Default Miles Marine consignments

Anyone out there have any experience dealing with Miles Marine? Thinking of selling my boat and see they are using lot across from Cinema in Gilford to sell used boats on consignment... Thanks for any feedback!

I used them to bring up my boat from the dealer I bought it from in Delaware. Very professional and careful. Kept the boat for me on their lot for a week until my Dad was able to come up and then delivered it to my house. Not a scratch on it. Would definitely recommend.

They are a first class family business.

I used them several years ago to bring a large boat from upstate New York and I have had them do other work since then. Always a good experience at a fair price.

Most of the marine businesses and boat dealers around the lake use them to move their large boats. That should tell you how good their reputation is.

Miles brought our boat back and forth from Irwin to Wolfeboro for several years before we decided to just store it there. Because of size we couldn't get it taken out on this side of the lake. They did a great job twice every year.

Great family and great people. A few years ago my boat rolled down an embankment. We were unable to pull it back up with my brother in laws pickup. I called Miles and Mike came and was able to pull it back up. When I asked him what I owed he said "don't worry about it" and left. As I said great people fair and honest!

Default Consignments

I know that they have been selling boats out of the lot on route 11. Great visibility.

I have a friend that is dealing with them currently on a purchase of a consigned boat and he told me today that they have been great to deal with.

I haven't consigned anything with Miles, but we have used them to service our boat for the past few seasons, as well as to maintain our driveway in the winter months and most recently to re-power our 83 Formula.

Honest, hardworking folks, very fair pricing and on top of all that, they are local! All big points in my book.
