Megrew's Boats, Inc.

Mike and Elaine are great. Brought my Whaler in to get outfitted for a new motor. Very fair pricing and attention to detail was appreciated. The project was completed when they said it would be. Please shop local, it makes a difference Kerry!

Good News: Elaine does know her stuff. Bad News: She’s short tempered and once your money is in the register that’s that. Bought a “freshly tuned” used engine from her, took it to my boat, and it wouldn’t run well. Took it back, asked for the carb to be cleaned out (at my expense). Got the longest song and dance about the fact that her mechanic was backlogged for weeks, so I said “ok”, I’ll leave it until he’s done, and we agreed that I could pick it up in 2 weeks. Called the agreed on morning and was told that he hadn’t started in it yet but would “when he gets in about ten”. Went to pick it next day and got an even longer song and dance that I had somehow contaminated the engine with bad fuel, and basically “tough” and that they weren’t going to fix it. After -literally- fighting her to get the engine out of the shop and into my truck: Took it home, pulled the carb myself, dropped the bowl, and found OLD RUST in the bottom of the bowl, from the “freshly gone thru” engine that I’d bought two weeks before. Tossed a new carb on it (thanks to Amazon), and it’s perfect. Rebuilt the other one as a spare. Bottom line? ZERO interest in taking any responsibility for anything, “the customer is always wrong”. Honestly… just stay away. This place will be out of business soon enough, the reason being the date printed on Elaine’s drivers license in the DOB field. Cranky doesn’t describe it.

Bought an overpriced gas can and it’s been nothing but junk, leaks everywhere, so annoying. But the staff was alright when bought, so for that they get an extra star. But not happy over paying for a junk can, that I can’t return.

As you can see from the before and after pictures, the work done on my Hobie Pro Angler was amazing. I couldn't have asked for better. It looks brand new. I asked for this work to get done during a very busy part of the year and Elaine was able to accommodate me. Mike did an excellent job as you can see in the photos. I would highly recommend their products and services.

I LOVE Megrew’s. I cannot say enough positive things about Elaine. To those leaving negative reviews- I ask yourself to look inward and also recognize that we are not all perfect and have off days. Yes- my main Hobie dealer is in VA- but Elaine is always happy to help me out. Always looking to see what she can put together for me, see what is in stock in her shop. They have one of the best selections of Hobie product IN STORE! Did you have to wait seven months for a vessel? Are you STILL waiting for your order? Welcome to the current state of boat manufacturing. And it isn’t just Hobie. Every dealer is doing their best, they take orders on good faith, truly believing they can be fulfilled. Well done Megrew’s. My (Hobie) hats off to you
