Denis amazing! He’s professional, he’s personable, and he cares about quality work. In a world where so many repair shops keep you at arms length and charge you for every little thing, Interstate Boat repair harkens back to that old school idea of quality work for a fair price. He’s also in it to create a long term…

Dennis went above and beyond, I brought my boat there 2 times for different reasons, the first time he had it fixed and ready to go before we took it camping, other places had a very long wait time... the second time we had fathers day plans and I brought it to him hoping to have it back in time, the part came in…

Dennis is a great mechanic and an even better person! I bought a used boat that had sat for 3 years so I wanted him to go through the 150hp Yamaha engine and he did a great job of getting it fishing ready! He always kept me informed of what was going on and took my calls and questions with kindness, grace, and a…

The owner Dennis was professional and a pleasure to work with. He was quick and had parts in stock. Called up and was able to get repairs done the same day. Would definitely reccomend this shop to everyone. Will be coming back for all services.

I can’t say enough about Dennis and this shop. I am a first time boat owner and was hesitant on finding a place for my first boat getting serviced after sitting a few years upon purchase. I read a review online which stated Dennis had left the shop to go get a stranded customer off I-35 and I knew then the extra…

Interstate Marine and Outboard is the only place I will take my ancient boat. Not a lot of boat places in Bell County work on 30 year old boats. Dennis is honest and has the most competitive prices around. Even during peak season, he was able to do a two week turn around time. I highly recommend this place.
