I have done the Valet thing at Channel Marine for a few years. I can't say enough good things about them. They have bent over backwards to help me in the past. My first time there, I pulled up with my truck and new boat on the trailer. I bought elsewhere because I got a deal I couldn't refuse. I had already coordinated to have the valet service for the year, but showed up out of nowhere to drop the boat off. When I got there, they were in the process of closing up for the night. There was only a salesman left, everyone else, including the fork lift operator, was gone for the night. My initial thought was that I would have to leave the boat and trailer there for them to take care of in the morning. Instead, the salesman (never met me, and I just pulled in with a brand new boat bought elsewhere) offered to ride with me to the ramp in Meredith and drive my truck back to Channel so I would have a chance to take the new toy for a ride. I took his offer and he never asked for anything in return.

Their location is something I like because 95% of the time it is very smooth there and it is very easy to dock there. The attendants pumping gas are easy on the eyes as well.

I definitely recommend Channel Marine. I wouldn't think twice about doing business with them.
