Riverfront Marine Sports

I just picked up a new Parker 2120 Sport Cabin from Riverfront Marine yesterday. These guys ARE awesome! They delivered on every promise they made to me, the locked-in pricing during the manufacturing period and delivery was right on schedule. Beyond what was promised, they added an anchor, an anchor chain, an anchor lock, and a 200' anchor line. They gave me a beautiful canvas beach bag, a nice carrying case for all my paperwork and owner manuals, dock lines, dock fenders, fender lines, trailer guide posts, trailer license plates screws, a wiring adapter needed
to connect my truck to the trailer, a 1/2 tank of gas in the boat, put on my boat registration numbers, and a full coast guard package. All of these things were included at no add'l cost. The hitch on my truck wasn't quite right, but they adjusted it for me at no add'l cost. Their sales rep spent an hour or more with me going over the boat operation and electronics.

If anyone in New England (I'm in Vermont) is considering a new boat purchase, I highly recommend this dealership. Perfectly executed, excellent!

Astonishing experience over the phone. Having trouble with an old 80s Mercury outboard. Called and spoke to Lee in service department, after determining the cost of service would exceed the value of the engine, he spent a decent amount of time with me troubleshooting my issue and lending advice. Was able to work out my issue at no cost! Im ecstatic! Called over 10 shops today and no one would give me the time of day but these guys. I will be happy to give them my business when needed in the future.

Ive been coming here over the past couple months to get things for my new boat and i gotta say, the prices here are almost half of what they are everywhere else for most things. The staff are extremely helpful and nice as well. Last time I came in as of the writing of this, i was looking for a fuel line for an outboard motor I was looking at purchasing and I had no idea what to look for, so I asked somebody here if they could help me pick one out if I showed them pictures of the fittings and they helped me pick out the exact one I needed. All the while everyone is super friendly, and there is sometimes a dog walking around when I come in that is super friendly as well. The dog alone gives this place 5 stars. I've been going here for all my boat necessities ever since I first found it. (EDIT: I forgot to mention, these guys are the only decent boat shop in the area that I know of that offers a military discount, which is also awesome.)

I randomly called Riverfront Marine Sports a few weeks back because they're closer to me than West Marine and open on Saturdays (unlike an even closer marine store). I was wowwed as I spoke to a guy named Shane and realized his focus on extremely helpful customer service (believe or not, unusual in these parts). So I wandered over to the store and the degree of helpfulness was so over the top that I didn't hesitate to give them a shot at addressing a steering issue with my boat. I'm still waiting for the diagnosis. But I'm pretty confident they'll figure it out. It's a lesson on the big bit of difference just a little bit of positive energy can have on a customer's choice of vendor.

Very helpful parts department. Serious inventory of anything marine. If they don't have it, you probably won't find it anywhere.

I have been buying parts and boating needs for 30 years now and have always been treated well at the parts counter. They help with how to on everything I asked. Great shop

I am a first time boat owner and purchased my boat from and have had it serviced at Riverfront in Salisbury. To start, my experience buying the boat from them was positive. Nick guided me through which options made sense for me and which ones may not. No high pressure sales, just knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process. The boat was delivered right to my dock by Riverfront. They went through all of the features and included a safety kit so I had everything necessary to be on the water legally day one. Unfortunately, the factory neglected to include some of options I had ordered (no fault of Riverfront) which was realized on the day of delivery. Riverfront came back out immediately, took the boat back to their site, added the options and then brought boat back to my dock, all in about a day. Later, I had an issue with the radio and they did the same thing. They came out, took the boat, replaced the radio and brought the boat back to my dock. Dave in Service has been quick to respond, reliable and tolerant of my many questions as a new boater. I would highly recommend Riverfront for sales and service of your boat.

What an awesome experience! Sarah was extremely knowledgeable and helpful when it came time to purchase a new Chart Plotter/Radar. What was also impressive was that she didn’t try to sell me something that I didn’t need! Riverfront Marine Sports has a new repeat customer!

I've had Riverfront Marine work on my boat for the past 15 years and they have done great work. It is nice to feel like part of their family! They are very friendly and trust worthy. They are willing to listen and answer questions when you have them. They will step up when you need work done quickly.

Thank-you!

Great place with really friendly and helpful staff, the store manager Shane helped figure out which Bimini top would fit my pontoon, ordered it for me and it worked out great!

I have used Riverfront for as long as I've been a boat owner for all my questions and parts. Recently, I needed a service that they were not able to complete. Sarah went above and beyond to find another provider that could fulfill my needs. I will continue to use Riverfront for years to come. I suggest that others do the same! 10/10

Riverfront has always helped me get on and stay on the water. They offer prompt service at both of the locations (Salisbury and Newbury). They’ve winterized and serviced my boats for years and have always been responsive if there are issues impacting the boating season. Sarah has helped with new electronics, Dave and his crew commission and winterize my boats and the service team in Salisbury has responded to issues very quickly. I highly recommend Riverfront.

I bought my Cobia here in 2016 and have not gone anywhere else for service. In the past it was sometimes a struggle to get answers, but the work was always done right in the end. Ray has been a welcome addition. He did a great job communicating with me prior to my service, and followed up mid-service with additional recommendations that I went with. I feel at ease knowing I can bring my boat in pre and post season and know it is getting the proper care and attention. Thanks again to Ray, Sarah and the rest of the team.

We are so lucky to have Riverfront Marine in our town. They are such professionals and are the best at what they do. Specifically, it has been a pleasure to work with David over the last month to get our boat ready for the winter. He is patient with all of my questions, and explains everything in simple terms for me to understand; which is greatly appreciated.

Great experience and extremely helpful for the first time boat owner. I recently picked up a new trailer for my 1959 wooden boat and they took great care in putting it on and installing everything that was needed for me and the family to hit the water. All in in few hours too.

I would highly recommend Riverfront!

Ray the service manager got me in and out very efficiently for my Yamaha winterization. These guys are pros - and they’ve consistently done good work for me. They even appreciate wooden boats like mine. A+

The Riverfront Team has been great to deal with for service and other boating needs. I have found that they are up front with scheduling and timing of repairs and have always taken the time to explain options. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area.

Excellent service. Dave and the crew at Riverfront had my boat ready to go exactly when they said they would. I had a battery issue which they immediately addressed and I even received a follow up call making sure all was ok. Highly recommend.

I’ve been a customer of Riverfront for no less than 15 years. This past winter, I had to repower my 17ft Whaler (a boat I’ve owned and run every season since I was 15). They did a great job last season with the repower project, and again did a fantastic job this season with a laundry list of maintenance items. What a great team from Ray and the techs in service, to the sales team, from ownership to management. Another great experience at Riverfront Marine
Thank you all and happy holidays..

Ray in the service department couldn’t be nicer. He makes the (expensive) experience tolerable. Explains everything clearly and I have no doubt is completely honest when discussing work that needs to be done. I’d recommend Riverfront Marina for service/maintenance because of Ray.
