Dave's Marine, Inc. — Local services in Fort Madison

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t say enough good things about Mike and the team at Dave’s Marine. Not only is Mike incredibly knowledgeable and competent when it comes to boats, but he’s also refreshingly direct—he doesn’t waste your time with fluff. He tells it like it is, and he backs that up with solid, reliable work.

Despite running a relatively small operation, Mike somehow manages to get things done quickly and efficiently. Every time I’ve brought my boat in, the turnaround has been surprisingly fast. That speaks volumes about both his skill and his work ethic—both of which I’d put second to none.

Even though there’s a closer dealership to me, I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. I bought my new ProCat 240 from Dave’s Marine, and Mike’s been nothing but faithful and dedicated in helping keep it in top shape—even when I’ve had persistent issues. Right now, he’s helping me navigate an insurance claim on the lower unit of my motor, and based on every past and present experience, I know it’ll be handled right.

Highly recommend Dave’s Marine for both sales and service. Mike’s the real deal.

And yes—I’m throwing in some gratuitous fish pics with this review, just to prove I’m a real person, talking about a real boat. Mike’s help keeping me on the water has led to real smiles, and you know what they say: no pics, it didn’t...

I bought my boat 4 years ago from Mike and couldn't be happier. He has always been extremely helpful honest and informational. He made the buying process smooth and straight forward from the start to delivery. Mike made sure of what I wanted and offered his experience to get exactly what I needed. His service and efforts to get these things done are second to none. It is always a positive experience dealing with Dave's...

Mike was very helpful when I was looking for a boat this January. He was knowledgeable and focused more on making sure I ended up with the correct boat for me instead of just making a sale.

I ended up purchasing a surface drive motor from him and strongly recommend him for anyone looking for quality equipment and service.

Mike will not lead you astray. He will help you find the boat that best...
