The service couldn’t have been better and the team nicer. Honest and reasonably priced. Mike and Michelle were very helpful and extremely competent. I highly recommend.
Mike and team take pride in their work and get the job done correctly. They are refreshingly capable and care about what they are doing. They take pride in helping their customers get back on the water in order to create memories.
I found this place by accident and glad I did. We have an older 2014 G21 that was diagnosed for needing a new engine. Upon proper diagnosis it only needed an exhaust manifold and did both to be safe. It saved our summer and I highly recommend this place for any engine work. Mike and his crew know their stuff. Thanks…
Mike took the time to explain the ins and outs of taking care of my old boat. Very knowledgeable and personal. Loves boats!! His receptionist (forgot her name) is also extremely helpful.
Great work, great people, and fair prices. I totally recommend Colorado Custom Marine.
Wow! If you are on the fence to take your boat to the mechanic or not, this is your sign you need to! And take it here! Mike and his lovely wife Michelle made things so easy. They explained the process to us, took great care of our boat, and took time to answer our questions. We will definitely be going back to them…

Getting your boat back up and running was one of the biggest victories for us this year and such a fun project. Thank you for sharing your experience and for the epic photo!

It saved our summer and I highly recommend this place for any engine work. Mike and his crew know their stuff. Thanks again guys!! Another thing happened and ended up being a defective manifold that he was able to get warrantied just like the big name dealers. This place is great

Mike does a great job. They communicate well, and do what they say they will do. i trust him 100% to take care of my boat.
Thank you so much!
You know when I initially contacted Colorado Custom Marine they made me feel so welcomed made me feel as if i was apart of there family and they were going to take good care of me!! ive told them about situations that I've had with mechanis in the past and getting taken advantage of by these people and they assured me that i would be well taken care of! That has not been the case at all with these guys i feel now the same way with them as i felt with the other guys! I took my boat in what seems like about a month and a half ago now and they assured me the work that needed to be done would be fast and simple because i had did most of it myself when i called them they them self where like wow this has been here a long time !! I told them i had a budget and they went past it ive had no updates there communication really sucks ive emailed them with little to no response i really feel like I've been pushed to the back of the bus with these guys i understand parts get lost from delivery but parts came in a week ago and still haven't heard anything a week later i am definitely never coming back and i would not refer this company to anyone i know next time i will be going with there Competitor my experience has absolutely not been a good one with Colorado Custom Marine!!! And i still don't know whats going on with my boat!! And am now afraid that i wont be able to afford to pay for the cost!!
"We appreciate your feedback and understand your frustration regarding the timeline. Due to the age of the 1984 vessel and the fact that the engine was delivered disassembled, "Non-Running" this project has required an extensive diagnostic process. We are navigating significant corrosion within the wiring and correcting previous repairs made with non-standard parts. Our priority is ensuring the boat is truly seaworthy and safe before we release it to you. We will continue to provide updates as we source the necessary components and resolve these underlying issues
I received a very good explanation of what was going on and what needed to be replaced on my boat trailer. After repairs where done. It was the 1st time I was able to back my trailer up with out having to use a cheater. They also replaced my water pump. Thanks i will return.
Thank you Jon! Glad to be of service
I wouldn’t go anywhere else! These guys know what they are doing nothing but good experiences here.
We're so glad we could help you out! Thank you for sharing your story!
