Upon arrival you're greeted by which seems a run down out of business boat yard.. there's weeds everywhere and rodents running in the parking lot. Once you get in to their "showroom" you'll find a clutter & mess of everything you'll need to go boating, which is great. There's boats and cars everywhere.. I'm not sure how they'd get anything out of you were hopeful for a boat in the center.

I recently had the pleasure of purchasing a 2003 Baja boat from Inland Boat Center in August 2023. The entire experience, from start to finish, was nothing short of outstanding. Not only did I find my dream boat, but the exceptional service and support I received from the entire team truly made this journey unforgettable.From the moment I arrived, the staff at Inland Boat Center showed unwavering professionalism and a genuine commitment to customer satisfaction. Gary and Taylor in Sales went above and beyond to ensure that I found the perfect boat to suit my needs. Their expertise and enthusiasm for their work were evident, making the boat-buying process a breeze.Tori in Finance handled all the paperwork seamlessly, making sure I understood every step of the process. Her efficiency and attention to detail were greatly appreciated, and she ensured that I got the best possible financing options for my purchase.The exceptional service didn't stop there. Howie, the Captain, provided me with valuable insights and tips about my new Baja boat, ensuring that I felt confident taking it out on the water. Cindy in the Parts department was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me find the right accessories and parts to enhance my boating experience.The true test of a company's commitment to customer satisfaction is how they handle unexpected challenges. During my 1300-mile journey back home, I encountered two blowouts. Despite the distance, I reached out to Inland Boat Center to share my unexpected adventure. Without hesitation, they offered to replace all six tires, demonstrating their dedication to their customers even after the sale is complete.The outstanding support and assistance I received from Inland Boat Center turned what could have been a stressful situation into a positive experience. Their willingness to go above and beyond for their customers is truly commendable and speaks volumes about their integrity and commitment to excellence.After this remarkable experience, I can confidently say that I would travel the distance once again to purchase another boat from Inland Boat Center. Their team's professionalism, knowledge, and genuine care for their customers make them stand out as a premier boat dealership. If you're in the market for your next boat, I wholeheartedly recommend Inland Boat Center as the place to shop. They've won my trust and loyalty, and I'm certain they'll do the same for anyone seeking a top-notch boating experience.R. Kizer, Weatherford Texas

They don’t have a ton of trailer parts, but they do have the hard to fine boat trailer suspension and axle nuts, washers, retainers and lots of boat parts and supplies. If you are in a jam and in the area try inland auto boat & RV sales.

Great place for beginners. Got everything you need. Comes with a Demo with a captain to physically teach you how to operate the boat. Great place.

James Helman, Tori and Taylor and the service team at Inland have been fantastic to work with. We are so glad that we chose Inland and bought the Pontoon from them and appreciative of the quality, Tech and features of our new Manitou Pontoon. We highly recommend this team to anybody considering a Pontoon. The boat is fantastic! Thanks all for a great experience.The Bicketts

This is our second boat purchase at Inland Boat Center. Love this place. Zero pressure sales, highly knowledgeable staff, and super friendly. Gary has been our sales contact for both purchases and has worked out great deals for us. Howie has taken us for our lake tests. I love the fact that they make sure you lake test the boat and are comfortable with it before making the sale. The lake test includes an end to end safety and operation display before the boat even goes in the water, in the water everyone on board will operate the boat and at the end the purchaser will load the boat on the trailer with helpful coaching. Most of the staff we have encountered aren't just in the boat industry, they are boaters and are able to answer questions based on personal experience. Can't say enough good things about IBC.

Terrible Service!!! We had to ask the salesman to help us both days we went! He was unwilling to work with us and seemed like he had no interest in getting a sale. He did not give us the time of day, maybe because we are a younger family. Do not go here!!!! Waste of time!!!!!!!

Terrible. We took our boat here for service/repairs and they managed to perform the work as if a 6 year old was doing the job. They left the battery door off, propped against the wood cabinetry, so it left an obvious mark from the trip back to us. They knew they were responsible but insisted they split the cost of repairs with us. Seriously?! They also did a terrible job fixing the door as well, using cheap silicone glue. AND they charged us a fortune to take it to back to us but didn't even inspect it first?! Hoping you take my review seriously and stay away from this business.

I own a charter company so I buy and sell boats all the time. I recently purchased a boat from inland boat center and the entire experience was amazing from start to finish.

Thanks again rich and the team at inland boat center for an amazing boat purchase experience

I made the 1 hour and 20 minute drive from San Diego to check out a fishing boat that was listed for $45,000. I talked, texted and emailed the salesmen about the condition of the boat before I made the drive there. He assured me the the boat has been totally checked out and was in great condition. Upon arrival, I boarded the boat and right away there were big problems. The deck hatches were broken, the toilet pump did not work, the deck lights did not work, the radar and fish finder were missing and not to be found. Then I said: where's the electronics? Sales said: I don't know. I then pointed out all the issues I found. He then said: let's go for a lake run at Lake Elsinore. So, now we're on the lake and the salesman said let's go! That boat took 15-17 seconds to get on plane! Man what a dog! I told the salesman that was really slow, and he said: oh no, that was like 7-8 seconds. No Way I said. So I said I'll drive and you time it. Guess what? This time 15 seconds. Just for comparison, the boat I have currently planes in 5 seconds! We try it one more time and the Yamaha 250 engine makes an loud bang, bang, bang and then a high pitch metal on metal squeal that does not go away. The engine is just idling, making loud noises and then the engine just seized up and stopped altogether. So now we're stranded out in the middle of the lake! All this happened in 10 minutes on the water. So now he calls the shop, and said: the boat is broken and I need a water tow. So I wait for over an hour for a shop truck and boat to be rescued and towed back to the ramp. This has got to be the WORST boat sales company in the world. What a absolute waste of my time. All I can say is BUYER BEWARE!
