Sold me an item they don't have in stock
November 23, 2021

Purchased and item in September, was supposed to receive it in 3 weeks. Never received an update and now it's supposed to be shipped dec. 23rd. Don't buy from this company if you need it in a timely manner. Oh and the customer service is terrible.

Thank you for sharing your review. As an OEM dealer who delivers thousands of parts, we are unable to store all of them in our warehouse. So whenever we receive an order that we don't have in stock we make sure to provide an update on however long we expect the manufacturer to take in delivering us the part. We just can't determine how long the manufacturer will take. We are sorry we didn't get you the parts you needed in time and we hope you give us another chance!

Need a rush part. Paid expedited shipping. They sent it ground which will be 7 days. So I would avoid paying for fast Shipp ng and just expect it to show up whenever.

Horrible
October 27, 2021

Stay away from these idiots. Ordered Yamaha parts. First they told me 3 days, then a week and a half and now it's December 10th. I get it if it's a backdated part from the manufacture. But don't keep feeding me bull$#*!. Now they want 3-5 days to return my money.

We really apologize for the delay. Backordered parts are those parts we needed to order from the manufacturer. We don't get an updated list of what's available until we place the order from them. As for the refund, 3-5 days is the estimated processing depending on your bank provider. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you need further assistance.

Boat service
October 25, 2021

At one time I was a service writer and head mechanic ordering parts directly through mercury and OMC/bombardier the parts I get from boat net thay are fast and usually always in stock rarely ever wait more than a couple days which is as good as local marinas that I deal with but with better prices

Effeciency
September 3, 2021

I love Boats.net... I have a 1997 Yamaha 200HP outboard and I originally thought getting parts would be very difficult, with Boats.net it was a breeze. Correct parts, easy to order and efficient delivery. I highly recommend Boats.net.

You can't ask for a better vendor

Great customer service, knowledgeable staff, prompt shipping and very good prices. There is nothing more you can ask for from an on-line supplier. I won't shop anywhere else.

Pleasure to deal with.
August 28, 2021

I placed a on line order for the wrong part. Once received I realized I ordered the incorrect part and called customer service. The customer service person immediately sent me the correct part along with a return label for the incorrect part that I ordered. As soon as they received the incorrect part my credit card was credited for the returned part. Great people to deal with.

Great Company!
August 28, 2021

I already wrote one review but I guess you didn't get it. I ordered a starter kit for my Yamaha 0.9 4 stroke. Everything was shipped promptly and I was able to complete the install in about 3 hours. Great instructions in good English. I would definitely use this company again.

Boats.net has supplied our boat /jet ski rental business with replacement parts and accessories for over 6 years. They deliver parts on or before the estimated delivery date, or send an email update with eta if part is backordered due to whatever reason. There is a massive global supply chain issue due to covid & worker shortages which delays some items, no matter where you order them from,
So don't be surprised at the lack of availability of mfg parts. For instance, Our business recently took delivery of 8 new sea Doo jet skiis, (direct from manufacturer, not through boats.net) 2 of which came without the computer control for brakes/reverse, or the physical hardware that module controls, instead SeaDoo included a letter explaining that the chip shortage due to covid is affecting their ability to supply those parts and they would ship when available.

Also, boats. Net shipping is consistently less expensive than other sources, especially on power heads, lower units and other heavy/large items.

I have had nothing but exemplary service from boats.net and recommend them without hesitation to anyone looking to purchase boat parts and accys.

Other sites your not sure of getting the right part because of how the customer sees and interprets how he's looking the part up. With boats.net, if you have a model number or serial number for Mercury's you can look up the part and go to the schematics and see the part and part number. With this information I know what part I'm getting and at what price, plus it's an oem part so quality is never an issue. Your site is a very useful tool to us master techs and at home mechanics alike.

I have an old 1989 Force outboard, and to say parts are hard to find is an understatement. Fortunately, I found Boats.net because they have many parts I could not find elsewhere. They are very willing to assist you if you have questions... and their shipping department gets the parts out quickly. A excellent shopping experience.
