I'm a different Dan P. than the one giving a rating on 9/28/21. I have been at this Marina for a…read morecouple years now and have had none of the issues described in the negative comments here. The dock crew is extremely professional at all times and Jason clearly manages the dock activities very well. I've seen several Credit Card Captains come rolling in there and treat them like slave labor and they have continually stayed professional. The parts department (Rachael), service coordinator (Mandy), and Office Manager (Billi Jo) always stand out as customer friendly. I have 110% confidence in Greg if I need electronics installed or repaired. I was concerned about service labor rates when Legendary took over. However, the service dept seems very conscientious about how many hours are charged and my service cost has remained relatively the same since I've been there.

Bilge pump not working hoses not reconnected Took on water and boat died. No power ran to bilge pump hoses completely not connected to bilge. After calling service manger he told us to bring it back in and he would talk to his manager to see what they could do. Good luck do not know how to get it there. They charged insurance company for work they didn't perform and also us. Charged over $200 just to clean battery terminals that were charged for first time and didn't do We put boat in water and almost sunk. They need better mechanics and service manager that has knowledge. I will NEVER recommend this place to anyone. After insurance I am out over $4k. Still working on boat

I recently purchased a boat in Pensacola. My broker Terry Myers suggested after my sea trial to…read morehave the boat hauled out at Pelicans Perch Marina. All of the staff at Pelicans Perch were very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful during my stay at the boatyard. I had a bottom job, fiberglass repairs, and some mechanical repairs performed while my boat was at Pelicans Perch Marina. The next time you need a bottom job or any other repairs that require a haul-out, I highly recommend Pelicans Perch Marina! By the way, they make a great cup of coffee. Thanks, Ladies and gents.

We stayed at Pelicans Perch for about a week during January. The facilities are by no means new,…read morebut the staff is so kind and helpful you quickly forget you ever cared about floating docks or new power plug-ins. One gentleman was nice enough to drive me around looking for an outboard motor when I needed a ride, and the management helped work out a fair compromised rate when we realized we had to stay for longer than we planned as we did necessary work on the motor. Speaking of doing work on the boat, there are a number of very useful professional metal fabricators, a canvas shop, and expert diesel mechanics within a few minutes walk. Grocery stores are within a mile or so, as are Tippy's Tavern, West Marine (closing this month unfortunately), and theres another restaurant called The Oarhouse five minutes away by dinghy. Pelican's Perch was a GREAT find for us, and I very highly recommend it for anyone on a budget needing to do work on their boat.

I…read morecalled needing a very specific remanufactured powerhead (engine block) and spoke with Jim, who told me he had what I needed and would send it to me right away, if I wired money into his account. I did as he requested, but when the powerhead arrived, not only was it the wrong year and model, but it wasn't a remanufactured powerhead at all. He sent me a used, messed up powerhead. There was carbon on the piston heads (from use), and old parts inside. This was not the remanufactured powerhead I ordered. I called jim immediately, and he argued with me, saying he sent the right head. I had to have my Tech call him and explain the differences in the models...and he was supposed to be an expert? He said he would not give a refund unless I pay to have send him the wrong head back. I'm already out $6,300! Then he tried to send another wrong unit, saying it would work fine - even though it was not the model I bought. I normally check people out before sending money, but he recently changed the company name.

Why do you think he changed his company name? He is a good talker so please dont let him talk you into anything. He will say he fixed your boat and when it doesnt work he will blame you for putting bad gas in the boat. He will say he fouind water in your gas.
