Tom SJames/Reel Southern has earned my highest possible recommendation. James handles all maintenance, repairs and accessory needs for my Key West CC. He is punctual, professional, proficient, passionate, patient with all my questions and dare I say a “perfectionist.” Here’s a couple examples: 1) I just had a leaking boat emergency and James responded immediately which saved a planned fishing trip with my daughter. 2) James installed a trolling motor with a dedicated 24v lithium battery (absolute beast) and his price was super competitive. Great price and confident that I’m getting the highest quality service ? That’s when I knew I had found “my boat guy.” Bonus: James is knowledgeable and passionate about his work. I have learned a lot of very useful information and practical tips & pointers for me as a boat owner.
