Matt and the rest of his team at Hanks have been there for me on numerous occasions with issues with my boat. Hanks has more of a family than business atmosphere. It doesn’t matter if your problem is big or small, they always make you feel as though you are their priority and ensure to get you back on the water in record time.

I bought a boat from Hank’s Marine and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Matt, the owner, was absolutely great to work with—knowledgeable, honest, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Their customer service is top-notch, and I know I’ll only be bringing my boat here for all my servicing and winterizing needs. It’s hard to find a place you can fully trust, but Hank’s Marine is truly one of the greats. Highly recommend them!

I drove out of state to buy a boat from Hanks Marine, I was a first time customer to Hanks and the customer service was outstanding. They were great to work with. If you are looking for a new or used boat, I highly recommend Hanks Marine. This is a very professional business that cares about their customers and the service they provide.

Matt had stored our boat for us this winter. The weather was nice yesterday so I called to get on the schedule. Matt was able to have broad ready in 2 hours and even let me borrow his hitch. What service, thanks Matt. Keith and Leslie

Last fall I decided to replace the floor in my 1991 Aquapatio pontoon boat. Based on a recommendation from a local boat owner, I went to Hank’s Marine. I explained what I wanted to do and was immediately quoted a price range for the job which I considered to be very fair since it included all that was required for the floor replacement, pick-up and delivery, and all winterizing, storage, and normal off-season servicing. The work was excellent in all regards. The price was honored even though I know there was some unplanned effort involved in the project. I am grateful to Matt and his team!

I went to Hanks with a pretty big project. Matt and the guys did not shy away like so many others I went to. Matt’s expertise in engines and outdrives gave me the power and speed I need to get offshore for Tuna. Chris the head mechanic made this big job look easy. The fabrication and craftsmanship looked like it was done at the factory. The biggest thing I appreciated from this experience was the honesty from Matt and Chris. They didn’t tell me what I wanted to hear. Ther subject matter expertise gave me everything I needed and then some. Power, performance, and reliability. If you need to repower or need engine work done on you boat go see Matt at Hanks. You won’t be sorry. I’m real glad I did .Thanks again Matt!!!
