    Great marina and dealership! I stopped in to look over a Sea Ray SLX400 for a client, and I was so impressed with B&E, I brought another client to Michigan City to browse new Sea Rays and Boston Whalers.

    These guys are the BEST! Been a customer for years, but never left a review. Best customer service of any place I've ever done business, not just boats. And pretty much anything you could need in the store,and priced fairly. Just grabbed a stainless steel hose clamp for $1.25. Hard to beat that these days. You won't regret going here. We always will.

    Great place. I was looking for a particular Yamaha boat and they had one in their showroom. I was able to reach the sales department promptly and they took my older boat on trade sight unseen and gave me a good price for it. The whole process of purchasing the boat was seamless. The owner greeted me the day of the sale. I highly recommend this marina. I wanted to give a follow up review of B & E marine: I have had my 2020 Yamaha jet boat for a few years now. This new boat has been great however, like all of these newfangled boats, there’s a lot of technology in them. Therefore, not surprising, I had a few things go wrong— some electrical problems with an amplifier; some of the decals started coming off; a mouse chewed up a brake line, etc. —but the service manager Bryce; his team and B & E Marine got right in there and took care of everything for me. They got my boat right in during peak season and had it done in no time. I would highly recommend buying a Yamaha boat from B &E Marine because they work with Yamaha, and take care of their end—and that’s what the customer needs. I’m very happy as a customer of B & E Marine….

    I have been a customer of B$E since 1997, and I cannot think of any place that I’ve ever done business with that had the kind of quality service and people of being a marine Rod Berry and the crew are literally family and treat their customers like that. I truly great company and I can’t say enough nice things.

    Outstanding experience with B&E Marine. Purchased from afar, which required close coordination and clear communication. Keith and Janet were awesome throughout the process, never making me feel like a bother or expressing impatience. Flew 1500 miles to sign and close, with a two-hour window due to flight delays, etc. Everything was ready and smooth. Even managed to sea trial the boat on Lake Michigan thanks to Chris, who, in spite of an injury, was gracious and patient. Co-owner Rod was on hand with a handshake and a smile as we departed for the airport - at closing time for B&E on a Sat. Advocates throughout the process, from coord with Whaler and the bank to Mercury for warranty offerings. Just really an overall positive experience. Feel like I got the best deal but know I didn't get the worst. Thanks, B&E for your professionalism and integrity. Would enthusiastically recommend to anyone looking for a boat or other Marine products.

    Overpriced on everything, staff seemed really underwhelmed to help a customer. They have a large selection of parts and products though.

    B&E Marine is Fantastic! Spring Launch is a treat knowing there will be no surprises and Winter Layup is better knowing it’s put away properly. The entire B&E Crew works together to provide customers with the best boating experience. We appreciate Bryce the Service Manager who is exceptionally knowledgeable and available, Warren is a Service Technician with a long list of credentials who never disappoints, Keith in Sales is experienced and pleasant who made the brokerage of our previous and purchase of the new (to us) seamless and enjoyable. We Enjoy being customers of B&E Marine!

    I purchased a new powerboat from B&E. The experience was terrific. From the purchase to the delivery and orientation, the service was excellent. I was impressed with our salesman Chris Cipares. He answered all of our questions during the whole process and gave a great orientation. He is very willing to answer questions after delivery and is extremely knowledgeable. Everyone at B&E made us feel like part of the family. I wish I could give six stars (out of five).

    B&E makes you feel like one of the family! Whether it’s sales or service or parts ...even the ship’s store and fuel dock... everyone there makes you feel right at home and they do whatever it takes to be sure you are taken care of. Their staff is knowledgeable and professional in every way. They did many service jobs for me and even provided insight and guidance when I took on projects myself. Truly top-notch in every way!

    Service department has always been able to meet or exceed my needs. Bryce (the service manager) is always willing to take our calls, and is a great resource to help keep us on the water. With the season in the mid-west being so short this is very important to us. Ownership is extremely friendly and remembers all their clients. I feel like BE Marine is the best team to keep you on the water and safe.

    It's a great place and a beautiful place. I'm a limo driver my client asked me to drive him out there to be B & E Marine. I saw some very beautiful boats. This is my client boat Stewart.

    Boat wouldn't start in my slip. Called and was told They were too busy shrink wrapping to help a stranded boat STILL IN THE WATER. And to think I bought my Searay from THEM!! WOW!!

    We purchased a used boat from B&E and the entire process from start to finish was fantastic. The entire staff was very professional and friendly. Chris Cipares on the sales side was great to work with and very responsive to our questions and concerns. He went above and beyond our expectations and we would definitely recommend working with him. Their service manger, Bryce, was also very supportive and quickly resolved minor issues identified during our survey. The closing of the sale was managed by Janet and she was very knowledgeable and walked us through the documents with confidence. B&E is a great marina and it was a pleasure purchasing our boat from them.

    We ran into a mechanical issue while out on Lake Michigan and had to get towed - called B&E Marine and they helped us find a tow. We made it to their dock ten minutes before they closed...got a new battery but we still were unable to run the boat. Rod (owner), Jordan, Josh and other members of the team were absolutely terrific. They stayed after hours to make sure we were taken care of and helped us to park the boat safely while a member of their team drove us to to get our truck and trailer in New Buffalo. Their focus on service, hospitality and genuine care for their customers was deeply appreciated. We would not hesitate to do business with this company again.

    Simply the best in the business in every respect! I have been buying boats at B&E since 1989, and they still have the same customer first work ethic they have had since the first day we walked in. I have confidently recommended B&E to hundreds of people through the years. Proud to be a B&E / SeaRay lifetime customer!

    I purchase a used boat from B&E marine & it was a wonderful experience. Keith Biggerstaff from sales was extremely helpful, trustworthy and went above & beyond to make my experience easy & pleasant. He gave me multiple boating lessons & advices since I’m a first time boater. I recommend B&E 100% & when you’re there, ask for Keith :)
