What Our Customers Say About Us

• Subject: Thank You
  Just a quick email to inform you of how appreciative I am of your service team. This afternoon, my boat experienced mechanical issues and consequently i (along with my guests) were stranded. With a call to Crowe, Fred Bryant and Dustin Simon arrived to assist and service the problem. They were extremely knowledge and courteous. Quickly they diagnosed the problem, had the replacement part delivered and we were on our way within no time. My guests and I thank you for your outstanding customer service! Ever since I purchased my boat from you 3 years ago, you never have disappointed me.
  Regards,

• We cannot say enough about the excellent experience we had with Crowe Marina starting the minute I met Brian at the ATL Boat Show. I called Crowe Marina after the show and met John. He is the consummate professional sales man, not in a hurry, asking the right questions, not selling but listening. He did many things for us on a used boat that really impressed us. He replaced the prop, the radio, the fuel line, took off the old numbers, and a full tank of gas as well as a gallon of oil. And 100 hour maintenance. And Fred was just as gracious and made us feel like we were the most important people in the room. He spent a lot of time going over every part of the boat at the shop as well on the water. He noticed the trim gauge was bad and took it back to the shop and replaced it! He could have overlooked it and delivered it to us but he didn't. That speaks volumes about him and his company.
  If you all do this for the used boat buyer, it must be fantastic as well for the new boat buyer. Your staff is fantastic and I will be sure to tell everyone I discuss boats with about the experience we had with Crowe Marina. Unparalleled. We enjoyed meeting Brian at the shop again and his mother who was very very helpful with all the paper work and advice.
  Regards,
  John & Beth Wieschhaus

• Just a quick note to let you know how pleased Pam and I are with our recent purchase from Crowe Marine. From the first time we stopped at your business to delivery, everyone we dealt with was professional, courteous and helpful. Your patience in explaining to us the differences in Bennington boats versus the competition and then educating us on the different Bennington models so we could make the proper decision for our situation was invaluable. The negotiation was handled professionally and with integrity. You and Crowe Marine delivered exactly what was promised and more. While the entire process was handled without a hitch, I have absolute confidence that should a situation arise where I need your assistance, you will be there for us just as you were before the sale. That is something that is hard to put a value on as service after the sale is priceless.

• I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how happy we are with our new Bennington Pontoon boat and to also thank you for the wonderful service that you and your team provide. I would like to send a special thanks to Charlie, Randy, and Fred who walked me through the entire process and went out of the way to provide exceptional customer service. This is my third boat/personal watercraft acquisition from Crowe Marine and the experience gets better every time!
  Please share this note with your staff, as I would like them all to know what a terrific job they are doing in helping to build customer loyalty and customer satisfaction.
  Best Regards,

• I'm just sending a note to let you know that I feel Crowe Marine has taken over as the best marine operation with which I have ever dealt. I have owned 14 boats in my life, 11 of them as an adult. I have dealt with many marine dealerships and service operations. In my long stay in Michigan I had a long-term relationship with a particular operation with which I remained very loyal because of their outstanding sales AND service treatment. You demonstrate the same and even better attention to me from both aspects. I also note that I am not alone in this opinion. Many of my friends and acquaintances feel that you are an outstanding dealership. It makes me very comfortable recommending that people come and see you; something I take very seriously.
  Because of this high opinion of Crowe Marine, I have worked gratis at the Atlanta Boat Show with you for the past two years. I wouldn't do this if I weren't convinced of your sincerity about the treatment of customers prior, at, and following the sale of your products. Seeing your team in action and working with them at the Show has further demonstrated to me your dedication to doing things right for the customers and treating your employees well also.
  I look forward to continued sale and service dealings with Crowe Marine as well as working with you at future boat shows if you'll have me.

• Our intention was to purchase (Tom Glavine's) one-year old wakeboard boat. George asked us to come in and talk to Brian about comparing new boat prices to used boat prices. Brian listed the options that we were looking for in a boat and budda-bang-budda-boom, we were purchasing a new wakeboard boat. The process was very professional and painless. All of the staff at Crowe knows their products; they were able to understand our boating needs and the follow-up maintenance has been impeccable. We initially forgot to order a bimini top and a week later it had been ordered and installed. My 14-year-old son is a boating and wakeboarding fanatic. He has been buying all of his wakeboarding equipment from these folks. Debbie and I would like to thank the entire Crowe staff for its professionalism and customer care attitude. We enjoy the folks so much at Crowe that a month later we purchased a Wave Runner from Charlie with the same satisfaction.

• We were in the process of building our house at Reynolds Plantation and were to the point of needing to purchase our new boat. We had looked at the other Marina's in the area and settled on Crowe due to friendliness, lack of high pressure sales and quality of their product line. After numerous visits over the winter we finally decided on a boat and made the purchase.
  Crowe Marine was holding our boat for us to deliver when we requested it in the spring. We requested delivery and were trained in the operation of the craft until we were comfortable with it.
  After being out on our new boat about three times, we realized we had made a mistake in purchasing a boat substantially smaller than what we really needed. We were sure that selling or trading the smaller boat in for a larger one would be a financial nightmare. That said, we went back to Crowe Marine and explained our dilemma. The entire family, Ms. Julie, Bill, and Brian Crowe, were extremely understanding and sympathetic to our situation. They all worked with us as well as Charlie Brown to help us determine what other boat would actually satisfy our needs.
  We were taken on multiple test rides in different sizes and models to nail down the perfect choice. Once that was determined, the identification of what type engine would meet our boating needs was discussed. You'd think this would be a simple task, get the big one, but Brian Crowe identified the pluses and minus in larger and smaller engines and fit us with exactly what we needed.
  The Crowe family also worked with us to help sell our first boat. They approached this task as though it was a normal sale for them but they were doing it for us. Our first boat was positioned in the showroom right in the middle of the other new boats they were promoting.
  I've neglected to mention Their Service Department. Timely, competent, & Professional, no more need be said.
  This whole experience could have been disastrous in many ways but the Crowe Marine family did not allow that to happen. From this reading we can only impart two thoughts, if you're not buying a boat from Crowe Marine you are making a mistake and secondly, we wish Crowe Marine sold cars!
  Sincerely,

• Both Gary and I would like to express to you all there at Crowe Marine our thanks and let you know how much we appreciated your help, advise, and patience while we were becoming educated about buying our "first ever" boat. We have been enjoying it so much since we got it. It sure does make a difference being out on the water. We feel fortunate to come to know you, and look forward to doing business with you for a long time to come. Thanks again for everything you did to make this a good experience. Hope to see you soon. Thanks for your time and help. Tell Fred we appreciate him taking the time to walk us through everything. All is going well.
  Sincerely Grateful,

• When we decided to buy a new boat we looked at many different makes & models. Our last stop was Crowe Marine. Julie, Bill & Brian Crowe listened to what we wanted in a boat and led us to our boat.
  They were a pleasure doing business with and represent a first class product. The service has been excellent. The next boat or Jet Ski we buy will be from Crowe. We consider the Crowe's not only business associates but also friends.

• The folks at Crowe Marine are always friendly and helpful. Their well-trained parts and accessories departments make my boating more convenient and fun. I also particularly like their dockside service when those emergency repairs are needed. I buy all my boats at Crowe Marine and have been completely satisfied with each one.

• I would like to take the time to let you know that Crowe Marine rates lst class in Customer service. After purchasing three watercraft from you, I find you, Bill, Julie, Brian & Janice the up front team. To be so outstanding it is hard to find words to describe. I can't leave out Charlie in parts department, or Randy with his team in sevice department. They all have customer service Plus. Bill, I plan to buy more watercraft in the future. So based on past hospitality, service and price I can not find myself going to another Dealer. My Harris "Legend" is wonderful!!

• Peggy and I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know what a pleasure it was for us to purchase our newest Harris pontoon boat from you again. To us, service is the name of the game. We don't anticipate any problems with our new Harris boat, but we know that if we need information or any kind of maintenance, we can depend upon your knowledgeable support staff to help us out. We've always been impressed through the years that you have had the same maintenance employees for 20+ years. They really do a super job. You certainly have a first-class operation. The delivery and checkout cruise was a real treat for us. Thanks for all the special touches! We look forward to many great times on the lake.

• "Crowe Marine is a very well run family business. The show room, parts and accessories, and maintenance areas are immaculate and their employees are friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. What more would someone shopping for value want when buying, equipping and maintaining their boats and jet skis? We would confidently recommend Crowe Marine to any of our friends."
  Mike & Judy Meredith, Reynolds Plantation, Greensboro, GA
  
• Just a note to thank you for the way you and your great organization have met all our boating need these past four years. Little did we realize when we moved here that the lake would provide so much enjoyment for us and our many friends that have visited.
  Our first contact with you was for a service recall on our Cobalt boat which you did not sell, but were willing to come to the lake and repair. That spoke volumes to me about your intent to serve the customer. Since then we have trusted you with the trade in of our Cobalt and purchase of a new boat & Wave Runners. They have been problem free and your service turnaround for annual maintenance has kept us in the water.
  As a customer, that's what it's all about. Lake Oconee is a place where friends and relationships develop quickly. It's always a pleasure for Peggy or I to come to your place of business for any reason as a warm greeting always waits in every department. We value our relationship. Best wishes for continued success.

• There is no better combination than a great product and great service to this John Q. Consumer! The HarrisKayot pontoon boat that we bought at last year's boat show in Atlanta is a great boat and the service provided by Bill, Julie and Brian Crowe and their staff at Crowe Marine has been above and beyond. From the on-the-water operating instructions to outfitting the boat to our spec, everything has been outstanding.
  Family businesses like Crowe Marine are the heart and soul of commerce in the country and nobody works harder than the Crowe family to satisfy their loyal customers! They deserve every bit of success and recognition they get!
  Rich & Linda Good, CastleBridge, Lake Oconee, Greensboro, GA
  
• A sincere "Thank You" for helping us with the purchase of our new Harris Kayot 24' Pontoon Boat! The performance has exceeded our expectations; the boat is just perfect for getting us around Lake Oconee. A short note of thanks also to the service staff. They are always very kind and courteous. A real help this summer. Our Yamaha Wave Runner has never been better. Happy Boating!
