GOOD Based on 77 reviews Posted on Bryan Murphy2025-05-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wanted to say thank you to the team at Dick Sherrer-Marine. After a boating accident in October 2024 that severely damaged my outdrive, I reached out to several local shops, but unfortunately, none seemed interested in helping me, especially since it was a Friday afternoon. Then I spoke with Rafa at Dick Sherrer-Marine, who immediately made a difference. He went out of his way to keep the business open late so I could drop off my boat, which I truly appreciated. Within just a few days, I received a thorough estimate and a clear understanding of the issues with my boat. Navigating the insurance process was a bit of a challenge, but Rafa and his technician were there every step of the way, providing invaluable support and guidance. Living 600 miles away, I was worried about the logistics, but Rafa and his team made everything so much easier for me. I can’t thank them enough for their quality work, dedication, and for going above and beyond to assist me during this tough time. If you’re in need of boating services, I highly recommend Dick Sherrer-Marine!Posted on Bret Pfeifer2025-04-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with Rafa and replacement of my transom assembly and other work on my Mercruiser Bravo 2. Work was completed on time and on budget. Dick Sherrer Marine is the only place I will be taking my boat for work. Highly recommended.Posted on Peter Groves2025-03-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've been working with Rafael and Dick Sherrer Marine for about a year. I'm a multi-boat owner that is rather meticulous in taking care of my boats, both on a trailer and in a saltwater slip. I've had the experience of working with many local South Bay repair shops over the years and seen the changes both good and bad and I'm a loyal customer. My expectations for Marine shop are simple in that I want a fair price for excellent work done in a timely and professional manner with great technicians. All this with advanced estimates communicated with clear expectations for the work to be performed. Unfortunately these days it's a rather a HIGH BAR to meet these consumer objectives however Dick Sherrer Marine met all of those and more. I'd like to recommend Rafael and his crew at Dick Sherrer Marine for all your marine services and expertise as they have not only met but they've exceeded all my expectations. Dick Sherrer Marine has earned my business and their shop is pristine. He's certified in all brands of gas and diesel engines and can deliver your boat back quickly as he has may qualified technicians on staff for all of your marine needs. I wish to also thank Rafa and his team for saving me out a difficult situation with another shop I had worked with for many years.Posted on Anthony Le2025-03-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took my boat in a couple weeks ago Champion 206 /mercury 225 and had some extensive work done Rafa and the crew were super tentative to detail and what I needed to get done I had the boat reupholstered carpet redone, and the motor completely gone through. They got the boat done pretty fast and at a good price point even found some other issues. I didn’t know I had and called me to advised to fix. They are a Mercury dealer so they had everything to Go through the motor parts were not an issue. Took the boat to the lake everything ran great now I’m ready for the summer. It’s nice having a piece of mind that was done correctly by professional techniciansPosted on Andre Negrete2025-02-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best place I always go to Rafa for my service he’s the man!Posted on Jack Bushell2025-02-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been a longtime customer at Dick Sherrer Marine for 10 years now. I repowered my boat with them and have had many service sessions over the years. The ownership switched last year, and I have been very pleased with the new ownership with Rafael and his team. They are very accommodating and offer fair pricing and great service. Just recently, we had some issues with the Mercury SmartCraft system, and Scott, their lead mechanic, worked with me to help resolve the issue. He is a stand-up guy and very knowledgeable. They went the extra mile! It’s hard to find good mechanics these days, and I have NEVER been let down by Dick Sherrer Marine. I look forward to seeing them continue to perform excellent work under their new ownership as a long standing customer!Posted on Coach A2025-01-12Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great experience with the "new ownership" at Dick Sherrer Marine. Both Rafael and Carlos were friendly, informative, courteous, and efficient. Off-season (January) is the best time for work to be done! Engine wouldn't start, got the diagnostics with couple other items discovered as suggested fixes, was invited back to re-inspect and reassess. Picked and choose Carburetor work and control box replacement on my 1998 20' Wellcraft, while skipping few other items. Work completed quickly. Upon pickup, the boat was sparkly clean! Got home, tried it out, smooth as silk! Haven't heard it run that smoothly in years! Very happy customer and looking forward to more good experiences with the new Dick Sherrer Marine!Posted on Troy White2024-12-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Raphael and Carlos when beyond the call look beautiful put new brackets on the transom of my boat customer service was the best. They were honest fair and a great race I will be taking my boat back there for servicing.Posted on Ruel Teneza2024-10-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The service was great Rafeal was very helpful. This is where i will be taking my boat for any service it needs.Posted on Mark Kirkland2024-10-01Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my Advantage Party Cat boat to the new owners of Dick Sherrer Marine for a full-service inspection and maintenance, and I must say that I am beyond impressed with their professionalism, quality of work, and customer service, as I have been coming here for over 25 years. From the moment I walked into Dick Sherrer, the new owners (Rafi & Carlos) were welcoming and attentive, eager to understand the specific needs of my boat. What really stood out to me was their deep knowledge and experience with a variety of boat models and systems, as well as their willingness to go above and beyond in ensuring that every detail was addressed. They took the time to explain the maintenance process, provide insightful recommendations, and answer all of my questions thoroughly. The work on my boat was nothing short of exceptional. They handled everything from routine engine servicing to more complex repairs with precision and care. Every aspect of their work was completed on time, and they communicated with me every step of the way, keeping me informed about any issues they encountered and seeking approval before proceeding with any additional work. What really impressed me was their commitment to using high-quality Mercury parts. They didn’t cut corners, ensuring that everything installed or repaired on my boat was built to last. The attention to detail was evident not only in the mechanical work but also in the overall cleanliness and care they showed towards the entire boat, making sure it was returned in pristine condition. As a boat owner with high standards for maintenance and care, I can confidently say that the new ownership at Dick Sherrer Marine exceeded all my expectations. They treated my boat as if it were their own, which gave me immense peace of mind throughout the entire process. In an industry where finding trustworthy, reliable service providers can sometimes be a challenge, it’s refreshing to see a business like this one truly deliver on its promises. I highly recommend Dick Sherrer Marine to all boat owners who are looking for a dependable, knowledgeable team that values quality workmanship and customer satisfaction above all else. Whether you need routine maintenance, complex repairs, or just advice on keeping your boat in top condition, you can’t go wrong with them! I’ll definitely be returning for all future servicing, and I encourage any boat owner, new or experienced, to give them a try – you won’t be disappointed!
