“We couldn't be happier with the Sales and Service Department. We have been a satisfied customer over twenty years and purchased 4 new yachts. The entire staff has always been a pleasure to work with.”

“Bought our first boat from Skipper Buds in North Point this spring and they have been great to work with. As a newer boater, they have helped me with several questions and boat issues this year. Really appreciated our sales person who got us in the right boat, to service team who has been great.”
