Just bought a boat from Kara at Captain O’Connell. She and Captain Dan did a great job making sure everything went well with the boat. Their mechanic Rene is top notch too! They are old school which is great in my book. All fantastic people there. I would definitely recommend them!

"Home sweet home" for your boating needs! I've kept my boat at O' Connell's for the past 7 years, and the care and attention received exceeded my expectations. Receptive to my concerns, Cap't Dan & Kara are very quick to respond. They winterized her, stored her, tuned her up, repaired her, and launched her. Their fees are reasonable & their service is complete. Their property and your boat is very secure at O'Connell's. Recently, I sold my boat and they were extremely professional & helpful with the process. For all your boating needs, I highly recommend this family boat yard & marina. Don't look any further.... simply entrust them. Next best thing to family!

My husband and I went to them to buy a boat they had for sale. It looked exactly as portrayed, ran great, surveyed great. Kara threw in the short haul for free and Capt. Dan was wonderful on the sea trial. We look forward to a long lasting relationship with O'Connell's. No one in customer service can please everyone!!!! Smile and be happy!

They are the hardest working people I know. They bend over backwards to help everyone. Dennis B--I know you and don't know how you can sleep at night posting that b.s. I will never keep my boat anywhere else.

They do not stand behind there work. They promised me that my boat would be ready to pick up and 2 months later it still was not ready. They also told me they were going to do work to boat and nothing was done. Dan & Kara should be ashamed of they way they handled this situation. STAY AWAY !

Super great place! These people work HARD! Fingers dirty, sweat, the whole bit. I had a boat winterized and a part broke during the winter. They made good on it! The part came in 3 days later and it was done with a smile. Things happen, Especially with boats, thats why I'm glad there is a real business with old fashioned work ethics in place.
