Reviews of Dougs Boat Sales in Victoria

Buyer BEWARE! If I could give 0 stars I would! I bought a “tested” Honda 50 from Doug recently for $3500 and tried it out a month later. The motor did not start so I paid a mechanic $500 to look into it. The carbs were gummed up and also needed tuning. Doug would not stand behind his product and blamed the gummy carbs on me for waiting a month. The mechanic fixed this issue ( at my expense) and then the tilt / trim down would not work. Doug blamed me once again and refused to make things right. I paid the mechanic a second time to fix this issue and the motor will not rev up when going through sea trials. The boat will not get up on plane with this “tested” engine. The previous motor ( a 40hp Honda ) did this easily. When questioned Doug gets defensive and (weirdly) aggressive but he does not stand behind what he sells…. and from my experience we have been sold a $4000 lemon. If you are looking for a lemon coupled with the shoddiest customer service see Doug.
