This place gave me the time of day for my 30 year old boat that every other shop just kept turning me down on. I brought my boat to them 2 weeks before the 4th of July weekend and I can t believe they were able to do an entire engine swap, with new helm, hydraulic steering, new ignition and throttle controls, in 8 business days. When I picked up the boat Kyle was very informative about the work that was done to the boat, and because he knew I was a new boater he went the extra mile and filled me in on how to properly operate the boat to not have any problems. I was on the water for the holiday weekend, and the boat ran like a dream.

Kyle at WOT was fantastic throughout the entire process. He kept me well informed about all of the issues and help prioritize the order of the repairs & the worst case cost. In short, the boat is back in the water earlier then expected, running better then it was before it had issues (I thought it was running good until I got it back from WOT....it s like a new boat!) & best of all the repairs were UNDER BUDGET by 35%. Which saved thousands of dollars- obviously it s a boat (bust out another thousand). I ll never consider another boat mechanic in San Diego.THANK YOU! My family and I are so happy to be out on the water for Memorial Day Weekend!!Services: Tune-ups, General repairs & maintenance, Accessory & electronic installations, Engine repair, Oil change

As a 15 year professional boater, I have had a reason to visit nearly every shop in Southern California at one time or another. Kyle and Cole at WOT Marine are just next level professional. Their shop is tight, their workmanship is detailed and thorough. They have exceeded my expectations with every service. They explain service options in advance and keep records to know what has been done to my vessel for years. Trailer work, vessel detailing, electronic equipment installations, they do it all and do it right. Not sure what to do or how much it will cost? Call and put your mind at ease. You will never regret it. Thanks guys for looking after me.

I took my boat in expecting them to have it a month due to all of the repairs that needed to be done. Within 2 weeks I had my boat back and it's better than it ever was. WOT went above and beyond my expectations. I cannot say enough about the quality of work and professionalism, also the fact that they had my boat in and out in a very timely matter. I would highly recommend this business to anyone.Services: General repairs & maintenance, Engine repair, Oil change

Cole and the whole team at WOT are awesome! Super professional and very friendly, they made time to explain the system for me and options available. They replaced my gimble bearing and did an outdrive service on my B2, checked compression on my engine and fixed a whole mess of odds an ends that helped get me back on water. Anyone in North County should go there, Support Local companies!!!

I would highly recommend WOT Marine! 3 days before a trip to Havasu my boat would not turn over. Panic set in that I would have to cancel. I scrambled and found WOT. I called and was able to drop my boat off that day. Kyle and his crew saved my trip by fixing the problem and were even able to squeeze in a scheduled service on the motor. I will 100% be back for any other needed boat service and maintenance.

I have been taking my boat to WOT Marine since they opened. I live in Carlsbad and have known the owners for several years as they were neighbors. They do excellent work at a fair price and have always had my boat done on time. I would never use another mechanic on my boat and I highly recommend them.Todd Williams

The staff at WOT are hands down the most helpful and straight forward people around. Aubrey has helped me source so many tough to find and old parts. Kyle freely offers advice and will help out any way he can. One stop shop!

WOT Marine has serviced our boat, to include doing fiberglass work and have done a great job! They picked up and return our boat and placed it back into our garage while we were out of town as well! Kudos for a job well done!

Family owned and operated. Good guys. Keep thier commitments. Much better than the tool bag that runs Cal Kona Marine. I would rather sink my boat then take it there again
