I have a 60 year old, classic runabout boat that needed to have the original seats restored. Simply put - Shumakes was the only shop in the Tampa area that I visited which was clean, professional, and where I felt the staff were actually interested in my project. They took the time to go over a ton of options, kept me in the loop throughout the restoration, and delivered several days ahead of schedule. And all of that at a lower cost than any other shop around - no lie. The craftsmanship was wonderful and the result speaks for itself. You can see the before and after pictures of the seats under their photos on this Google Maps listing - the grey and white bench seats. Theyve definitely earned a repeat customer.
I missed 2 appointments to have a custom cover made for my 29 regulator. The guys and gals at work pitched in to have one made for me as a retirement gift. Needless to say the 3rd appointment wasnt missed. The quality of this cover is second to none. Everyday I look at this work of art with amazement. Wash it after fishing, cover it and you are done til the next time. Superb customer service and attention to detail. Your goto for well constructed quality boat covers. Thanks!
Excellent workmanship and great cover . First cover lasted over 7 years in the blazing sun . On my second cover by shumates .
Great cover, perfect fit, custom made for our 22 Pathfinder, and at a fair price for quality work.
He designs and builds great custom canvas boat tops, spray hoods, console covers, and more. His work lasts and comes at a very reasonable, fair price. Hes been in the marine industry for over 30 years and is knowledgeable and experienced. He makes great guides for boat trailers too.
Peter is first class, does excellent work and is very reasonable. I designed a splash guard for my Hobie TI and I had to take it back a couple of times to tweek it. Peter was enthusiastic about getting it right and worked with me until it did what I wanted. Now I have a great splash guard and the craftsmanship is excellent.
A true craftsman. Great experience at Shumakes. They truly make you feel comfortable and appreciated as a customer no matter how large or small the project. I rarely write reviews of businesss, but after leaving with my repaired trailer cover, I felt the need to share how great they are. I had plenty of time to kill so enjoyed watching my repair done on the spot. Like I said. A true craftsman. I will continue to bring projects large and small to Shumakes for the service and a great history lesson from the owner. I can not say enough good things about this place.
I have had my boat cover for a couple years. We had a foot of snow this weekend in the north GEORGIA mountains and with a foot of snow on the cover all is fine.
Pete does great work that stands the test of time, salt, and wind. I have loved the work he has done on by boat covers and biminis. Pete has done at least 4 boats for me over the years, and all have been great.
Shumakes does beautiful work. My first boat cover from them lasted almost 10 years and this new 2nd one looks even nicer. I highly recommend them for their quality professional workmanship. A well fitting custom cover has kept my boat looking great!
He is a artist and treats you like a king with great prices he made a custom. 10 canvas top for my boat work of art.
I took my dowco bass boat cover to them today that needed a repair and they did an excellent job!
Best boat cover place in Tampa bay. Get one before he retires
Pete knows what is doing. Great service at a fair price.
