Knowledgeable The staff here is very knowledgeable on their product and they have a wide selection of motors and parts. They have a large service station and storage area as well.

My family has used vans for more years than I’ve been alive. In 2018 I brought them our eight horse Johnson motor to get fixed over $650 later they said it was fixed.

Amazingly knowledgable and friendly service. They make getting boat motor parts TOO easy!!
bought a 9.9 tohatsu here couldn't be happier with it and my sales rep
