Fantastic experience! Fred, my sales guy was extremely accommodating throughout the entire process, very knowledgeable. The actual boat delivery was awesome, very thorough, David went through the motor in depth and how to operate all aspects of the boat as well as a water trial. I have owned multiple boats and every other dealership has just hooked me up and handed me the keys. What a refreshing difference, well done GCM!

I just want to thank JP Navarro and Owner Billy Holmes for their hard work to make this deal a real seamless transaction. JP worked hard everyday for 5 days answering question and making sure I felt like a valued customer. JP has the no pressure approach and I liked that very much. The Staff at GCM in Corpus is second to none! From the Owner, Service Manager Chris, and closer Carol. Everyone knew their job well. Thanks for helping us make the 2010 Sea Hunt 232 deal a reality!!

We recently took delivery of a Sea Hunt BX20BR purchased from Fred Cardona at your business. The entire boat buying and delivery process was a very positive one. Fred was a pleasure to work with- friendly, dependable, and knowledgeable. He went out of his way to be sure we were getting the boat we wanted outfitted the way we wanted it. Dan Kelly spent a good bit of time explaining the mechanics of the boat to us, and then he took us out on the water for an introduction to the boat. Fred accompanied us on this introductory ride, even though it was his day off. Then he helped us get the trailer parked on our small Padre Island lot. Both Fred and Dan delivered above average service, and we had never had a better customer service experience. Your business is fortunate to have these two fie employees.

Fred, I just returned from a trip to Florida with my new Seahunt boat. I spent 5 weeks there and fished everyday except 2. As you know, I have fished all of my life, but this is the first saltwater boat that I have owned. Because of this, I relied heavily on your recommendations on how this boat should be equipped. I would like to thank you for your honesty and expertise in these recommendations. The boat has performed exactly as you told me it would in all kinds of weather. The standard equipment on this boat has amazed me. It has all of the key things that you need to have a safe and successful fishing trip each time that you go out. The T-Top that I got was one of two things that surprised me. I did not think the T-Top was needed that much, but I was wrong. The protection that it provides from both sun and rain is something that I now consider a necessity in the Texas heat. The other item is the 150 HP Yamaha engine that you recommended for this BX22BR. It provides plenty of power even when the boat has six adults aboard. It is also very fuel efficient. As you know, I am advanced in age to the point that this will probably be the last boat I will own. Because of this, it was crucial that I get the right boat for my needs which includes fishing fresh water most of the year. Due to your professionalism and honesty in dealing with me, I now have that boat. Thank you so much. Mr. Beall

I bought my World Cat over the phone after talking with Billy Holmes.He was very helpful and knowlageable about all the cats and made the buying experiance a pleasure.I would highly recomend dealing with GCM and Billys 30+ years in a family owned boat dealership can not be matched.

I just purchased my third boat from Gulf Coast Marine. I always find a great selection to shop from starting with a 22 boat the first time, going too small the second time to a 17 boat and have found the ideal size in the new Blue Wave 1900 STL with all the added options that I wanted. I always shop with Curtis in sales who takes the time to make sure every thing is right on the boat and service has always followed up on my tune-ups timely and Chris in service always takes time to answer questions that I have. I would refer Gulf Coast Marine to anyone interested in boating. Charles

This is the third boat I have owned and it is by far the best. It is a XP 21 with a Yahama 150 four stroke and the trailer is built by Horizon Trailers.The Boat has a smooth ride,the motor has plenty of power and the trailer tows perfect and the boat loads with ease.The dealer ship and staff are very easy to work with.Tom Miller sold me the boat and delivered everything with as promised. Thanks Brian

I just purchased a 2011 Blue Wave 1900STL. This is my 4th boat purchase from Gulf Coast Marine over a period of 28 years. As always, I received great service from sales and service. Curtis Faske (sales) did a great job of describing the features of my new boat and was right on target on the performance traits as well. Keep up the great work.

I have owned my boat for about 6 weeks now and only had it on the water three times for the total of one hour. Every time I take it out something breaks on it. Harold was my salesman and he has done a great job helping me get every thing fixed and back on the water. The entire staff at Gulf Coast Marine has been great from Judy in parts,Ray in service,Harold in sales making sure I understand every thing that is going on with my boat. Yes we have had issues with the boat,but your staff has made it as painless as possible. I have never been treated as well in any dealership as I was here. Billy Holmes even took the time to speak with me and make sure I was being treat right. So many dealerships seem to think that the service ends with the sale of the boat. Gulf Coast Marine has a different approach, they think the service begins with the sale of a boat. SERVICE AFTER THE SALE!!!! That is what Gulf Coast Marnie is about.
