Mr. Ryan is selling boats and boat accessories on Face book Marketplace for this business. He listed an item for a dollar amount, then we agreed on a price. Ryan told me on 2-29-24 that on 3-1-24 I could come and pick up the item anytime after 6PM. I said I would be there. He messaged me today and said someone offered more and that he did not want to be that guy but he needed the extra money. I offered more and we agreed for a second time that I would drive up and buy his item for sale. Then just before we were going to make the couple hour drive up there he said again that another party had offered him more money and that he was going to go with that offer and that he was sorry. The guy changed his price three times and said if that money was no problem why I don’t just pay him. I think this is horrible to do to someone and if his word is no good, what do you people think his boats are going to be like? I would suggest staying clear of this organization. Ryan try having some candor!

Great experience at this dealership. Ryan was my initial contact and was very helpful and knowledgeable about the boat I was interested in. They provided a great price for my trade and treated me like a valued customer. Joel was awesome with making sure I was happy with the final numbers and answered all my questions. I will be back to work with these guys for my next boat! Thank you!

I live in Montana and had a terrible experience with a different dealership in my area. Long story short, I had submitted a new boat build to Alumacraft, paid a deposit and waited 7 months, only to be told that the order was going to be cancelled.Discouraged, I started calling around to dealerships looking for a boat, and thankfully gave Westre's Marine a call. I was simply asking questions about their in-stock inventory when I got into details about my abandoned build by my hometown dealer. Ryan and Joel were not only able to track down my boat at the manufacturer in less than 12 hours, they were able to correct mistakes the other dealer had made on the build sheet and correct them, all at a more competitive price than if I was buying in Montana.I would have been extremely nervous to buy something without seeing it in person, but the staff at Westre's were incredibly knowledgeable, transparent, and true customer advocates. They worked with me every step of the way and were able to get my dream fishing boat delivered to me in Montana only four weeks later, exactly how I wanted it.Cannot say enough about them, other than I wish I had a dealership like them closer to home. Would not hesitate to recommend any of my friends or family to purchase through them.

I would be careful dealing with Westre’s. I went to buy my first new boat and Joel the finance manager put a purchase agreement together on paper for me on a boat, encouraged me to finance with them and once my financing came back approved they called me to tell me they needed to charge me $5,000 more if I wanted the boat and package they put on the purchase agreement and that I put a down payment on. Seems like they bait you in with a good deal then jack the price up on you when you’re ready to close the deal. I talked to the owner about this, he said he would not honor the price and all he could provide was that he was sorry for the bad experience. Seems like this is a selling strategy the owner Jason Westre supports.

Couldn't be happier with Westre's. My salesman, Ryan, was extremely knowledgeable, patient, and easy to work with throughout the whole process. Joel, the sales manager, gave us a favorable market price on our new Barletta pontoon as well. The boat was prepped right upon pick-up. Excellent work from start to finish! Will be back for any future boating needs.

Had a great experience buying our boat from Westre’s! We were greeted with kindness right away, and had exceptional customer service from Talon. Once they knew we were serious about a purchase, they had it detailed, well maintained, and got us on the water in quick easy fashion. Highly recommend their business.

Brought my pontoon in for service. Drain old gas and diagnose engine sputter. Just took pontoon out and it ran perfectly! They even do trailer tire bearings! In and out quick and reasonably priced. Awesome job Westre's! You've got a lifetime customer!

Shane in parts was extremely helpful in ordering what I needed then when I accidentally installed incorrectly, he helped troubleshoot over the phone which lead to a successful fix on my part and got me back on the water. Thanks, Shane!

Very poor service department did not fix what I wanted and did work that was not authorized with no estimate. Had my stuff for 6 months no one calls back horrible experience.

We've been here a couple times, bought our Trophy 185 here a couple years ago. Stopped in today to get some info on pontoons at the end of the season. Our sales guy was Ryan, and i have to say it was probably one of the best sales experiences I've had in the last few years. He listened, showed us things, took his time, didn't push, didn't try and upsell. He was absolutely awesome!

spoke to a couple of sales guys 4 days before my showing. I was never told the needed repairs. when I got there the sales guys seem like he had no idea about the boat. Offered me another boat that also needed repair. really seem like they didn't want to sell anything. very disappointed, drove 2 hours for nothing.

Bought a part didnt need it anymore i was within the return window. Despite spending almost 300 for a very basic serice where they just hooked my motor up to a pc and gave me a read out they wanted to charge a hefty restock and shipping fee on a small part that could almost fit in an envelope. It will be the last time i buy anything from this place.
