I've made an appointment to have the boat serviced with Concept Marine.
Anybody have any opinions/experiences good or bad with them?

Concept is owned by friend of mine, John Cogan. Real nice guy and good businessman. His shop is right next door to TRG Custom Fiberglass, owned by a board member, Toddnjuzz, also another good guy to work with.
your boat is in good hands.:)

Not really just my opinion. Was when he was at previous shop. Use GT marine or Prime Marine both in the same area

Can't. I called Prime Marine today and they are booked until late June. I need the boat back before Memorial Day.

I hate to call BULL SH*T but ive delt with John and he has always been a straight shooter and a great guy to deal with. Let me guess you wanted a blown motor that made 1000 hp and a three year warantee for half of what was quoted!

The term "Crook" to me seems pretty harsh, wich tells me one of two things,...either you were unhappy with the work he did for you (while @ the other place), or he personally ****ed you!
You seem to have the "Stones" to go on a public forum to bash him (wich is kinda like that neighbor who likes to leave notes on your car and not lead on to who it really is?...) why dont you have the stones to go into detail about why you seem to think he is a crook! (As you so,....HARSHLY claim!)
I have known and worked with John Cogan for quite a few years, i have never seen him screw not ONE person out of his shop (Concept Marine 909-447-4455) My glass shop is right next door to his and the reason why i am comming to his aid here is because he is not only one of my closest friends but a damn good business man, Hot Boat online can really screw up someones day just by using the term "Crook"...so in closing, i call Bullshiet too!

You guys here on these boards have to understand that one bad post from a "customers friend" can be trully detramental to a business owner and his potential customers, people usualy take comments for face value but there's the others that will take these comments and run with it, there you have a business getting "SLAMMED" wich is what was starting here!
Thanks for realizing that you were in the wrong and re-thinking your comments about John Cogan @ Concept Marine 909-447-4411!
Nobodys but is hurt, just a little chafed! lol

Hey Todd i understand were you are coming from. And as for slamming anybody's buss is not my style. Thats why it was a one word anwser and i didnt go into depth on the situation. Wich was along time ago that's why i didnt feel it necessary to go into details and bash anybody or there shop. As far as being in the wrong. Well its an opinion. And you know the saying they are like assholes everybody has one!!!!! Oh and i dont eat POP CORN big doug. But thanks anyway

Well, I will stand up for John, and say that I am a completely satisfied customer. He does a lot of very nice work, and every time I have been in there, he has been nothing but upstanding and honest. I got exactly what I was promised, when I was promised. He built my motor for me, and I have been extremely happy. My boat will go nowhere else. Wizard, you will be satisfied!
I have seen everything from a 39' Outer Limits to a 16' fishing boat. They work on all of it, and have happy customers. Even if Blown Howard did have a bad experience, he did mention that it was at another shop. John used to run another shop, and maybe the choice he made that upset this particular customer was only a reflection of what he was told to do. None of us know the whole story and obviously Blown Howard does not want to share, but it was a long time ago, obviously. I did not see anybody post anything negative about Concept Marine, and I believe you will be hard pressed to find an unhappy customer.

I to am a very happy customer, john will talk to you about what you need and not what would make him the most money. he is probably one of the only people in the boat business that will not talk to you like you have to be a baller to have your boat worked on here.:D

Machinehead, you smarta$$. Ok, Concept Marine built my motor. Sorry for the confusion. A very wise man named Kevin was my engine builder. I guess I should have watched my wording a little better. Never the less, I am very happy!
