Excellent Service and Exceptional Experiences
Sound Boat Works has received a positive feedback from most customers, highlighting their excellent service and exceptional experiences.
Author John Patterson gave a 5-star rating and praised the excellent service on his Volvo Penta powered 2002 Four Winns for many years. Similarly, Paul Gurr also gave a 5-star rating, mentioning exceptional service from Mike and the entire Sound Boat Works team.
A Few Areas for Improvement
However, there are a few areas for improvement, as pointed out by Desperado Ii, who gave a 4-star rating. They noted that the marina is a bit rough around the edges, and the facilities such as restrooms and showers need updating. Additionally, the pathways could use some lighting and repair.
Best Location for Sailing
Despite these minor issues, the docks are in great shape, and they have a full repair service on site with knowledgeable owners and staff. This makes it the best location for sailing, as mentioned by Jonathan Ryeland, who gave a 5-star rating.
Friendly and Considerate Staff
Pedro Papas also gave a 5-star rating, appreciating the friendly and considerate staff. His sailboat motor died, and they were very understanding and helpful, both in person and with his insurance company. They even towed him 12 miles and have been keeping his boat at their dock for two months while he waits for his new engine.
