    Never, never, never take your boat here. I bought my boat from Oasis years ago and they did all the…read morerepairs and maintenance on it since purchase. Until recently. Although I'd had some problems with minor damage to my boat while in their care (such as a broken bracket and damage to my trailer so I could no longer attach the wheel to the crank base), last summer was the show stopper. When I went to get my boat, I saw a piece of my orange sidelamp on the step of the trailer. The sidelamp was smashed. I found the other pieces of the lamp nearby. I said "what happened here?" "That was like that when it came in," the mechanic replied. "How come I found all the pieces here on the mud? How could this piece of plastic survive a 12 mile drive sitting on an open step.?'" Long and short, they apologized and said they would order another light which I could install. "It's easy," he said. Hum, sounds like the job for the the guy that broke the light, but I let it go. It has been has been 6 months. No light. They did replace a broken bimini bracket which also I noticed, after first denying it was broken. I decided to pay my bill, $575 for an oil change, new water pump, and a new blower fan. Ouch. By the way, I had just paid another $500 bill for plugs and wires. This semed high so I wanted to look at the bill, but no receipt. "Sorry, our printing isn't working, but we can send you one later." Gave them my fax number. 6 months have passed without a bill, despite calls to them. Voice mail only, of course. After going straight home, and having the boat parked on my seceded rural multi acre lot for a couple days, I noticed a large gouge several feet down the bumper. Fresh chunks of rubber exposed, and a gouge as clean as a whistle. No dust, dirt or aging. I called Oasis. "Nothing could do that here, must have been someone at your place. " "I'll have to train my mecahnic to note this damages when it comes in here," the owner scoffed. Well nothing could have done it at my place in the place it was parked between bushes where there is no passage and no traffic. When I went back to Oasis, I found plenty of places where boats could be damaged as they are moved from place to place, such as the garage door brackets where boats are backed in. And guess what? While I was there, I saw the mechanic crash a boat and trailer into another boat trailer. It gets better. A few more days later, I was on the lake with my quiet new blower fan. As the day passed, the blower fan got louder and louder. By our second day on the lake, my new fan was as bad as the one that was replaced. I called. Voice mail, of course. Six months later, no light, no invoice, and no call back.

    Despite the one and only bad review, I took my boat to them, Tom & Tony were friendly and…read moreknowledgeable, the work they did on my boat was routine maintenance, impeller, filters, oil, remove water from my fuel tank etc etc, without asking they informed me of a problem my boat has, fixing would require removal of my 5.7 Mercruiser. However, they were honest enough to tell me I don't need the repair, "just don't leave the engine exhaust pointing upstream", I am a novice boater, they could have got me good. I'm very satisfied with the work that was done And I recommended them to a friend that needed routine maintenance and minor hull repair. He's just as happy as I am with their work. They have gained a loyal customer. Thanks guys!!! Tom Vader

    Absolutely the worst place any consumer or business could take a vehicle. I'm a manager of a home…read moremedical equipment company and needed quick work on a company vehicle. This man had our van for over a month until I had to get it towed to another mechanic. They lied to me and my staff as well as corporate fleet. Then there is the corporate fleet investigation of sercices that were paid for that were not done. Don't take your vehicle there business.or personal vehicle. Not worth the hassle. I had to select one star but honestly this guy deserves no stars!

    Steer clear of this place. Absolutely the worst. The owner is unprofessional, lazy, deceitful, and…read moreis full of excuses. He thinks a lot of himself and constantly reminds you "how busy" he is. He once said he had to "consult with his advisor." He doesn't return calls or texts (especially when he is on a trip to Vegas and is supposed to be delivering a car). He scammed me out of $2725 for a car he was supposed to fix and sell to me. We initially agreed on $2k. On March 9th I agreed to purchase a "non-operational" car from the owner. Paid him $1k on March 10th as a deposit so he could buy parts for it. We were promised the car at the end of March. On May 3rd, after every excuse known to man and his trip to Vegas, the owner delivered the car and I paid a balance of $1725, thinking the car was in good working order. On May 6th the "check engine" light was on. Owner said it was a "sensor." Don't worry. He would fix that when we got the oil changed after 500 miles. He said there was nothing wrong. On June 1st, the car overheated. Towed it to Midas, They said it needed new brakes, tie rods, rack assembly, spark plugs, two lugs missing from left from wheel, head gasket was "blown..." $2600. On June 9th, owner picked up vehicle to "fix" it. He said he would fix tie rods, spark plugs but the rest of the repairs were not needed. He had told me prior to that, he couldn't get one of the spark plugs off and he would try again when we brought it in for oil change. Later, he insinuated that someone other than him, messed with the spark plug and damaged the one he couldn't get off which just happened to be underneath the head gasket.... Either us or Midas. He also said he ended up fixing the brakes too. Then he texted me that he checked the head gasket (tested it for leaks) and it was fine. On June 28th we picked it up from owner and, the very next day, June 29th, we took it to another auto repair shop. They said the same thing about the head gasket..."overflow tank full of oil with antifreeze (that is why it is overheating), compression gas in cooling system, needs valve job." Owner claims it was fine when "he delivered it." I texted owner and provided a copy of the inspection from the repair shop. I requested he come get the car and refund my money. He refused... "It's a 16 yr old $2k car!" He said, he has already put too much money into the car as it is, and it's not worth it. This is ludicrous because he was the one who came up with the price for us to buy this car. I was hesitant because of the car's condition and mileage. Owner was VERY cavalier about it... how a great mechanic could have the car running like new in no time, mileage on the car means nothing, this is his profession, etc... blah, blah, blah. He had several cars that were not running for various reasons. I chose this particular one and he said he could have it up and running in a couple weeks. He WAS a "friend" of my daughter and she asked me to stop by and look at what he had. I told him my max was $2k and of course later he came up with some sob story and asked for more money so I pad him another $500. Then another $225 for TWO tires. I know I am "out" that money and was scammed. Just want to ensure that it doesn't happen to others.
