Rank Boat dealers in SWLA.....

[B-Stealth]

Just had my first experience with Harolds Marine off Lincon road in LC; week and a half turn around and very good price. He was also very friendly. I will find the ticket and post his contact info.

I had used another mechanic for the last 8 years but I lost my patience with him.

Harold does great work @ a fair price.

Harold does very good work and in a timely manner. I have been dealing with him for 6 yrs.

Jerry on the other hand is the biggest A$$h--- that I have ever met!!!! PERIOD!!!!

I think anywhere in Louisiana would make a great place for a marine dealer.
We have acquiesced to poor service.

I can tell you that after close to 22 years owning boats. NO DEALER operates to the standard I have to everyday to MY customer.

Days to have things resolved......hours to have a call returned???

I would be second tier in my business.

NOT a dealer, but Master Marine in Laffy is the bomb..........Billy has taken care of me from day 1.........ya'll ever see the Seinfeld episode when the mechanic steals Jerrys car b/c hes not taking care of it right?? That's Billy........He was mad at me last time I went B/C i hadn't washed My boat..............It was SNOWING the day I dropped it off, but to him that was no excuse............He's meticulous when it comes to his customers..............Last I talked to him, he wasnt taking anymore customers, but I'd get on the waiting list if I could.............Tim

Love Jerry's but CS is lacking, never brought my boat to Lake Area but all those guys are really nice and helpful.

For Me:

(Dealer - Products - opinion)

1 - Lake Area - Suzuki, Blue Wave, Champion - imho, best customer service, but I personally don't really like any of their boats

2 - Yamaha Shop - Yamaha, Blazer Bay - never really dealt with them, but have heard mostly good

3 - Jerry's Marine - Merc & Yamaha, Nautic Star, Frontier, Blackjack, Shearwater - great products, but lacking on the customer service

4 - Tracker Marine - Mercury, Mako - clueless

I have been dealing with Jerry's for years. My Dad bought from Clay's which was Jerry's dad. I know how they work over there so I am used to dealing with them. Never really had and major issues with them.

When I had a Skeeter bass boat and a Blazer Bay I dealt with the Yamaha Shop and they were really good with me also.

Bought a Xpress from H&M in Crowley. There CS is as probably the worse of everyone I have dealt with but he always has the best price.
