I'm so glad I called Bay Area Marine Services. Luis and Alison responded immediately to my call…read more I needed to replace my transmission and Luis and his assistant were at my boat in 48 hours. Luis is a master mechanic. He's easy to work with and he is most professional. In the end, he had to pull the engine and I was impressed with how carefully he did that. He really knows his trade. Alison cares about clients and replies to your call, email or text in a timely manner. So, you don't have to wait long to hear back from them. In addition to being a great company they are affordable. They don't up sell and when they are there they check out the whole engine, not just what you asked them to look at. I found that most reassuring. They are respectful of your boat and are very clean when they work. I highly recommend Luis, Alison and Bay Area Marine

Four years earlier we did a haul out and were very happy with the work done by Andy and his crew so we returned a second time. Andy was communicative about projects, updated us frequently and was quickly available if we had any questions. His crew did excellent work on our ark including welding, sanding, painting and other necessary repairs. They transported and hauled the boat with no issues and returned it to the slip safely. Five out of five stars for Andy and his team.

My engine had been underwater from the prior owner, and it was not looking promising. Bill was very upfront about the fact that he would try to "put himself in my shoes" and figure out if it was possible to repair. He took a very thoughtful approach to what he would do to assess whether it was able to be fixed before digging in much further. He was very conscious of not having me spend too much if it wasn't able to be fixed. I was amazed and very pleased when Bill called to let me know that the engine was back to running. Not only this but it now starts first pull, and runs like a top, I have to imagine as good or better than it did new. I have had Marine work done by a variety of folks over the years, and Bill was one of the most thoughtful, qualified, and reasonably priced folks I've met. I highly recommend.

Worst I've ever experienced. I was called three times during my workday so they could tell me nothing about the status of my boat being repowered. Nobody knows anything without tugging on the owners sleeve. Poor business model In my opinion and experience. I was also over charged by almost 1000$ over the estimate, which was high. When the estimate included additional labor line to "remove old motor and prep transom" When the motor was already removed. Overall bad experience and I would not recommend them to anyone. They stated they would have it washed before pick up after water testing. They did not, there was trash and debris in my boat from the work. They also changed out my motor mount plate from perfect good factory condition to a POS with their logo on it, without my consent. On top of all that, the new manual for the outboard they installed was tossed in a hatch and water logged. Do yourself a favor and take your marine work elsewhere.
