    I had my Honda EM 6500 SX generator serviced (tune-up and oil change). Helpful staff, excellent work, fair price, and quick turnaround.

    BEWARE - Do Not do business with this desperate company. You will regret every minute of it. I…read moreleft my 33' boat there two seasons ago and it was not properly winterized. I lost two brand new batteries, two bilge pumps, a water pump, burst water line, and the boat was filthy when I picked it up. He took zero responsibility for the damage and during my dispute of the bill, the owner actually showed up at my house and caused a scene in front of my family and neighbors. I had to call the police to remove him. Fair Warning

    I brought my classic banana boat BW outrage here last winter; the hull needed some work, the gas…read moretank was leaking (which I did not know at the time), none of the gauges worked, and the 25 year old motor was not working. Tom Duce assured me that he had years of experience working on "old mercuries" and that he would have no problem tuning it up. The hull work looked good, and the mechanic Tim installed new gauges which I bought for a better price than he would get. He missed the leaky gas tank initially, and then installed the new tank that I ordered from Florida. So far, so good. Unfortunately, we both talked ourselves into working on the motor which he initially put 1.5G into. When he gave me the boat back after having it for 4 months, I tried starting it in the driveway - didn't start because of not having a fuel bulb on the new circuit. Simple mistake? Ok, so I took it back, Tim put on a new bulb. Didn't start. Now, it looks like more electrical parts are fried and need replacing. Why wasn't the motor checked at that point? Tim showed me the cracked insulation that apparently caused the short and the "fry-ing" -- why was this not noted before? Questions and bills were mounting, but I again put trust in owner Tom and mechanic Tim. Two weeks later I was shown the motor spinning in a tub of water for a full 2 minutes, and handed a bill for another 2G, including 9 hours of labor! A few days later I put it in the water -- it didn't get 1/4 mile out before the motor stopped and would not start again. This time I called in exasperation and was told that he would make a house call (45 minutes away) with his mechanic Tim. Never showed up. I left several messages that were not returned. When he finally answered my phone call, I asked for some labor costs back for a motor that obviously wasn't fixed. When I told him that he needed a higher threshold of safety to assure that a motor was working, he asked if I was done "blabbering." I took the boat to a different mechanic who diagnosed yet another electrical problem. I don't fault Tom Duce for an aging motor. I do hold him responsible for releasing a boat that had not been tested, for not returning my many calls and messages, and for failing to take responsibility for a job that was poorly done. By the way, both Tom and Tim smoke almost continuously. Between drags of cigarettes and the hunting around for the right tool amidst the mess that I saw, it is any wonder that either one gets any work done - and I wonder what the labor costs were really for. Do yourself a favor. Stay away.

    I dealt directly with the owner, Dave McShane, who is a licensed Sea Fox dealer. He reached out to…read moreme on having a trolling motor installed on my 2023 Sea Fox 2280 Commander as he was referred by M&M Marine where I recently purchased the boat. He told me he would look into the types of trolling motors that are most commonly installed and would get back to me. He never did this, told me to bring the boat to his location, and that he would install a trolling motor. No estimates from him. He placed the onus on me to tell him the type of trolling motor. After several emails, where I included Sea Fox in the email threads, and also did research on my own and then recommended a product to him, he then refused my business and told me to go elsewhere. I have had boats well over 50 years and this is the worst experience I have ever encountered with a marine business that services boats.

    Have to agree with reviews of Matt K and Will S. Not a good experience. I went there in 2022 to…read morelook at Sea Fox boats, which I first saw earlier in the year in Charleston, SC. Well built. Left because I found Dave McShane rude and condescending when answering my questions. I eventually found a 2019 Sea Fox in CT in excellent shape in spring of 2023 and bought it. But you need to get parts from your State's authorized dealer. Sea Fox will not take orders directly. I got a part last year from a young man on their staff, very nice, no issues. This year I called for a replacement T-top anchor light. Rosa McShane took my order and said she would have it shipped directly to my house, since I'm 70 miles roundtrip from their site, and it was an easy fix. She took my CC info and sent me an email saying it would be 2 weeks. 4 weeks later, no part, so I called and Rosa was 'sorry to hear that and she would talk to Sea Fox in Charleston when they (Sea Fox staff) return on Monday July 7th.' Not being able to go out at night fishing for the past month, and wanting to go out on the boat for the fireworks on July 4th, (hundreds of boats out, so an anchor light is a must, especially with the harbormaster!) I had my marina put in an OEM light on top of the T-top. Very nice, more solid than the original. I called Rosa and told her that, and that I wished to be refunded. She said I would need to get the part first and send it to them before I got a refund, but she would also check and see if Sea Fox sent it to them instead of me. Well I obviously had no part to send back (at my expense!), and would I ever get it? Turns out Sea Fox did send it to McShane Yacht Sales, so they had it, but never called me. I had to call after a month, then they looked around and found it. She said she could overnite it to me (my expense, and I already paid shipping), but I already had the new one. So it was In her possession anyway...but she told me Sea Fox charges them a $20 restocking fee and I'd have to pay that. I asked her why I would need to pay a $20 restock fee for a part I never received, and why wouldn't they be calling Sea Fox and asked for a waiver on it since Sea Fox screwed up, not me, nor McShane YS for that matter. She said she'd have Dave call me. Long story short, Dave McShane said I was being unreasonable fighting over $20. Wasn't he doing the same? Wouldn't he fight for a customer and tell Sea Fox they messed up and the customer, nor he the dealer should pay them $20 for their mistake? I was hoping so. Nope, he told me "You can call Trump!" (???). Today I got a refund check for the part LESS the $20. I'm tempted to go to Small Claims court, where McShane or Sea Fox Boats would also cover the $40.00 filing fee, and you can also get triple damages for an issue not resolved in 30 days. Dave M. told me 'fine, I have a piece of paper here that shows you ordered a Special order part from us'. So what? A light is a 'special order'? Doesn't matter what kind of order it is. I didn't get what i was promised in 2 weeks. He also said 'you can come down here and get your part', and that's when he hung up on me. But I'll just post this review here, and a few other sites as well. Lesson learned. Tom H

    Great crew at Brewer Street Boatworks, they have been super helpful with everything from a boat…read morepurchase to helping me become a better boater. It all started when I was searching for a center console and Skip, the owner, was brokering a boat for a client of his. He was up front and honest with me about the pros and cons of the boat, and made sure that I realized it was a true fishing boat. Skip and his team went out of their way to make my buying experience easy. From the survey and sea trial to the delivery he worked with me and my wife to ensure we were informed and answered any and all questions that you would expect from first time boat owners like us. The delivery was a chance for me to help pilot the boat from its home port to my mooring. Skip had his son go along with me to coach and guide me on the voyage. It was a great trip and I really appreciated the help. We will definitely look to Skip and his team to help us once we graduate from our current boat to a bigger one.

He replied, "OHH WOWWWW you can afford more than that you are driving a Maserati"!!!! I was like WTF! This was totally unprofessional and rude. He acted like a total jerk and kept bring up my car! Anyway, we left that place and headed for a bite in Newport. We asked a few people in the restaurant about Skip from Brewer Street. They all said RUNNNNNNNNNNNN he is not friendly and truly a condescending man! I will never go back to that place again! Just ask the locals about SKIP!
