Everything from purchasing, to adding extras, sea trial, and delivery was a great experience with the folks at Bonita Boat Center. Greg from sales was fantastic, and the whole service team was great and did an awesome job getting all the electronics extras installed and working before taking delivery. Hats off to the whole team there and thank you.
It's all about the customer.
I would just like to take the time to recognize the outstanding friendly service that the staff at the Bonita Boat Center provided to my wife and I when were looking for a new deck boat. While on vacation to Bonita Beach we went into the Bonita Boat Center and decided the Nautic Star 243 DC was the one. Jeff our salesman was very professional and showed us all the options that the boat had and Joe one of the owners gave us a great price on our boat. Brandon in service did an excellent job in seeing that the boat was delivered to us in the best possible condition. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a boat to start here at the Bonita Boat Center. My wife and I love our new boat! It is truly an amazing well designed vessel. Thank you all for your awesome service and we will definitely recommend the Bonita Boat Center to our family and friends who are shopping for a new boat!
Bonita Boat Center will meet all your needs from sales to service, you got to check this place out, off the hook beautiful! Great staff too!
Your trained tech's are outstanding, Chad has a priceless ability to find issues with your boat, motor and acc's. In a timely manner. The new sales location is beautiful and easy to access. The old location (parts and service) is looking great all cleaned and freshened up. Making my living daily on the water with my boat and Mercury, your professional and factory trained tech's are priceless and appreciated! Thanks to the "CREW" Capt. Alex of Spot On Charters
Received an amazing service at Bonita Boat Center. I purchased a new boat and my experience with them has been fantastic.
Recently purchased a new gamefish from Bonita boat center everyone I dealt with was very helpful Also just had the 20 hour service done and hunter was my service advisor he is awesome
Excellent sales team and service department. I just got my new Sea Hunt. They were all very responsive
Ryan Thuener has helped me with multiple purchases. Always very professional, communication was great, and he cares about the customer, which is why I’ve come back so many times. You won’t be disappointed.
Bonita Boat has seem me through several storms now as well as my scheduled maintenance. I can’t speak highly enough about their service department. Service is done well and on a timely basis. Good people who actually care about your boat maintenance. Thanks Bonita Boat.
Andy was the sales rep and Ryan was the mechanic who performed the work. They created a space in their schedule to get my job completed before the weekend and in the end everything worked out well. I purchased a marine vhf radio/antenna that was installed.
Honest, efficient, and consistent.
Parts and Service are AWESOME!!! I didn't buy my boat there, but I wish I had. I explained the parts and service issues where I bought my boat, and my situation (not being in Florida) and they were happy to help... no questions asked. I'm an active duty service member, therefore my boat boat and I are both out of state, but that didn't matter. Cam and Hunter went out of their way to get parts shipped to me just as fast as they could get them in from Jeanneau. And that's no easy task since almost all of them have to come from Europe. Cam stayed on top of things and kept pressing to get them in and was always good to give an update even when I didn't ask for one. He also tried to give me a break on price and shipping whenever he could. I don't have the words to express my gratitude to these guys. When I'm in town to visit family I'll always drop by to say hello. Thank you so much. Keep up the great work!!
I recently purchased the Jeanneau Merry Fisher NC 895 Series 2, and I couldn't be happier with the decision. One of the standout features is the fully air-conditioned cabin, which has been a game-changer for comfort, especially on warmer days. The interior is well-designed, providing both functionality and comfort, making it easy to envision spending extended periods on board. I’m really looking forward to traveling and even living on this boat—it has everything I need to enjoy life on the water. The space is perfect for both relaxation and adventure, and the build quality is impressive. If you're considering a boat in this class, I would highly recommend checking out the Jeanneau Merry Fisher NC 895 Series 2. And, for anyone in the market, Bonita Boat Center made the purchasing process smooth and enjoyable with their excellent service and support. Mitch Fogelman
Bonita Boat Center has been my go to for our boating needs for years now. They provide professional service without surprises. My last visit Kyle was my service manager and he provided great communication and quick responses to all of my questions. The boat was returned days before anticipated with everything repaired and the price agreed upon. Highly recommended BBC.
Bonita Boat Center was amazing! Great Staff! No pressure and helped us get the right boat!! Nick and Brian were great to work with! We highly recommend Bonita Boat Center!
Bonita boat center is the best place to purchase a boat in Southwest Florida. The customer service and the variety of boats is unmatched. I bought my boat new from them and they service it for me as well and I have never had a better experience anywhere else. I highly recommend the team at Bonita Boat Center if you want to get a great boat and great service. Thank you again!
Andrew was super helpful and was able to fix my boat after trying to contact 10 other boat shops. Awesome people who just want to see your boat on the water and you having fun.
The surfgate on my Malibu and my ignition stopped working within weeks of each other. Due to low water levels, I couldn’t get my boat out either to bring it in for service. But, they sent Fred out and he was able to get everything working!!! We are so happy!!!
These people are great. Everyone from sales to service are very knowledgeable and most importantly HELPFUL. This is a model small business that treats you like family!
Great Service very easy to deal with, I will use again for my Verado maintenance
Friendly and informative throughout the sales process. Service and parts showed a personal interest.
Joe the owner, Nick the salesperson, Jason G and his crew in Service, and Captain Eddie who took me out for our seaworthy trial, delivered the boat, and patiently walked through it with my wife and I leaving no detail overlooked on what is a fairly complicated boat made this first time boat owners experience amazing. For those that have boating experience, that undoubtedly is helpful. Without any experience, the team gave me advice, what to modify, taught me how to park, how to treat the hull, how to treat hardware and every detail imaginable. Heck they stored the boat on their lot for 5 months and refused to charge me while I waited for my new lift to be installed. I would give this crew all the credit in the world for taking me from nothing to having some confidence. They still keep in touch with me and check on how I’m doing. If you are looking for a boat…start there. If you have no experience, don’t worry. They will take care of you. And for those with experience some of the models they carry are AMAZING. I got a 2023 Jeanneau 795. Its awesome. They took great care of me every step of the process. Steve & Beth from Punta Gorda (and Buffalo NY Go Bills!)
Can’t say enough positive things about the sales team at Bonita Boat Center. We worked with Parker and Jared and they were awesome. We felt treated incredibly fair and are super happy with our new Parker 2801! Highly recommend these guys!
I came down from NJ to check out a used boat. These folks were so helpful every step of the way. I purchased the boat and I had a few requests prior to finalizing the deal. Jarrod, Woody, Eddie, Daniella and Danielle all came through and made it all happen very easily. I highly recommend them and value the business relationship that we established. Thank you all for your help and your exceptional service.
Excellent Experience!
We got a brand new 2023 Crest and it is absolutely amazing!! We can't believe how quiet the motor is. The seats are so plush and easy to clean. Too many extras to mention them all. We had such an easy experience working with the team at BBC. Helping us from our boat that was totaled during Ian through the process of deciding on a new boat. We literally could not be happier.
We had the BEST experience ever! The contact with everyone was excellent. The boat we bought is beautiful and has so much to offer for an amazing trip out for the day. This is the quietest motor and the speed is fast enough to enjoy without needing a seatbelt, lol. Seriously, The sound system and lights to the speakers is of the best quality.The seats are super soft and so easy to clean. We added extension poles and thrusters and it already has an electric bimini. I love the feature of a spot for a cooler too. We had another boat with BBC and know already first hand that the service is top notch. We will always be a BBC customer and you should too!
I drove to Bonita Boat Center from Punta Gorda “to look!” However, I was met with so much professionalism initially from Parker (a natural talent) and furthermore, from Jarrod, Daniella, Jason, and Danielle. I simply felt like part of a bigger experience that I couldn’t resist. My interest from the start was the Creat line of tritoons and they found the vessel that was just right for my lifestyle. They took care of everything and continue to place an emphasis on my concerns and satisfaction. Parker is my go to guy and has yet to let me down! As previously stated, I was already in the market for a new boat, the staff at Bonita Boat Center was the immediate and clear choice for me. Thanks
Wow, these guys were like family when it counted. My boating experience was far better with Bonita Boat Center than without…. I love them….
Nice selection
Waiting patiently for our new Regulator 34. This will be our 3rd Regulator purchased from Jarrod and Joe at Bonita Boat Center. The entire sales and service crew are great. If you are looking to begin a long relationship with a group you can trust, you will find it here.
Woody is the best sales person ever, please ask for Woody, from Richard Boyce
About six years ago I purchased from them a preowned, 17 foot Boston whaler. I am a seasonal resident and I had no way to launch and haul the boat every year. They told me that they would be more than happy to do that for me whereas other Boat dealers said I would have to find someone else to do it. Long story short, I look forward to my boating season in Naples every year because Bonita Boat Center cares about their customers long after the sale is made.
One of the most beautiful things about purchasing a boat is walking into a show room with nothing but a bunch of beautiful smiling faces and reading you at the door it's like they don't even want your sale they just are happier there and happy for you to see your options to be in a boat any boat God bless If you're looking for a boat come see Daniela best sales rep in the game
We couldn’t be happier with the customer service we received! Highly recommend!
Great boats great price great service. Thank you guys
I recently purchased a 2022 23 Ft. NauticStar 250 HP from Bonita Boat Center. From discussion to sale to delivery, everything was outstanding. The orientation process was fantastic and I was truly impressed by everyone involved in the process. Thank You Bonita Boat Center!!!
Was greeted by Nick one of the sales reps. We walked a boat for about 30 minutes. He was able to answer every question I asked about the boat. Was not pressured to move forward. Inside was extremely clean and well laid out. As we entered the building Nick offered me a bottle of water. Very happy with my experience.
I called them in August thinking about buying a new boat but then decided to buy a used boat. I provided them with the type of boat I was interested in and in February they called me as they received a boat that match what I was looking for. The boat was in Great condition except the batteries were dead. They did a maintenance inspection and replaced them and we took it for a sea trial, all went well. The process from start to finish went smoothly. Everyone was pleasant and knowledgeable to work with from Danielle, who matched us with the boat, Brad our salesperson, Capt. Eddie gave us a informative sea trial and Daniella closed the deal. If you are looking for a boat I highly recommend calling them they took great care of us and I’m sure they will do the same for you.
Very knowledgeable staff at Bonita Boat Center. Brad took his time to explain a lot of different options for me with our families upcoming big boat purchase.
Top notch boat center and staff! My husband and I met with Brad Skelton. His love and knowledge of boating and boats was obvious! When he found out we were building on a waterway in Georgia and we would need to use a local boat dealer, he continued to spend time with us. He educated us, helped us figure out what are needs would be, showed us boats and then developed a boat profile for us to take to our local dealer in Georgia. If we could have, we would have bought our boat from Brad. We can not give enough kudos and would suggest you ask for Brad when visiting Bonita Boat Center!❤️
After using mediocre service companies for several years in Bonita, I finally found one the was top notch. Bonita Boat Center went beyond my expectations servicing my Grady White 270 Freedom. From the folks at the front desk to the technicians...everyone was really fantastic. I highly recommend them for your boat servicing needs.
Summer is awesome. She has been working with us for approximately a year helping us find the perfect boat. Yesterday she showed us the closest thing we have seen without having to have one custom designed. She has been great.
Great experience at Bonita Boat Center - My new Monterey was delivered clean, fully gassed and complete with all the required safety gear. My salesperson Brad was very helpful and followed up with me after the purchase. Closing with Daniella was effortless and professional. The sea trial with Capt Eddie was professional and very instructive. The seas were rough and I wouldn't have made it home via the intercoastal before dark so he arranged for a 2nd trial and delivery at a dock closer to home. During delivery the next week (my delay not theirs) Capt Eddie took the time to give my wife on water instruction and become comfortable with the boat. He also gave us great tips on suggested maintenance and recommendations on which products to clean and protect the boat. Great service guys - Thanks!
Last fall, after looking at boats at dozens of dealers, I had about had it. I was completely confused about what I wanted and really needed. Then I walked into Bonita Boat Center and quickly ran into salesman Brad. He was the 1st salesman to actually attempt to figure out what I was looking for. We went over all kinds of things about what I wanted and didn't. Then, Brad introduced me to the Head of Sales, Jarrod, who helped even more. The 2 of them knew exactly what I wanted and needed....The Regulator 26xo. They had one on the lot and I absolutely loved it, but it wasn't quite the one I wanted, so we jumped on the computer and designed the exact boat for me. After a couple of months, my boat showed up at Bonita Boat Center. Greatest day of my life. It's been a year and I still can't thank Brad and Jarrod enough for all of their help. It's the absolute perfect boat for me and I couldn't love it more. It really doesn't stop there either. The service department crew is beyond amazing. Every time I've had an issue, Gage has returned my call within minutes and follows through until every single thing is perfect. Then there's Wyatt, who's driven to my house to fix a few things right at my dock. I'm not kidding. Just incredible. All in all, I've never met a team, from sales to service, that's this customer focused. Best group of people I've ever met. I now consider all of them family.
Just purchased a 2020 Monterey 275SS and couldn’t be any happier with our entire experience at Bonita Boat Center! Brad was extremely helpful throughout the entire sale process and always kept in contact with us. Even today, a week after taking delivery, Brad checked in with us just to see how things were going. Daniella was awesome to work with all the paperwork and scheduling. She was always accommodating and made everything super easy for us even with our hectic schedules. The Sea Trial and Delivery was informative and very helpful with Capt. Eddie. He took his time and wanted to make sure we knew everything about the boat. And even Gage, in Service, has already reached out to us for our 20hr Service. We are so happy with the entire experience! It made buying the boat stressless and easy. Isn‘t that what you want when making a purchase!?!?!? Great job and thank you to everyone that helped make it that way! 👍🚤☀️
Outstanding dealership and service center. Great experience in purchasing a new Nautic Star boat. Follow up service and communication was phenomenal. Highly recommend purchasing a boat from Bonita Boat Center. Entire staff is excellent!
Very helpful and friendly!
Stopped in today to take a look at the boats. Met Brad, a salesman, he was extremely informative and helpful. Even though I wasn't able to buy a boat today he was able to offer some great advice. I would definitely recommend these guys.
Have to say I’m extremely impressed with Bonita boat center JOE did everything in his power to get me the exact boat I had been looking for and I was stuck on a certain amount I wanted to spend and he made it happen and helped me through the entire process without hesitation , Jared the sales manager took his time with us took us out to enjoy our new boat extremely knowledgeable and professional made us feel at ease with All the questions he answers in knowing we picked the right boat I sincerely want to thank them super excited about my NEW MONTEREY M45 definitely the Mercedes of boat lots of options and upgrades ( I own a car dealer so I’m not easy impressed However they exceeded my expectations)
Bought a Parker 2510 from them in October '19, went very smoothly. This week, got my 20 hour service done on the boat, twin Yamaha 200's. BBC picked the boat up at my marina, did the service, checked other items under warranty and promptly returned it to my marina within 48 hours. Daniella Rico kept in close touch with me during the service. Excellent care.

Excellent customer service and unmatched attention to detail. Throughout the dealership, these are smart, friendly, professional operators who know their business and know how to treat their customers. Very highly recommended for your next boat or servicing your current boat. Go see the BoatJunkies at Bonita Boat Center!
Bought a new 230 Dual Console boat. Great deal.
Great experience! Ordered a new Nauticstar and couldn’t be happier!
Just wanted to say THANK YOU to the guys who helped me out the other day! While I am not a customer of the Bonita Boat Center, I can attest to the character of the employees as well as the service manager, Paul Zettel. Last weekend my car broke down on the bridge next to their business. It was 98 degrees outside and I was waiting for it to get towed. Luckily the guys at BBC saw me and drove over to invite me inside to get out of the heat. They gave me water, a phone charger, and asked if there was anything else I need. They were SO NICE and willing to help out. It ended up being another hour before the tow truck came and I am so grateful they gave me a nice air conditioned place to wait it out. They are incredibly personable and kind! Thanks again! 😊
Great place wonderful helpful people
Your one-stop-shop for sales and service. Great customer service!
Jeff in sales was very helpful and responsive. The star of my experience was Kaleb who took me on a sea trial. He was patient w me as a novice boater and was extremely helpful and honest. When I took delivery the boat was clean and the stayed late for me as I was delayed coming in from out of town. I really appreciate all the people at Bonita Boat Center who made my first boat purchase a pleasure. Hopefully I’ll be back in the near future to trade up!
Recently purchased a 28 foot Parker from Bonita boat Center. I have owned several boats in my lifetime, many of which were purchased new. I have to say that Bonita Boat Center was one of the best dealerships I have ever dealt with. Very knowledgeable, very professional and most importantly, extremely accommodating. They also installed some electronics on my boat and did this in a professional and timely manner. I would highly recommend them if you’re looking for a new boat. They currently handle several lines of boats Including; Parker,Tegulator,Blackmon,NauticStar,Crest,Rossiter. and Monterey . Kudos to the Bonita Boat Center staff. Capt. Joe Greco
Purchased new Crest Tri-hull Pontine with 350hp Mercury and new trailer. Came to pick up boat but there were issues with the Trailer which should be dealt with by this Wednesday. Good service and get ready. Hopefully will pick up Wednesday. Happy so far.
Lots of nice boats
We bought a new boat from them in December of 2018. We live in Punta Gorda and their dealership is about 50 minutes away by car. They had the best price for the size of boat we were looking for with the options we wanted. We had looked at a lot of boats from Venice, Florida and south to Bonita Beach. We wanted something about 24-25 feet long with a head and Bimini. We also wanted a boat that handled well in rough seas. Also, they offered to come and pick the boat up at our house for routine service. The first two pickups of the boat are free. Since we had downsized from a 37 foot sailboat we needed a lot of information on transitioning to a power boat. For the 20 hour checkup they came to our house, got the boat off the lift, took it to a ramp, hauled it out, transported it, serviced the boat and returned it to our lift in Punta Gorda. We are extremely pleased with the sales and service they provided. They have owners and employees that are focused on keeping customers happy. if you are in the market for a new boat, go see everyone else and then go see them. Oh, I forgot to mention. We bought a NauticStar 243 DC. DC stands for dual console.
Daniella was extremely nice and helpful! Very knowledgeable
Great staff, great company, great owners.
I highly recommend Bonita Boat Center. My experience with this group was nothing short of excellent. Living outside of Florida, I was having a tough time shopping for boats. Jeff Starkman helped me through the process remotely, taking pictures and being very responsive to every question I had. Everything was done remotely until I came in for a test drive with Captain Scott Bechtol. His boat knowledge of every single area of the boat was so hepful. He was patient and not pushy. We were sold on the boat but even more so on the experience. Great outfit and great people!
It was a great experience and I love it 😍 I will be back next time to have fun with my friends and family
These folks are always very friendly and accommodating, even though I always stress I'm not buying. I very well may purchase from them one day, but being able to browse their inventory without heavy handed sales people is excellent. I hope they maintain this practice.
Great dealership. Home of Regulator boats. Family owned and operated.
Bonita Boat Center and Jeff Starkman, the Sales Manager at the Service Center were wonderful to work with. Jeff walked me through every step of the process and put my mind at ease. I wasn’t necessarily in the market for a boat, but when I pulled in and met Jeff at BBC I was drawn in and I couldn’t stop thinking about buying! His enthusiasm and knowledge was very impressive. I was not only sold by the vessel that he suggested but I was feeling good about the entire boat experience. As I go out on the water, I am so happy that I purchased the ideal boat for me. Somehow, Jeff knew after talking to me for a short amount of time that the NauticStar 243DD was my kind of boat! Mitch Fogelman
Really great people there really cool boats and they will work with you
Great service. Joey is a knowledgeable fun consultant who will go beyond to get you a boat if your dream
Jason Barnes went above and beyond for our family in every aspect. From sales, customer service, delivery, and set up of our new 243 DC Nautic Star. He is a high capacity, motivated, hard working, young entrepreneur! Thank you Jason for your spirit of excellence in everything that you do.
Everything from purchasing, to adding extras, sea trial, and delivery was a great experience with the folks at Bonita Boat Center. Greg from sales was fantastic, and the whole service team was great and did an awesome job getting all the electronics extras installed and working before taking delivery.
