I had my 200hp Yamaha at another shop for lots of money and didnt get it repaired. I was about to buy a new one but decided to give these guys a cpl hours to see if it was something simple the other repair shop missed. He had it off and on for over a year and told me to come get your boat its ready 7 times and I never got out of the harbor!They figured out what he couldnt in 2 hrs. They are trained professionals. They return calls, they update,they deliver on promises.I have the same 200hp Yamaha and am happy to have my boat back on the water!!Dave Garrett Bret and crew are The best, trustworthy and efficient.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
These guys do great work and you can trust them. Would recommend to my grandpa
My family and I live aboard our sailboat - so having a reliable outboard is important to us. Because of this, we purchased a Yamaha 6hp Outboard thru Monterey Bay Marine.Within 6 weeks I had 2 completely separate issues with the engine which their technicians were unable to diagnose. The first was the bushings that hold the fuel tank to the engine. These were wearing through within 3-4 weeks. They have now been replaced twice, but the techs still cant explain why they are wearing through so quickly, showering the inside of the cowling in rubber dust. They have no solution for me, other than continuing to replace these bushings every month thru warranty.Most importantly, though, the engine catastrophically overheated, melting the collar between the head and shaft. Their techs couldnt explain the overheat - they replaced the melted collar, tried running it in a test tank, and when they were unable to reproduce within an hour, told me to come back if it overheats again.I called Yamaha, and they told me that they wont work with me, and I needed to work with the dealer. I tried to work with the owner to get a replacement unit. He said why should I take a loss on this?Great service from the in-store team and techs. Terrible issue resolution from the owner, Dave.Buy your engines elsewhere, folks - these guys do not stand by their products or customers.
Dave and the team at Monterey Bay Marine have always done a fast, thorough job on my outboard and have always stood behind their work. They are honest and walked me through the options available to fix my boat then performed the work quickly and precisely, without going over the estimate. This is the only place that I go to get work or maintenance done on my boat.
I work here...!
Outboard wasnt starting so I brought it here. Came back faster and cheaper than expected.
Best motors in town
