Re a 589 Stabi- Jet...

The boat is bloody great, I am just so pleased with how it performs.  We have had it out in some messy seas and it handles no problems at all, and we came across our River Bar the other day an hour before low tide (un-useable 3hrs either side of low for outboards) in about a foot of water and didn’t even look like touching.  It attracts plenty of inquiries at the boat ramp too, so that’s great for Wanaka Marine.   So thank you for putting together such a great boat and thanks for the wine too. cheers

Bought an Alexcraft Sportjet- looked at others but Value Up this was it... What a great family boat- and thanks for your knowledge and input Brownie... Client for life in our family!!  Great day up the river too... How come u never got stuck@!!!??

I have nothing but good things to say about you, Wanaka Marine and your knowledgeable and friendly staff. At all times I felt I was treated with fairness and honesty, in a friendly relaxed atmosphere. You and your employees made me feel like a 'special client', which is probably the feeling 'all' of your customers get. No one was ever too busy to answer my questions or to take the time to explain something to me. You certainly went the extra mile in helping me sell my other boat, in order to purchase a new one from you. I think the best part is that 'after the sale', everyone was just as friendly and helpful as before the sale. It's not often that the client (me) feels that he was treated so well in a business transaction that he buys the seller (you) a bottle of vintage wine, as a 'Thank You'. I originally came to Wanaka Marine because I was looking at a used boat that was purchased from you, and the people selling it had nothing but good things to say about Wanaka Marine. I in turn have recommended you to others and will continue to do business with you far into the future.

Superior standard and reliability of equipment is paramount in the commercial jet boat industry along with a good mechanical team. Wanaka River Journeys has worked with Wanaka Marine since beginning its business in 2005 following on from great service and advice as a private boater for many years. In consultation with Ian and Vern we chose Mercury engines and jet units as well as a Hamilton 212 jet unit for use in our commercial jet boats and we have Wanaka Marine do all of our mechanical maintenance and servicing; a relationship that has given us continued confidence in our performance on the water. Wanaka Marine has provided professional and prompt service and has been consistently available for advice and any call our work we have required.

Thanks guys

"Wanaka Marine have been a great company to deal with, firstly in helping me to make the right decision with the size and type of boat, but also importantly staying in touch with ongoing servicing and backup support"

Dear Ian

RECOMMENDATION OF SERVICE

I wish to place on record my sincere appreciation and delight at the quality of service received from you and your team during the recent purchase of my Stabicraft.

Buying a boat has been on my agenda for a very long time (several years in fact), and to bring my dream to fruition through your business has made the process very enjoyable! You, and your team have at all times been very patient as I sorted out exactly what I wanted, and then during the process of construction and fit-out of the boat, you have all shown the utmost courtesy (and again patience) while all issues were worked through.

Again – a very big thank you and sincerest appreciation for the quality of your service. I would be grateful if you would extend this appreciation to your team as well.

I unreservedly recommend your services to current and future clients.

Sincerely

Arnold Picard

Ive had a few boats and this boat- and the deal from you guys was tops. The help of the sales team and the skill and knowledge from the tech staff was superior to any Ive ever dealt with around New Zealand.

I cannot recommend Wanaka Marine Highly enough!! I used to deal with another Local Marine Shop and in my experience they dont get a look in for service and skill level.

I came looking for an economical boat for  my family. I found an honest team with great knowledge whom i found an immediate affinity with. I came way 5 weeks later with what they thought i wanted and they were right. Great team and great service.. Thanks guys

Have to share my experience with these guys. Absolutley awesome. On holiday and my ski boat was not playing the game. These guys basically dropped what they were doing to help me. It was not tuned for the altitude and they got me sorted quick smart so I could get back on the water and enjoy my hol
