I can only place a review as a yacht transporter, but I gotta say- Dave, his family, and the team at Willis Marine Center couldn't be any better. Dave takes a tremendous amount of personal pride in how he preps a boat for transport, and how he cares for his customers. Everyone there is really friendly, plenty of parking and amenities nearby too. NY traffic can be a real bear, but this is a business I would love to come back to. Thanks guys!

David Willis and his family run operation are professional, knowledgeable and worth going to see for your needs. I have purchased two boats from Willis and am very pleased with their service and performance.

Willis Marine ordered and installed rub strakes fir my 2005 Beneteau 423
They did a fantastic job and turned it around in 4 days so I could continue to enjoy the fall sailing season. As well , I have been ordering parts through the yard and find them to be professional and prompt. Tip of my cap to Dave Willis and crew.

I have a marine salvage and repair business and Willis has been very very helpful to me over the years whether it be Dave or Todd or the older guy who I call the boat yard ninja. They're very experienced people there I highly recommend

Great place to buy your next boat. Willis was the selling broker, they were superb. They were committed to helping me move the boat to the Chesapeake during this Covid crisis. Even after the settlement, Dave and Todd made sure to answer questions and assist me in familiarizing myself with the new boat. When I hit Mega Millions, I'll definitely be back there to get my new Beneteau!
