Jim really saved us today! We had our boat getting repairs done at another shop, and our trailer…read moreended up being unusable after we dropped off our boat due to some rusting on some important parts, leaving us in a major pinch to get our boat out from the shop and back into the water and with no working trailer. We were on a time crunch, and Jim made it happen with less than 24 hours notice to get us a trailer to get our boat out of the shop and into our wet slip. He went above and beyond with taking my calls and helping us launch the boat. Not only that, but he is also as nice as can be! I can't thank you enough Jim, you're amazing!

This is a review I am so happy to give!…read more I just bought my first boat - a 14' Livingston - from a friend, with zero experience, and needed a number of repairs to make it seaworthy. I called PDF and spoke to Jim, the owner, who told me that their schedule was absolutely packed, and that they have a huge waitlist; which was very disappointing to hear, since my family was coming in from abroad in a few weeks, and I was very much hoping to being able to take them out on the boat when they were here. That's when the "dedicated small business owner" came out. With a bit of back-end gymnastics (and a small expression of concern that he was biting off more than he could chew) Jim managed to work me into the tiniest gap in his schedule. He evaluated the damage, gave a detailed overview of the work that needed to be done, and even proposed some sort of barter to help cover the costs! (I'm a small business owner myself) From beginning to end, Jim was the consummate professional - patient, fair-mined, helpful - going above and beyond to make this work for me. And the work completed was phenomenal: the boat looked better than when the original owner bought it! I could not have gotten a better first-boat repair experience. Wonderful work, and exactly the type of service I so appreciate in fellow business owners. PDF just earned a loyal customer!

I actually used Donald several of times but forgot to leave a review. Once was for my infinity gear…read morewas stuck he was able to order the part and fix it asap. He also helped my husband too on his truck and this time my rear signal and lights were out. He was able to diagnose the issue with the bulbs as well as explain what went wrong. I had one of the bulbs correct but still needed another one and he was equipped with the missing bulb I needed. I got my full value in services needed. Very reasonably priced! He was knowledgeable and very professional. Communication was very good and I just need one more thing fixed and he will be called to finish the job (waiting on a part). The HUGE convenience is that he's mobile and comes to you. This saved me from a potential traffic ticket if I didn't get those lights fixed. Mahalo Donald (DKG auto trucking services). God bless

We found the most amazing mobile mechanic super close to home. True Aloha Spirit from a honest…read morehardworking local who know was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We had called inquiring about his services and explained briefly over the phone what the problem was with our truck and that we wanted to have him take a look to see what could be done to fix it He was informative, explained his diagnostic fee, sent us an invoice via email and scheduled an appointment in just a few days. He also explained the diagnostic fee went towards any repair balance, which I thought was such a phenomenal thing!! His communication was completely thorough letting us know when he was nearby, and felt like throughout the entire process he constantly communicated with us next steps, status etc. Communication is a HUGE factor to me, in exceptions customer service because it keeps the consumer in the loop and establishes a firm amount of trust in someone doing a service for you. Prior to him coming out we provided over the phone make model VIN year and Donald explained he was going to do some analysis on the car prior to coming out to see usual car maintenance by this age of this vehicle etc. I have NEVER been asked that for any type of repair work, at any shop etc. The willingness to do research on this specific car, made me feel like he was customizing this experience just for us!! Who does that? We were already off to an amazing start!! Upon arrival to our home Donald was completely thorough, we explained what we experienced while driving the truck. He briefly discussed a few possible issues it could have , then jacked it up to take a look. He ordered the parts we agreed upon a return time and true to his word he returned and repaired our truck. We test drove it to ensure the issue was resolved and it was like there was never a issue in our truck to begin with I find it extremely hard to find auto mechanics to be honest and not charge an arm and leg for there services and I am so happy to have found Donald's services. If I could give him 12 starts out of 10 I would!! He was honest, knowledgeable, informative, and the most important thing was the job was completed and our cars working perfectly!! Can't thank you enough Donald, going to be recommending your services to anyone who may need it!!!

Yes, I totally love this person and service!…read more My car temperature was reading "hot" needed anti freeze and Ken happened to be in the parking lot of Autozone Salt Lake. He helped me out and taught me a few things: put antifreeze slowly and have your car running, turn on your A/C so that the antifreeze can circulate and gas the car a few times. He told me to keep the car running and the temperature of the car should go down. Phew! He checked it and the temperature went down! Such a blessing and very honest person! Besides working on boats, he also works on automobiles. Very hospitable, honest and truly a humble and kind person! He did not charge me, but truly a person who wants to help and spread blessings all around! Use his service for repairs! Very professional and his service is truly valuable!!!

They will not let me tie up my dingy to any of their available outlets with cleats to dock and then walk to use their store! Why? The only other way I would arrive being I have no car, is park my dingy and walk 2000 feet to their Convenience Store. Or just take a Uber and minas well just go Walmart. They have that dock shop but us sailboat people can't arrive on boats?

First of all, the crew on the travel lift were obsessive in positioning the straps where they would not damage my boat. We were right on schedule with the pick, I had the tarps up within an hour or so. And the tarps they provided for dust containment were virtually new, in good shape, easy to handle and ample sized. I was ready to start work by lunch time. I easily completed my haulout within my 5 day schedule, as the yard crew took care of my needs such as moving pads, and prepping for the launch. The yard crew are calm and professional. Of course, you can always with the cost was less. But when I look at the scope of the operation, I am grateful we can haul at all in today's inflated world. A lot of labor went into my haul and launch, plus there is environmental mitigation, and expensive equipment. My haulout went smooth and fast, and I am grateful for that. Aloha, Mark

I normally avoid windward boats because the parts guys that worked there had a lot of attitude…read more However i called in yesterday looking for a part and was pleasantly surprised when the person on the phone was not only nice but knew how to find a not so common part. I believe his name was Alex. He took the time to text me a parts diagram to make sure we were talking about the same part for the correct year motor. He indeed identified the correct part and advised me he had one in stock. unlike past experiences where the guy in the parts department would tell you bring in the old part so they can match it up. What a disservice and waste of time. I went in and Alex had the part waiting. Please pay this guy properly so you won't have to hire donkeys anymore...

We got a re-power (new motor) through him. While we had multiple quotes from shops all over the island some being way cheaper with rebates we decided to come back and spend the money with Paul as his work is outstanding. He's very honest trustworthy and we will continue to support our local business' in the area. We always bring our boat here for any type of work, diagnosis, repairs, upgrades etc. One of the plus things after the new motor is that he wanted us to take our boat out for a water test with one of his mechanics to make sure the prop pitch was correct and everything was good to go before letting it go. That right there sealed the deal for us and will always come back and reccomend Paul.
