Just wanted to give a shout out to the guys at Ocean Outboard. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a boat or good service. Way to go!

Welcome smoke eater.

What is your personal experience with Ocean Out Board Marine? Please tell us more. Thanks.

I went there yesterday to pick up my boat that I had just purchased. We took the boat on a trial run and Eric (owner) did not like the way it idled. It seemed to sputter a little bit. Nothing that an average individual like myself would catch. So we took it back and he had his guys work on it, they took it for a run, still did not like the results so he is going to replace some gaskets for me. They just gave me that warm fuzzy feeling. In todays economy it is places like Ocean Outboard that will survive because of their outstanding customer service. They could have just turned the boat over to me and said everything was in perfect working order, and me being a first time boat owne,r would have had no idea. So I just feel they are very reputable and would recommend them to anyone looking to buy or just servicing.

Woo Hoo! Thanks smoke eater! Got pics? Please tell us all about your new fishing machine?

No pics yet. I will have them posted soon! It is a nice one. 2003 22' Sea Hunt Navigator bay series w/150 Yamaha..

Sounds Great some eater. What's her name? What name are you going to be using on the VHF radio? She is going to fly across the water with a 150 HP Yammy!

I'm very happy for you! You can go anywhere in her to chase fishies!

On the water, I'm on board Ye Ole Pirate or Dreams Float. Less of course I sneek aboard other peoples boats when they are not looking. LOL Out Loud!

I look forward to reading your posts and seeing your photos.

O by the way, I agree with you smoke eater, Ocean Outboard Marine is the Best! smile (No affiliation, usual disclaimers, just a very happy, satisfied customer.)

Welcome aboard smoke eater. Wise decision going with Eric. I've been taking my boat to him for years now. Heck of a nice guy and knowledgeable.
