Great customer service

I had been shopping around and researching a repower on my 1986, 21 ft Robalo cuddy for a few years . I am the 2nd owner of this boat and have done a lot of retro fitting during the last 15 years of ownership . My old 2 stroke had a lot of hrs on her and was getting tired , noisy , and the wife and grand kids were complaining about the smell . Contacted Affordable and was suprised that someone responded back to me with a quote to my specs within a few hours. Went back and forth via email a couple of days and made the deal over the phone and did all the finance work (simple thru Tohatsu) by e mail . Went up to the shop a few days later introduced my self to the owner Jim and shook hands on the deal . I was told the engine (BFT225) had been ordered and would be in the following week . We discussed what my needs were and that my transom would quite likely need some work , which it did . The engine came in on time , the transom rebuild was completed as promised , and the rigging and install went on schedule . All work was completed within 3 weeks of drop off and it was the middle of the season (July) when started .
Gotta say I spent my money well as the money I saved purchasing my engine from Jim payed for the transom rebuild . Boat now has a new life , quite , unreal torque , awesome power thru all ranges , and I'm using almost half the fuel I used to . Wife and Grand kids are extremely happy with the re power which means more time on water for me . It works.
The only complaint I had was the propeller pitch was to small from the factory and Jim made good on that with no problem , exchanging it with the proper pitch propeller .
Everyone that I have met that works @ Affordable were extremely interested in my concerns and not just looking to make a sale . All of my follow up questions after delivery were answered , and explained with no problem , with genuine customer concern . All verbal agreements and discussions were taken care of as agreed upon . Nice to spend my money someplace where a mans word is still worth something , a handshake still closes a deal , and everyone winds up happy .jim smith, new haven, CT -
Jim and his team at Affordable Marine are truly the best. Highly professional, great service and price. I have had a boat serviced there for several years and have consistently received great service. Would not go any where else!!

Brought a couple older motors in to get water pumps done. Quick turnaround. One he even cleaned the carburetor at no charge. Great work.

Jim and David at Affordable Marine "Best Damn Boat Shop Period" are the best! When it was time to repower my Bayliner on Long Island, I never expected to buy in CT. But these guys are real pros - helpful and professional from the first step to the last. Island Girl is now back on the water and running great with her "new" motor. Thanks and cheers!
