They are like a family" happy" there and they treated me as such. The service requested on my boat was prompt and timely. They could have taken advantage of a couple of things but simply corrected them at no cost to me and showed me how to correct them myself in the future. I showed up early to drop my boat off, there were workmen already there who had no problem dealing with me before the place even opened. Hell they even gave me a jump when my truck didn't start, with no rolling of the eyes. Dealing with poor service and miserable people constantly, makes one a cynic but Outboard Specialties brings back hope. I've dealt with them in the past with the purchase of parts for the boat. They were nice and accommodating then as they are now. The real deal

He quoted us a price that was higher for the initial cleaning than for subsequent cleanings. He told us if the zincs needed to be changed we would be charged for the zincs but the labor for changing the zincs would be free. It was determined that the trim tab zincs and the shaft zincs needed to be replaced, but his divers said they couldn't remove them. So DJ came out several days later and replaced them. Then he sent us an invoice charging us for his labor! We didn't feel like we were responsible for, nor should we pay for, his workers' ineptness. After the second cleaning he sent us an invoice at the initial higher first cleaning rate. When I pointed that out, he provided a corrected invoice. When DJ installed the new zincs he left the old trim tab zincs on the dock, but didn't leave the old shaft zincs on the dock. When we asked why not, he said it was because there weren't any zincs on the shafts. We found that to be suspicious because we had witnessed them being installed just several months earlier during a haul out. At the next bottom cleaning DJ said his divers would take photos of the zincs. When they showed up, they said both of their cameras were broken. So we loaned them our GoPro to take the photos. They only took pictures of the trim tab zincs, but not the shaft zincs. So I donned a mask with my GoPro and dived under the boat to see for myself. The old shaft zincs were still on the shafts along with the new ones. So DJ had lied about there not being any previous shaft zincs. When I asked him about this, he got all pissed off and said he didn't want to work for us anymore! If you are going to hire him our advice is: Grab a mask and verify their work yourself underneath the boat before paying them.

I was, however, lucky enough at one point to finally catch someone in and though I happen to like dogs, I'm not so sure they should have the run of an office space, but the person I met was pleasant and nice. I explained my problem, being with a marine GPS unit. He kindly explained what might what he thought might be the nature of the problem, asked me to check out of few things then call in to set up a repair appointment aboard my boat. Accordingly I did check the things out he mentioned, phoned him back but said he couldn't set anything up any specific repair time at the moment but would phone me back to arrange it for it on a Thursday or Friday of that week. Well, as is rather typical with how thing go in South Florida when someone says they'll phone you back, they often don't, and he didn't. So, after both of his suggested appointment dates had pretty much passed and no call, I drove back to his office and again no one except the two dogs were there. When someone operating a business fails to do what they say they are going to do such as phoning back, have a closed office with no door notes or indications of when their office might be open and two suggested appointment dates missed, such begins to raise serious questions of reliability in my mind so I generally go looking elsewhere, which in this case I did. Since they didn't perform any of the services I wanted them to perform, I can't comment on the quality of their work, but I can comment on the manner in which they seem to operate their business, which is a flat out Eek! I won't be back. One Star, which is in fact one star more than they deserve.
