In search of local quality maintenance and repair with a trained professional, I came across RJR Marine Service. I called and explained the issues I was having with my boat at low RPMs. I brought my boat in for service, RJR tuned the engine and my boat shifts and accelerates perfectly. It practically purrs now. Rico performs excellent quality service and repair. Highly recommend.

Not wanting to make it worse than it already was I figured I would seek the advise of a professional. I found RJR Marine on the internet and figured I would give them a call. It was 6:30 pm and I was figuring I would get a recording and leave a message. That wasn't the case, Rico answered the phone and told me that I could drop the boat off that night if I wanted. By Wednesday afternoon Rico called to tell me that the boat was ready to pickup - he had flushed the fuel system, cleaned the

I recently utilized RJR Marine in both the Winter and Spring seasons to ensure my 07' 2400 Regal was ready for whatever the water had for us. RJR winterized and covered my boat with a major savings in cost and time. I recently used RJR for my Spring tune up including an oil change, filter replacements, and top to bottom check to ensure everything was in working order. I will continue to recommend this team to boaters and locals alike- thank you for your continued support and commitment to keeping my vessel safe and usable.
