I have used Boats.net for years for routine maintenance and not-so-routine repair parts for my 1990 Merc 200 XRi. They have always shipped promptly and at a very competitive price. Inquiries are answered quickly too. If I can keep that old engine running for thirty years Boats.net and I have to be doing something right!

Satisfied Customer
September 21, 2020

I had previously ordered the part from another company (crowleymarine.com), and after waiting over a week with no shipping confirmation I called Crowley and was told that the part was not in stock and that they had no idea when they might get it, I cancelled the order with Crowley. I ordered the same item from Boats and had it in my possesion within a week. I am very satisfied with the service that I received from Boats.net.

Frustration into admiration
September 11, 2020

After much frustration trying to save money on eBay and having no mechanical experience with boat maintenance, I sucked it up and paid a slightly higher price at Boats.net with which I gained their technical support and expertise! Trust these guys, they know what they are doing! After attempting to replace my starter for 6 weeks, one call to boats.net and they sent correct starter and selinoid and project completed In 2 hrs! I highly recommend this company!

Hi Danny,

We are happy to hear that your experience was excellent and you are satisfied with your parts. We don't think you need to spend a lot to get high-quality OEM parts for your boat which is why we offer a price match guarantee, which means if you can find the part cheaper online we'll match the price down to the dollar. We hope this gives you even more of an incentive to order from us in the future and we look forward to your next order.

Great Inventory
September 11, 2020

I live in a small village on Lake Gatun in the Republic of Panama. There are lots of locals with old 80's and 90's small outboards of all makes. All of them have lots of hours as they use them daily on their cayucos (hollowed out log canoes) to commute to and from their homes and haul farm products and supplies around the lake. I have been ordering parts from Boats.net for about ten years for these people and they have never let me down. Their online catalog has allowed me to order all sorts of parts that are not even available in Panama. I have only had to call them a couple times but on those occasions the people I spoke with were knowledgeable and helped me sort out identifying the specific part. I recommend Boats.net to others as the go to store to find outboard parts.

The thermostats and gaskets I purchased came quickly and were OEM. My engine overheated on my last ocean fishing trip. Boats.net included a narrative before my purchase that first check the tell tail stream. It was good. Then check the thermostats. They were corroded. One was struck closed and the other opened. I really appreciated
Their information. I've purchased from them before and will again.

I have never had any problems ordering from boats.net We purchase from them frequently and have always been happy with the prices and the shipping. This year has been tough for anybody in parts/retail. Items are on backorder from the manufacturers to the distributors. Backorder dates constantly change. I've never had a problem with boats.net shipping or customer service. People need to remember we're in a very strange time right now. Shipping delays are probably not their fault.

I placed an order on their website for a propeller. My card was charged and then received an order canceled email with no explanation as to why they canceled it. I had to call to find out they no longer had stock. However the propeller is still available under that PN and another part number on their site to place orders against. They tell me my refund will take 7 to 10 business days. In the mean time I have to order a propeller from somewhere else.

Hi Heather,

We are sorry for the inconvenience, there is sometimes a disconnect between the shipping status shown on our site and the updates we receive from the manufacturer. We appreciate your feedback and we will update our site as soon as possible. We hope you find the propeller you are looking for.

Hi Chandler,

We are sorry for the delay with your order. Fast shipping is important to us as well and we work hard to deliver you your parts as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, sometimes parts are on backorder and we rely on the manufacturers shipping estimates when providing shipping updates which can sometimes lead to inaccurate status updates. We sent you a private message so we can look into your order and give you an accurate update.
