"Honest, Fast, and Good: It is so rare to find an honest mechanic, especially a boat mechanic. I needed my starter replaced on my boat. I went to a boat dealer and after
waiting 4 weeks to get an appointment they gave me an estimate of $900 to replace the starter. I found Jason at The Yacht Doctor, he took my boat the next day, had
the starter out and replaced three days later, all for $300. The boat is working perfect. I look forward to giving The Yacht Doctor repeat business. It was a pleasure
doing business with them!"

"The Yacht Doctor is the best yacht service we have used. We have had excellent service for routine maintenance, and for tricky engine problems. Jason is reliable and he
never leaves without understanding the problem and providing the most cost effective solution. We are very happy with the quality and dependability of the Yacht Doctor."

“When I moved my boat from Marina Del Rey to Ventura Harbor I didn’t have a clue who to turn to for my boat mechanical and system's maintenance. I was referred
The Yacht Doctor and have been exceptionally pleased over the past four years. Jason looks after my CAT 3208’s like a “Dr.”, and if I ever have a plumbing or electrical
problem, he sorts it out in a jiff!”

"...the best boat mechanic in Ventura/Santa Barbara County....Jason has worked on all aspect of my boat, a 35 foot, 1999, Bay liner, overhauled my dingy outboard.
There isn’t any aspect of the boat that I would not ask Jason to look at first. He knows I take long runs to Avalon and need to feel confident that everything will work.
The fact that Jason is knowledgeable is important, but frankly what I like most is that he does what he says he’s going to do; if he says he’ll be at the boat at 10, he’s
there at 10. If things need to be coordinated with the yard, and Jason says he’ll take care of it, you can count on it getting done. I like being able to call Sarah, Jason’s
wife, and know that she will schedule work to be done."

"I have always been impressed with Jason's professionalism in his approach to maintaining our boat Chardonnay. Being an out of town boat owner can cause some concerns
with the condition of various systems one finds on a boat. With Jason checking everything on a regular basis, I never have cause for concern.....I know the engines will be
in top shape ready to go, and that goes for everything else on the boat as well. If Jason finds anything on his monthly inspections, he always calls and lets me know what he
has found and what it will take to correct the problem. As a boat owner I could not ask for better service and more attention to detail."
