I would like to say thank you to Chris Mace and the test lake operator and staff for making my recent prchase go so smoothly. Having owned new boats before from dealers Chatlee is top notch from start to finish. Would I recomend or purchase another boat from them? Yes. Again, thanks.

On behalf of the Woodlake Lake Committe, I want to thank you for providing boat winterizing services again this year in Woodlake. We know we can always depend on your technicians to do a complete and professional job. The fact that you take the boats out of the water for service is very important. By doing so, there is no chance of spillage in the lake. In that respect, I would like to give the highest compliments to Tom and Ryan. They never make a mess, are super efficient, and are always respectful and attentive to the boat owners.
Thank you again. We look forward to a continued relationship with you and Chatlee Boat and Marine.
Sincerely,
Mary Larsen
Chairman, Woodlake Lake Committee

I just wanted to let you guys know I am VERY pleased at this point with my boat from you. I have only had it for 2 days however the way I was helped was VERY professional and was an enjoyable experience buying my first boat. I want to thank you guys and Marc Zimmerman again for everything and I will be telling EVERYONE to come your way for boats and service.

Just wanted to say thanks for the effort in putting my Dad and I into a new Carolina Skiff. Kipp Thompson was our sales rep, I was very impressed with his no nonsense straight forward approach, his professional attitude, honesty and courtesy. Refreshing in today's world to not have someone try to blow smoke you no where at every turn. I was great dealing with your company and I will not hesitate to send business your way.

We want to thank all of the people we dealt with at Chatlee on the purchase of our boat. Everyone was courteous and friendly. Taking the boat out on your lake was definitely a positive point and shopping for accessories wit the 20% discount was great. We took the boat out yesterday for a couple of hours...mainly to seat the rings but we did stop to catch a blue or two...we are completely satisfied with the Triton 177 from Sea Hunt and the electronics you installed.
Thanks again for your service...we will definitely recommend you to our friends and family...

Your service from Jason over phone to Bob who picked up and returned the boat was absolutely second to none. I was shocked, the boat was picked up on Wed and recall work done and returned on Friday, the Friday before Memorial Day. Everyone at Chatlee should be proud of the work they do, it is ixceptional.

We are very pleased with the service Chatlee provides, along with the courteous and professional manner. Your associates are always eager to help in any way. Even when the store/shop is busy, they try to spend as much time as possible answering our questions and concerns. This is the first boat we have owned, although we have been using our parents boat for many, many years. We are very pleased and would highly recommend Chatlee for its watercraft, as well as its friendly customer service.
Have a wonderful day!

On a scale of 1-5, I would rate Chatlee a 10. Everyone has always been very courteous and helpful. When I visit Chatlee, I am treated like family.

It has taken awhile but I wanted to send an email after I had taken the boat on a good solid trial run. Unforunately, the winds in Key West were uncooperative up until last Saturday when my wife and I finnally go her on the water for a few hours of break in time.
First, she's gorgeous. She arrived in perfect condition and was just as beautiful as the pictures. She started first turn of the key and all the accessories worked flawlessly. I broke her in for the first 3 hours in accordance with the manual and she handles like a dream.
I've got my first fishing trip planned for this Saturday and if luck come my way, I'll send photos up your way to post to other perspective customer. I'm hoping for a 40+lb amber jack and maybe even a few tuna/mahi.
Than you for taking the time to contact me personally when my original email got lost in the electronic world of spam. My wife and I could'nt be happier with the boat purchase and how professionally you all treated us.
Andre Carnegie says that the definition of a good deal is when both parties walk away happy. I certainly did and I hope you were just as happy.

The service department is very professional and went way beyond my expectations. The young man who helped, Joel, was very helpful making suggestions to me. Your service department is the reason I would recommend to friends looking for boats or for service on their boats!!!

You provided me with a positive experience. I brought my Carolina Skiff 198 DLV Elite in for warranty work on the deck lids. Due to an on-going problem with water in the fuel, I asked to check to see if any water had accumulated over the winter. Even tho the gas appeared to be fine, your service department went ahead and installed, at no cost to me, a non-vented fuel cap and fuel vent assuring me that rain water will no longer enter the gas tank. A very pleasant surprise that eliminated a significant concern that interfered with our enjoyment of the boat. Nice job and thank you!

Great service as always. I think the fellows name was Joel that waited on me. Joel is always very informative. While having the boat winterized this past Oct, I asked about adding on a water separator filter. Come to find out my boat already had one and I was not aware of it. Y'all were very honest with me. Some places may have charged me for putting one on and I would had never known. That means a lot. So when that day comes for a bigger boat, you can bet on where I will buy it! Its also worth the drive from Gastonia for service!!! I will not only recommend service but will recommend to my friends when they are purchasing a boat to see you all!!

I have purchased new boats from several different dealers in the past that were a little closer to where I live. The one issue I always ran into was that the dealer did not have all the people in place to perform any and all reparis needed in a timely manner. You far exceeded my expectations on gettting my boat motor serviced and also repairing the gelcoat blemishes in the time frame the service gentleman told me. Your gelcoat person did a great job on all of the blemishes and I am very satisfied. I generally do not like to bring my boats in to the dealer for general services because it just always took way to long to get it done. your guys did a great job and did it on time. That mean a lot and I plan on bringing it back for all future service work. Thanks

Chatlee service department listened to my concerns on my boats problems carefully. Then for a price that I thought was too good to be true, they gave my boat back better than new. Chatleee service department went the extra mile for me and that's why I will always be back. Great Job Chatlee! See ya soon for repair or my new boat.
