Very smooth service.fast turnaround
Getting the boat out of winter storage and tuning it up, i found a missing gasket on the engine airbox. The boat and engine are 26 years old so parts can be problematic at times. The engine is a Mercury 2 cycle, 3 cylinder, 40Hp. Got the part number from Mercury and started around to my usual local part suppliers. Nobody had them in stock but could order them from the factory and have them in 10-12 days. I had checked Boats.net and their price was a little better than my local suppliers and their delivery promises were a bit more optimistic than ordering from the factory. So I figured what the heck, I'll give Boats.net a try.
I placed the order the morning of March 23,2026 and it was delivered at 8am on March 26,2026. Needless to say, I was impressed! Especially that it was delivered by a man in a nice, new Cadillac.
I don't think Boats.net would want me to hold them to that level of performance on every order but it was outstanding. The order was for $5 worth of gaskets and they could have just as easily slipped them into an envelope and put a postage stamp on it. Instead, the impression of their order entry and processing system this order gave me is that I will have no question about using them again and recommending them to others.
Products easy to find. Call to tech support was easy. No long wait. Very knowledgeable and friendly Tech support
Lots of Yamaha OEM parts with great pricing and discounts.
Shipping was phenomenal, arrived earlier than said and well packed!
I have used boats. Net several times. There web site makes it fairly easy to navigate to look up parts. I have also called in the past and they are very helpful. Unfortunately for me, parts are getting harder to find for my 1997 Honda 90 hp outboard. No fault of boats.net either. They are my go to online shopping for motor parts. Fair price and shipping is fast.
Ordered an alternator for out boat. We have not actually been able to try it yet but the service and delivery were great.
I've been buying from Boats.net for at least 8 yrs. Easy website to use with great schematics. Shipping has always been very timely and reasonable prices as well.
After receiving the wrong parts I contacted customer service and explained the situation and was sent a return label. While on the phone with customer service I ordered what was supposed to be the right part and somehow was again sent the wrong part. Not sure what the issue is but this is unacceptable!
Prompt and efficient. Went through another dealer and even though I gave them the correct part number, they sent me a different part. Boats.net got it right the 1st time
Excellent prices, OEM parts, Big selection of Parts and really fast shipping. I will definitely buy here again. Thank you.
Local mower shop back ordered my part. Still not available after one month and no projected delivery date. I then ordered the OEM part from Boats.com on a Monday and it was delivered the following Saturday.
As advertised, quick shipping and quality correct parts.
Had everything I needed to rebuild the lower unit and carbs on my 1999 Yamaha 40hp outboard. Customer service folks I talked with and asked questions were very nice and pleasant to deal with. Shipping was pretty quick too. Overall great experience
Boats. Net has the best designed website for identifying the exact parts that you need and the checkout process is easy to follow and complete.
Parts shipped the same day, and they arrived in perfect condition.
Boats.net always comes through for us here at Lewis Boats. Always friendly, items show up on time sometimes earlier than expected. They even sent us a swag pack!
Boats.net has always had my needed parts, at comparable pricing. Prompt service, very quick at shipping the product. Only bad thing in shipping is using, USPS for carrier. Very unreliable shipping source.
Website is easy to navigate, appreciated the free delivery plus an inexpensive cost adder for expedited delivery.
Had the parts I needed in stock. Was only expecting it to have certain parts in the package, but it was the whole set for the piston. And then was on my doorstep 2 days later! The fast shipping is what I like the most.
