I bought a 02 EBBTIDE 8+ years ago. I take the boat out at least 2-3 days a week during the season. Tom has been the only one to work on it, and has kept it in extremely great running shape! I must tow at least 1-2 broken down boats to the docks per week.. but never mine!! I thank Tom for that!
Like most people, I loath to have someone repair my (anything)... Normally you get piss poor service, and a big bill.... With Tom, you get someone who is honest and right to the point. He might charge a little bit more then the random craigslist ad... but as my pops always told me... You get what you pay for! I pay Tom, he fixes my boat... I don't have any problems afterwards... People say boats are expensive to upkeep... I guess I got lucky and found a good used boat and one hell of a boat mechanic that keeps my boat running GREAT

I've used Wake Falls Marine for years. My boat runs well, and service and repair work has always been prompt, thorough and well explained.
Mostly they work on your boat at your house or boat slip. They will also work on a boat you bring them in the early spring on late fall.
They do not work on newer Evinrude engines, as the motors are only repairable by authorized dealers.

I have been a customer of Wake-Falls Marine for several years and have experienced nothing but exceptional service. They always arrive in a timely manner and the work they do is quick and efficient. My annual spring tune-up/maintenance appointments have kept my Mercury strong for years and will do so for years to come. Not only is the price right but the convenience is second to none.
After a mishap while towing about 6 years ago, a neighbor suggested these guys that would come to the house to work on my boat. I have been a customer ever since! Gone are times when I must wait 3+ weeks to get on the water while my boat is in the shop. These guys will come to you and will be in and out before you know it.
Whether I need my yearly service or if I needed major work done, these are my go-to guys. Over the past six years, the piece of mind and the convenience they offer have made me a customer for life and has made Wake-Falls Mobile Marine my first and only recommendation for a marine mechanic in the triangle.

I brought my boat to Tom for a Tune-up on my motor and to find and correct a small gas leak. He did his normal tune-up and fixed the small leak. I took my boat to the lake and found my strong powerful motor was now gutless and kept stalling. I called and Tom met me at a lake to check and take it for a test run. He said it seemed fine but it could be this for $400 or this for $300. Since he had already charged me a few $100's more than his estimate I wasn't going to give him another dime.I ended up take my boat and motor to someone else to correct what Tom did to my motor.
I would not take my boat or motor back to Tom ever again.

Tom has been a stand up guy and is highly recommended. He resolved various issues on our 2006 Supra boat and charged next to nothing compared to what I've experienced in the past. I've had him do small odds and ends since that ticket and the service and price have been spot on. Highly recommended.
