Ryan did an over the top job dialing in my wakeboard boat for the summer. He exceeded my expectations regarding service and did it in a timely manor!
Not only do they do a killer job and are knowledgeable BUT they now also carry my fav detailing products (BOAT BLING)!
Thanks Guys!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Jun 28, 2012Previous reviewI have had nothing but fantastic service from both Ryan and Gary of Park Presidio Marine...they go above and beyond to accomadate the very specific needs of their customers.
I had the opportunity to speak w the son one day and ask about his boat mechanic knowledge base...Ryan travels nationally to stay up on his Mercury and Yamaha certifications just to name a few. They are an up to date progressive shop that can meet any need of a boat enthusiast or weekend warrior (you know the kind who can't back a trailer down a ramp)!
Thanks for the long time service. - David Y.Pinole, CA683Jun 5, 2019
I work for a billion dollar company in the East Bay that has a small fleet of boats that I recently took responsibility for after taking on a special assignment. Unfortunately the boats weren't in 100% efficient working order and apparently our scheduled maintenance wasn't getting done as well as we had hoped. When our maintenance department started falling behind we decided to look to outside vendors to maintain the boats. Needless to say we couldn't find one to our liking locally. It was then passed onto our planning department to try and find someone who is a "Yamaha authorized dealer" since we use Yamaha motors. Our search brought us to Park Presidio Marine located on the other side of the Bay. Luckily for us, PPM was willing to come over to us and take a look at our boats and come up with a plan to service our boats at our facility.
It's now been 8 weeks and 4 visits since we first made contact with PPM and I can't say enough good things our how this is working out. Ryan has been able to get 2 of our boats back up to working order. He listens to my concerns and addresses them quickly. From what I've heard, our planning department is now expecting to try and purchase a 250 HP replacement motor and have them mount it on our twin motored 32 footer. I'll be sure to write up another review about how that goes, but so far we are very satisfied with PPM.
Keep doing what your doing Gary and Ryan!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - J K.Corte Madera, CA0320Jul 29, 2019
Had my boat repowered at Park Presido Marine a few months ago. Replaced a 1998 Mercury 200 EFI 2-stroke with a new Yamaha F200 XCA with new controls and gauges + steering system, batteries, and service for my kicker (T8) and trailer.
All in all, it was a good experience. As other reviews have mentioned, the owner (Gary) and son (Ryan) are good guys and they do their best to please. Most of the install was very clean and well done, I gave them a pretty long check-list of items to get through as well.
They can get busy, but that is no different from any other boat shop/service center, especially if you drop your boat off in spring/summer as I did.
As mentioned, its been a few months now and nothing from the install has gone awry. Loving the new motor, should have done it sooner. If you're shopping, give these guys a chance, reasonable pricing as well.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ramiro L.Oakley, CA02Apr 12, 2022

These guys are the bees knees! Honest, helpful and full of knowledge. I entered the boating world with zero to no knowledge of what I was doing. They got me up and running to where I needed to be. I highly recommend Ryan and Gary they are what a business should be.

Park Presidio Marine helped me convert my inboard/outboard Mercury boat to a twin 150 Yamaha vessel. The price for the outboards was fair and their workmanship was excellent!! I would recommend Park Presidio Marine to all boat owners. Gary and Ryan are very knowledgeable and spent time explaining everything to me from the beginning to the end of my conversion.

Ryan has been first class working with our new to us boat. Since it's too big to tow and our boat is in bodega, Ryan was extremely accommodating getting us scheduled around good weather for the long run, and since then has always been available to give advice on DIY servicing when we can't make it down. They're a first rate operation!!!

I called Park Presidio in the morning looking for a part. They told me they didn't have it. I called a few more shops looking for the part and no one had it. A couple of hours later my phone rings. I almost didn't answer it because I didn't recognize the number. "Hello?"..... "Are you the guy that called earlier looking for the part?"....... "Yes, that was me."...... "I was digging through some parts in the back and found the part you are looking for." I picked up the part the next day. Nice service!! Thanks Ryan!

I work down the street from the Father and Son duo, I've stopped in and have purchased parts from them over the last 5-6 years... the industry that i work in demands excellent and quality service so when I decide to spend my hard earned money I take that into consideration as to where i do my shopping.
In my humble opinion both Gary and Ryan will do what it takes to make sure you get what you want and need, they also provide great service. so with that said it was not a question for me when it came time to by a new outboard that I was going to buy it from them.
Its really hard to find good service now days and deal with people that you can trust ESPECIALLY in the Marine industry!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
