Complaint Review: Raleigh Marine

Stay away from this repair facility, they will absolutely rip you off..there is the mechanic John and the book person..money person, Mary.
Just one example:
I had a starter go out in my single engine I/O wellcraft. It was repaired with "rebuilt" starter motor. I had already bought a new boat so this one went into dry storage on the trailer and was listed for sale. in addition to doing the starter he decided to paint the engine..and then the carb needed to be rebuilt..and then the steering cable repaired..none of these issues were present previous..but I had the repairs done.
$350 for the install of the starter..$315 to rebuild the carb $130 to lube the steering cable..and the 3rd time that the boat was started ..the rebuilt starter failed.
I took it to a REPUTABLE dealer who is replacing the starter with a new one for less that Raleigh charged me for JUNK.
oh yeah..I called John who said bring it in and we'll see..but "Mary" called me 5 minutes later to say that there was no warranty..so I decided to not go in for anothe screwing..who knows..with another vit to that place I might have needed an engine replacement!
