My boat has never run so well. We tried getting cheaper parts and finding a mechanic on craigslist , not a good idea. Advanced Marine Service was great. Extremely knowledgeable and professional. I am very happy with the job they did.

Was very satisfied with the repairs that were made now I am going to return to get something else done on the boat because I was very happy with the work was done and the way they properly timed it, and I would recommend it to my other boating friendsServices: General repairs & maintenance

I would like to start with thank you to the guys at advanced marine. They go above and beyond to help you and save you money. They are extremely Knowledgeable.. and take the time to explain what the issue is and what they can do to resolve it. They are by far one of the best boat shops in orange county. Thanks again guys .

Finally found a local boat shop I can trust. Hard to find places that'll work on older boats. They took in my 1993 Four Winns, with the Ford OMC. Getting zero crank and I expected the worst. Diagnosed my bad starter, replaced it, had back on the water the same day. Derrick and David were helpful, responsive, and straight forward. Highly recommend.

Took my small outboard to the guy they Refered. I told him to do a simple impeller change with housing, he decided on his own to just chandler he impeller, now the housing leaking, 6 months later. My biggest complaint is he did something with the pill string, making it rub on something every time it's pulled, shredding it until today it broke. So impeller leaking 5 months later and pull. String broke on a perfectly good motor. Easiest repair to do completely screwed up.

Felt it was time to go ahead And give my opinion regarding Advanced marine Costa Mesa. Derek was extremely helpful and on top of everything from day one. The processes involved in repairs of my sea ray were like clockwork. Repairs were completed ahead of schedule. So far I couldn't be happier. They might not be the cheapest around but don't forget that you do get what u pay for. I will be launching on Friday and to be honest I feel pretty confident that all will go well. If not perhaps my opinion will change and if so I will definitely speak out. Thanks again advanced marine.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I’ve been going to Advance for a number of years and have always been happy with their service but since they have moved to their new location they have upped their game. Scheduling appointments drop off and pick up were easy. Got my boat in and out quickly and attention to the smaller details was all I could ask for. Highly recommendServices: General repairs & maintenance

Very helpful and polite. I took my Johnson Evinrude outboard here and they were excited to work on it and it turned out great

As much as I hate to leave them a bad review...I must. We took our bass boat to them for an outboard motor repair (the motor was having acceleration issues). We drove a long distance to use them because of the good reviews. After a good deal of money for the "repair" we took the boat out to the lake a couple weeks later. It still runs crappy...just like before. I called them TWICE during normal business hours...but I had to leave a message both times. I explained (briefly) the issue. They never called me back.

I recently had them replace the V-8 engine in my 25 foot walkabout, I also have them replace the hydraulic pump for the trim tabs and work in adjust my trailer at the same time I had them detail and buff out the boat as it was in definitely. Everything was done exceptionally, on time, and for the promised price.Services: Engine repair

These guys are TOP NOTCH!I had such a wonderful experience dealing with this company. I was treated professionally and Super friendly . I'm talking over $1700.00 Friendly. Instead of Gouging me and selling me a $2000 brand new part, they were able to repair my boat and save me a ton of money. Only charged me $300.00. #merrychristmas.I won't ever go anywhere else to get my boat services. Father and Son team. I recommend this company above all the boat companies that I have ever dealt with. 5 Stars all Day. Front desk people, are sweet as pie. Thanks Advanced Marine.

The place is very clean and boatyard & workspace well maintained...It's a mom & pop & son shop...David, Deniece and DerrickI chose them over another shop which looked like an abandoned trailer park who could take me earlier but I wanted to wait for Advanced Marine!!They are honest.. They do what they say they're going to do, and they charge what they say they're going to charge. (Only thing is, they run about a month lead time. You need to call to get an appointment).. They even came out for a "house call" last summer when we had throttle/shifting issues and did not charge me!!I had a major overhaul done when I first got the 23' 1986 i/o boat last March/April.. (the boat was in pretty rough shape,)Now it's shipshape and ready for bay & ocean cruising!!Both experiences - last April and again last week - were great.Highly recommend them..Services: Accessory & electronic installations

I've been boating for over 20 years and this has been by far the best boat service I have ever received. They took my boat in on time and had the work requested done extremely fast even though they are busy. These guys know the motors on my boat in and out and even went above and beyond with an issue I had at pickup. I will never take my boat anywhere else for service here on out.
