Tom Hall from Santa Rosa CA
"I am so grateful for having found Ace Marine Boat Repair of Santa Rosa. Having my boat in tip top shape and ready for cruising Lake Sonoma is important to me and Jimmy of Ace Marine always seems to know how to keep me afloat. I can not recommend his boat repair services highly enough!"
Beverly Thompson from Sebastopol, CA
"Hi Jim, Just returned from a camping/fishing trip at Ice House Lake and boat looked really sharp on the lake. Thanks for getting back to me and I am very satisfied with the repair! My son and daughter said I should give you a big hug as they have never seen a repair done as well. Thanks for the tip about the marine wax. Really need to have the boat detailed, do you happen to know someone who does boat detailing and is as honest as you. Bev"
Rick Lewis from San Francisco, CA
"Hi Jim, just wanted you to know I was extremely satisfied with the dry-rot repairs you completed on my boat. I didn't think my 22' Wellcraft was going to make it but you made it happen. You completed the job on time and matched the exact price of what you quoted me from the beginning. I also appreciate the referral you gave me to BK upholstery as they did an incredible job on my boats interior. Could not be more happy and I will definitely be coming back to Ace Marine for all my services and repairs in the future. R. Lewis"
Cliff Trenery from Santa Rosa, CA
"Hi Jim, Just wanted to let you know how happy I am that you were able to fix my Kawasaki 750sxi standup. For the three years I have owned it, it has performed at a sub-standard level, ie., bad hesitation while accelerating. We just got back from Lake Sonoma and the jet ski operated absolutely perfect. It is gratifying to find a shop that can do it right the first time. Thanks. Cliff Trenery"
Ted Baker from Sebastopol, Ca
"Jim, I want to thank you for taking the time and locating the parts that I needed to repair my older OMC outdrive. With your patience and information I was able to get my family ski boat back on the water for our once a year vacation. Will be back for parts and service. Thanks again!"
Sam Lando from Sebastopol, CA
"Hey Jim – I did get your voice mail and sorry for taking a little time to get back to you…pretty busy here at the winery at the moment. Nevertheless, we took the boat out two weekends ago. It’s running great and the leak seams to be fixed. The bilge didn’t come on and their were maybe three drips of water when I pulled the plug. For the time being, I think we’re going to hold on to the boat until next spring. I’m sure we’ll take it out a few more times before the end of the year. Thank you again for all of your efforts and I’m thrilled to have a solid vehicle!!! Cheers, Sam Lando Managing Director of Marketing & Sales Kosta Browne Winery"
Roger Lake from Santa Rosa, CA
"Hey Jimmy, thanks so much for the great dry rot repair and out drive rebuild on my 1988 Ski Sanger. I came to you when I first purchased the boat from Craig’s List and you showed me what dry rot problems my new boat had but you did it in a way that was honest and kind. I trusted you because of the way you explained the needed repairs. Other boat repair shops tried scare tactics and said things like: “I wouldn’t put that thing in the water the way it is. Your whole transom is about to fall off” and other real exciting news to a new boat owner. You on the other hand, after a thorough inspection, told me that I could get through the summer and then gave me a quote that was hundreds of dollars less than two other bids and was in my price range, (the previous owner denied any dry rot and I ended up threatening to take him to court which caused him to give me some of the purchase price back). I took your advice and enjoyed it over that summer and then brought it to you. You pulled out my motor and out drive, tore out my old transom and fit a new one in with new stringers where my motor mounts and rebuilt my out drive. You took your time and did all the repairs right the first time. I’ve enjoyed the boat for 4 seasons now with no problems. The out drive is quiet and goes in and out of gear perfectly. Because of your attention to detail, I have sent my son-in-law and his Malibu skier to you as well as numerous other boat owner friends and they all have been extremely pleased with the work you have done. I continue to recommend Ace Marine and I appreciate our friendship as well. Roger A. Lake, RAS, CSC Admissions Department Manager Drug Abuse Alternatives Center Turning Point Residential Program "
Jeff Counihan from Frisco, CO
"Hey Jim, Just wanted to thank you for taking such care and time with my Malibu that I purchased in your area. I couldn't believe you were able to take me in on such short notice and accommodate my personal time frame. I really appreciate you waiting for me late Saturday afternoon to winterize and completely shrink wrap my boat on Sunday so I could get on the road back to Colorado. The top and bottom shrink wrap was the way to go. It looked the exactly same when I arrived in Colorado as it did when I left your shop in California. Cant wait to unwrap and get it going this summer! Thanks again, Jeff "
