Body: We have been looking for a canoe trailer that was reasonalbly priced for quite some time. When I ordered it the delivery time was 2-3 weeks and we recieved it in 4-5 days. When I went through the boxes to inspect the trailer parts there wasnt a scratch or dent on anything. Thankyou Brian

Body: Overall Im satisfied with my purchase with DirectBoats.com. The ease of purchase and customer service were the most likeable qualities of making my purchase with DirectBoats.com. They offer several payment options and you can change your billing or shipping information quite easily by writing them a quick email or making a five minute phone call. Their customer service department was good about relaying the current status and location of my order throughout the shipping process. DirectBoats.coms prices were not bad but not the best either. I did manage to find lower prices elsewhere, but stuck with DirectBoats.com because of their stated quick processing and delivery time. When my boat did arrive I did find more of what I believe to be manufactoring deffects than what I expected, but none of the deffects were bad enough to have the canoe shipped back. The deffects were a series of what looked like burn/melt marks on the exterior of the canoe, none of which were very deep. My first trip out in my new canoe was very enjoyable, thanks DirectBoats.com!

Body: This was my first time purchasing anything bigger than software online. I was somewhat nervous. The site was easy to use. The info there was clear and consise. I found the style boat I was looking for. A (utility/fishing boat). A perfect fit for the lake I frequent. I hesitated to purchase any options or accessories due to my lack of confidence. I was soon to feel almost, silly for doing so. Customer service was excellant. My location is difficult to deliver to, so we had to make special arragements. I received at least one phone call to both make sure delivery was going to the correct place and to make sure I received the item okay. The staff was curtious and reassuring. They made my experience one of the best shopping ever. It was ten times better than any retail store I visited.

Title: Body: There is nothing in our state that offers the variety of boats and accessories. I researched a number of options, and feel that the boat I purchased had the options I was looking for. When it arrived, I was a little surprised that it was not shipped in a box or crate, but in a large cloth bag. There were some scratches on the bottom and one of the bow lights had come off in shipping, and a light bulb was broken, plus one of the main plugs was broken. Still, overall, the boat and accessories were in good condition and I found the people at Direct Boats to be helpful. I would do business with them again.

Body: We recently bought a boat through DirectBoats.com. We are happy with our purchase It was very easy to make the transaction and the whole thing went off very well. DirectBoats gave us good advice about the receiving the merchandise from the freight company and they were courteous and helpful when I called and asked a couple of questions. I would like to see them implement an online tracking feature, similar to some of the other online merchants Ive done business with. That would be good information for the customer and should cut down on calls to DirectBoats. We had a couple of smaller items missing in the package, but that was a problem with the packaging of the boat. We called the boat manufacturer and they made everything right. Again, it was a good experience and I would do business with DirectBoats again.

Body: I ordered a Pelican motorized boat from DirectBoats.com, and found the website to be very easy to navigate and the order was easy to place, although they do not accept Amex, which is what I would prefer to use. The boat arrived on time, in good condition, and we have been enjoying it. We are very happy with the boat, and were very pleased to have it delivered to our curb at a reasonable shipping cost, especially considering its size.

Body: The nearest boat dealers to me are about four hours drive. It would be difficult to drive there and shop for a boat and return in a long or two days. With Direct Boats.com I was able to look over several small boats and pick the right one from the comfort of my home. I picked a boat type I may not have been able to find in the boat dealers in the city, and had not seen at the few I had been to in the past. The purchasing of my boat and trailer was easy and all that was left was to go about my life until the boat arived. They best part was I was able easily to contact customer service via the contact us option on the web page and my questions and problems were quickly solved. So I say you can purchase from Direct Boats.com with confidence.

Body: I ordered a trailer to haul some kayaks for family recreation. DirectBoats.com provided the trailer I wanted at an excellent price. I paid $100 less than than what was quoted to me by the manufacturer. Before I ordered, I collected four quotes on the same trailer from different distributors. DirectBoats.com supplied the exact trailer at a great price in a very timely manner. Thank you for great savings and excellent service.

The certificate of origin was mailed to me before I even recieved the boat so I had it registered before I recieved it. The boat arrived to my door in great condition. There are some scuffs on the paint but I bought the touch up paint when I bought the boat so its all good. Thank you so much for a hassle free boat purchase, Matt.

Comments: Buying a canoe, I was concerned about shipping and damages, etc. It was shipped timely, received within 11 days by motor freight (even at Christmas time), it was packed in plastic, had everything I ordered. I expected quite a bit of scuffs and marks, had to be out of town, so explained to my wife what to look for. It was wrapped in plastic, and hardly any even scuff marks. Totally happy with DirectBoats, and with ABF motor freight.

Comments: I'm very happy with the shopping experience. I was contacted by customer service twice to provide missing information and both times was treated courteously and received prompt service. In addition, despite the missing info, I received my boat in about a week....which was great considering it's a Christmas gift for my husband!

Comments: Order and shipment processing was very fast. The sales staff was excellent overall and, specifically, was very helpful with advice on the charger needed for the boat. The only thing that could have been better is if we had been told in advance that an accessory would not received because of a back order at the factory.

Comments: THE ORDER WAS PROCESS IN A TIMLY MANNER AND SHIPPMENT ARRIVED SOONER THAN FORECASTED. THE ONLY NEGATIVE WAS NOT WITH DIRECT BOATS BUT THE WAY THE MANUFACTURE PACKAGED THE BOAT FOR SHIPMENT. THE BOAT WAS ONLY WRAPPED IN PLASTIC AND SOME SCRACHES WERE PRESENT ON THE HULL BOTTOM AS IT WAS DRAGGED ALONG THE TRUCKS FLOOR ( WHERE THE PLASTIC WRAP WAS TORN AND ABSENT FROM THE FRICTION OF IT BEING DRAGGED ). THE MANUFACTURE PELICAN BOATS SHOULD HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL MATERIAL BETWEEN THE HULL BOTTOM AND THE PLASTIC WRAP TO PREVENT THIS PROBLEM.

Comments: I ordered a boat and trailer. The trailer was delivered within 3 or 4 days of ordering and the boat arrived a little over a week later. I called Direct boats to inquire about the boat delivery and the person on the other line was courteous and helpful and provided me the carrier's info including a tracking number. There was a minor surface scratch or two on the boat, but that's to be expected as it was shipped from Canada (I think?) to Tennessee. I would've scratched it that much just getting it to the lake the first time. Overall a very good experience. I wouldn't hesitate to order from Direct boats again.

Comments: It was surprisingly easy to view the product online, and easy to order. It was delivered two weeks later. My only input would be to have an online tracking service, where I could see where my product was (geographically) and when it would be delivered. I had to frequently call to find out when the boat was actually coming.

Comments: I am very pleased with the manner in which DirectBoats.com handled my order. The product which I had requested was back-ordered and DirectBoats.com was very prompt about calling me and not only providing me with an update of the order status but they also offered me the option to change or cancel my order because of the delay. I appreciate their commitment to providing top quality customer service. I would definitely order from DirectBoats.com in the future.

Comments: I called DirectBoats.com for more information about a certain boat I was considering buying. The person I talked to was very knowledgeable about all the boats and suggested another boat which was a different brand but was built by the same manufacturer of the boat I was looking at and was actually the same model. This ended up saving me twenty dollars.

Comments: The delivery Co. called the day before and said they would be delivering the next day at noon. I arranged to be home at that time but when they didn't show by 1 PM I called. They said a driver had not shown up that morning and they would not be able to deliver until 5:30 or 6:00. I think they should have called me to let me know. Minor deal, everything else was super.
