Not sure why the past customer said they did not take credit cards. I paid over the phone after my problem was resolved. They came out in short notice and saved my holiday weekend.

Incompetent and unethical. Not recognized by the BBB. Does not accept credit cards so you have no recourse when you realize he charged you $2600 to "rebuild" generator parts.

I can not say enough how professional and honest this company has been. I dealt with Bill in the office and Ed the mechanic. I was unable to get my generator started after sitting for 5 months. I was told by another company that came out, that my Fischer Panda generator that only had 224 hours on it needed to be placed. To me and Fischer Panda tech support, this was highly unlikely. Tech Support said i just needed someone with experience to work on this generator. I called Davidson's Marine Services and spoke with Bill. He was able to get someone out to work on my generator with in a week. Ed the

Terrible experience regarding marine engine repair and I would DEFINITELY NOT use them. Per my attorney's advise, I retrieved my engine, still not running after their second attempt and full payment to repair. It has also been 2 plus weeks. It appears to be heading to court now. What a waste of time and energy.....

Still finding out how much they screwed me on a rebuilt motor... after 3 years of learning the Dos and donts for this engine, Im finally getting everything right in my boat. Stay clear away from this company!!! Incorrect install of a drip less shaft using hot engine water and melting it. Electric wiring was all screwed up. They even told me to use the compression valve to shut the engine down, in the manual it says clearly to avoid failure do not use to shut the engine down... I can go on but I wont...

Under both power and sail I have traversed the intercoastal waterway (Norfolk to Key West and on to Brownsville TX) many times and completed a little over 15,000 off shore miles. In those years I have experienced both horrific and outstanding services from several dozen marine servce companies along the way. Recently as I have ben preparing an old heavy displacemet salboat for an extended passage off shore, I have contraced with Davidson Marine Service on a number of occasions to help duing the refurbishment process. Typically the projects were complicated, in tight confining spaces, never conducted
