouldn't you make it to the customer with a small I'm sorry? Mean while... no canopy no apologies..

Over that period of time it has constantly continued to improve and is now what I would consider to be the best marina around offering a total range of marine services and equipment. It by and far has the best bang for your buck for experienced labor, good workmanship, parts and equipment. I also like their location on the Dania Cut Off, which is far less cramped and more spacious than those located along the Intracoastal which always seem to have a more rushed more hassle of an environment in which to perform marine services.

Buyer Beware - My Experience with Seven Seas Yacht Sales…read more We recently looked at a Glacier Bay 2640 Renegade with Seven Seas Yacht Sales. Brett, the salesman, showed it to us on a Saturday, and it was pouring down rain. We were the only ones there, and we all got pretty wet walking around and looking at the boat. It was clear Brett didn't want to be there -- it felt like he was just holding it open for us and wanted to leave. Considering we were all wet and Brett didn't invite us to make an offer right then, we said we could come back Monday to take care of the offer and paperwork. He never mentioned any other offers or serious buyers. We should have been told on Saturday about any previous or current offers that were on the table. Nothing was brought up at all. We even asked how long the boat had been on the market, what the price had been, and how long it had been listed. Brett told us it had been on the market over 90 days, that the price had dropped significantly, that the seller was "very motivated," and that he would be flexible with our offer -- but never mentioned any interest from other buyers. Based on that, we had no idea anything was going on behind the scenes. Something was clearly being hidden from us. Our visit was merely used to push another buyer into accepting and paying a higher price than they initially wanted to. In doing this, Seven Seas managed to hurt all three parties involved: They didn't represent the seller properly, because they failed to tell him two parties were interested -- which could have led to multiple offers and potentially more money for the seller. They didn't represent their other buyer properly, because they pressured him into closing at a higher price than he may have wanted to pay. They misled us through complete omission, failing to disclose the current situation with the boat and other interested parties. On Monday morning, I called Brett at 10:00 -- no answer. Called again at 12:00 -- no answer. Finally called the office, and only then did he call me back to say the boat had been sold that morning. Based on the timing and what was said, I can almost guarantee that even if we had submitted an offer on Saturday, the owner of the boat would have never seen that offer -- Brett would have simply used it to pressure the other buyer into closing the deal at a higher price. When I spoke to Brett, he took no responsibility. Both he and Andy, the owner of Seven Seas, tried to spin the story about how the deal went down, despite offering a hollow "used car salesman" style apology. This kind of dishonesty and lack of transparency is unacceptable -- especially when you're paying extra to buy from a dealer, where the expectation is strong morals, ethics, and a commitment to all clients' best interests. If this is how they behave on something relatively small, I can only imagine what goes on with bigger deals. Shady business practices should not be supported. There are plenty of dealers who operate with integrity -- unfortunately, this is not one of them. This is more of the iceberg...

I purchased a new Yamarin 80 DC, Yamaha F300 outboard, and trailer from Complete Marine in November…read more2025. More than seven months later, I still cannot legally use the boat because Complete Marine has failed to complete the title and registration process. This is the worst purchasing experience I have ever had. According to Complete Marine's own emails, my registration paperwork was not even submitted for approximately five months after I purchased the boat. When it finally was submitted, it was rejected for multiple deficiencies, including sending the trailer paperwork to the wrong Texas agency. The trailer application was later rejected again because Complete Marine failed to include required dealer documentation. Throughout this process I received one inconsistent explanation after another. The delay was blamed on a "funding issue." Then I was told they were waiting for paperwork in the mail--even though they already had the rejection letter by email. I was also told the trailer had to be completed before the boat paperwork could move forward, despite Texas telling me otherwise. Even more concerning, Complete Marine's finance manager repeatedly made written statements that were inconsistent with later-documented events. For example, he told me on April 29 that my paperwork was already "at the Texas DMV." Later emails from Complete Marine's own title company indicate the trailer paperwork was not actually submitted until weeks later. I have continued making payments on a six-figure boat that I cannot legally use. Most recently, I was stopped by law enforcement and warned not to operate the boat again until it is properly registered. The boat itself is outstanding. My complaint is entirely about Complete Marine's handling of the sale after they had my money. Every significant factual statement in this review is supported by emails, text messages, purchase documents, and correspondence in my possession. I hope no other customer experiences what I have.
