This place is a joke! The owner testified in court that my boat had an illegal fuel pump that bypassed the mechanical pump and the carb. needed a rebuild because the accelerator pump did not work. He also claims that he works on Mercruiser but after some questioning he admitted in court that he stepped away from Mercruiser 8 years ago!!! Cost me the sale of a boat. To make it worse, when I got the boat back, it started right up, there is no mechanical fuel pump (like he claims the electrical one bypassed) and the accelerator pump worked fine... only issue is his mechanic didn't put a spark plug wire back on and I could clearly hear it arcing, reconnected the spark plug wire and the boat runs excellent! He tried to say that the transom has a separation too and the boat is not water tight... boat doesn't leak a drop! No separation found. All in all he blatantly lied in court and gave exorbitant prices for repairs that his shop faked. I also have all of the issues he claims the boat had on video clearly showing there is not an issue and I'd be happy to show it to anyone who asks!!! If you want to be screwed over and lied to then take it here, if you want a HONEST upstanding mechanic that knows what they are doing and wont cause problems to charge you for then go somewhere else!!!!

WARNING. DO NOT TAKE YOUR BOAT HERE!!! If you need any work done other than normal service they will not know how to do it. They say they are an authorized Volvo Penta Dealer (which they may have been at one time). I do not believe they are still qualified to be one. They had my boat for 5 weeks to replace a power trim pump. After they repeatedly gave me the run-around I finally decided to pay for the part and diagnostics and take my boat to another shop. I took it to Olivers Marine in Madera and they fixed it in 1 day charging me 200 labor. Adams was going to charge 500 dollars labor. Take my advice. Unless you don't mind leaving your boat outside for weeks until they can get to it, then take it to a shop where you can get reputable service. THESE GUYS CAN NOT BE TRUSTED. FYI...They do not have the mechanic that they advertise on their web page. Jeff doesn't work there anymore. Also, I have heard that they had their OMC certification pulled recently. I'll bet Volvo Penta is next...

THEY R THE BEST AT WHAT THEY DO. I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY BOAT TO THEM FOR 5 YEARS . MY BROTHER ALSO TAKES HIS BOAT THIER .WE DO NOT HAVE ANY THING BAD TO SAY .THEY GO OVER AND BEYOND FOR US . THE PRICES AND WORK ARE ARE THE BEST AROUND .ALSO ME BEING IN A WHEELCHAIR THEY MAKE IT VERY EASY TO DEAL WITH THEM . FROM GETTING A BATTERY PUT IN TO GETTING THE OVERDRIVE FIX .THEY R THE BEST !!!!!!!!! SEE U SOON
