We had purchased spark plugs for our Lund boat a few YEARS ago to have when we needed them. My husband installed them in our motor yesterday and took the boat out on the water. It ran poorly. When he did some investigating, it turned out the plugs sold to us were the incorrect part number. So, fingers crossed, he took them back to Blake's Marine. The parts department didn't bat an eye. They gave him the correct plugs and took back the incorrect plugs that we had installed AND used. What great service ! We totally expected push back due to the time frame that had gone by. Thanks for an awesome experience.

We tore up a prop while in Devils Lake and went there for a replacement. We were given the incorrect prop. Went back with our old prop the second time so they could match it up. No apology...just swapped it out for another prop. There were THREE guys there and we were assured this was the correct one. And on top of it, acted like we were bothering them. We put it on the boat and launched at a very busy Graham s Island ramp. We put the boat in gear to head to the courtesy dock and there was a horrible grinding sound. Had to pull the boat out and found out it was the wrong prop again!! We missed a whole day of fishing screwing around with this. We were through with Blake s and were just going to return the darn thing and purchase the correct one from Woodlands Marine, who had a very nice and knowledgeable person that answered the phone and assured us they had 3 of the correct ones in stock for us. Went into Blake s the next morning with the prop and again, no apology. SO DISGUSTED! If we have any issues with boat again, Woodlands Marina will get our business. They need a huge lesson in customer service!

We purchased a new boat here and we couldn't be happier with everything. The boat is Exactly what we were looking for, Blake's was great to deal with. Straightforward, no surprises and very accommodating. I would recommend this place for anything boating related.

Sold my mom a broken boat with the promise it was just fine, even took her for a test drive to prove it. Fell apart during the second run on the water, head gasket was blown in it for some time (as shown.. metal doesn t rot like that overnight) and was flooded. Heads for the motor was 900 alone on top of broken gaskets. Another marina didn t even want to fix it, wanted to charge 13,000$ for the repair. Conned her out of 10k. Wouldn t trust them at all, taking advantage of people like that.

We thought we may have a bad wheel bearing so we pulled in before hitting the lake. Philip stopped what he was doing and spent 10 mins checking to make sure we were good to go. Not many places are so friendly and accommodating. Great service we will definitely come back and highly recommend! Thank you!

Was in the Devils Lake area on a Waterfowl hunting trip from Minnesota when our group experienced a serious outboard motor malfunction. The motor issue could have ruined the whole trip. Called Blake's and spoke to Jake, he kept the shop open on a Saturday as we were 45 minutes away, waited for our arrival and did everything he could to get us back up and running. Really appreciate the service, professionalism and Jake going above and beyond the call of duty.

Way overcharged, for 2 boat trailer tires and 2 lights.. That could ve easily been a plug and play. They said they had to run all new wire, but it s the same as the other side that needed no work. I googled the tires and found them for $68 and some change.. The light wire was hanging, couldn t believe when I heard the total of $655!!Definitely regret going there!

Needed them to order up and replace some damaged decals for the side of my boat. They said they would get them ordered.That was 4-5 months ago. Still have never heard from them.

Very poor service. Was way over charged for work. They could not even explain to me why it cost so much. Boat still don't run right. I guess I had water in my gas and they charged me $450 to flush my injectors. When I called to drop off the boat that's what they figured the problem was without even looking at it. So the diag wasn't the problem. I felt bad for the guy paying in front of me that was charged $650 to find out he had a bad battery.

I give a big thumbs up to these guys. They were very respectful and Craig was beyond a nice guy to me. I will definitely do business with them again and would recommend Blake's marine to anyone.

I'm from Bismarck and have triple the boat dealers here and wouldn't dream of buying from anybody but Blakes. They are honest and definitely give you a fair deal on trade ins and new purchases, and they are friendly staff makes the decision easier.The guys also know there stuff when it comes to fixing and rigging boats also. When it comes to buying boats it's the only place I would consider doing business with and have bought multiple boats from them.

I will never step foot in this store again, absolutely zero customer service. I was warned by others, but took a shot for convenience. Never again. Ill haul my boat 2 hours from now on.

This is the biggest joke of a marine dealership ever. Kraig Blake is a crook. Would not take anything to this guy
