Review of Buckeye Marine

Rented a boat from buckeye for the weekend . What a complete waste of a day , I was told that the boat would be dropped off at Gordon yacht marina at 9:15. So we made our way there across the pigeon lake on our jet skis and arrived at buckeye surf. Since this isn t where you pick up the boat, we had to make our way back to our cottage then drive out to buckeye marine. They did not clearly indicate this and since both carry the same name it can be confusing , so we wasted about an hour and a half of our day .

Now we finally pick up the boat and get on the water at around noon. The boat suddenly dies on us after about 15 minutes of use. We can t seem to figure out what the problem is, so we call Buckeye for assistance , well they weren t of much help. A good samaratin comes by after about an hour and we try filling the boat up with some fuel. The boat works again, we were given a boat without fuel!

Again after another 15 minutes of riding , the boat dies for the second time. Now we re really frustrated . After sitting on the water for an additional 2 hours , we finally get towed back to our cabin. Clearly there was an issue with this boat .

After speaking with Wendy , all they would be willing to compensate is a full refund and a jet ski rental but at the normal price . Way to waste our time !
