There are several reviews which refer primarily to the interpersonal communication between the hirers and customers. We found the owners to be helpful if somewhat forthright, the crux being to ask the right questions as sharing of information isn’t necessarily forthcoming...sadly. So, be clear in the information you require. As for the costs and boats, the boats are comparitavily cheaper, however there are hidden costs! The fuel on weekly charter is chargeable, the boats are only available between 09.30 and 17.00hrs, unless you have a private mooring. They only allow you to take the boat if the weather is clement, and seem to look for justifications to restrict usage. Boat Maintenance is on the poor side, the remote controls on steering and throttle for our boat was tired and needed servicing. We suspect as the business is up for sale that the current owners are reluctant to invest in the fleet maintenance. To conclude, we had a fantastic week in Salcombe, despite the issues we enjoyed our boating though have concluded it’s best we buy our own boat. The pontoon crew however are brilliant!

Bought a dressed crab from the shop recently, absolutely excellent. Would recommend to anyone.

Rude people and broken promises. Arranged a boat trip for the following day with them and when we arrived the shop was closed.

The small motor boat we hired was ok but the people running this little company are arrogant individuals. Really horrible people to hire from and i would recommend you use one of the other boat hire companies in Salcombe instead.

This is run by a rude and unhelpful couple. Expensive fish and unwilling people.

They wouldn't hire us a boat! The owner said there weren't enough people around to bother (even though we asked to hire one!). Apparently there was also some water in the boats which was too much hassle to sort.

Very rude on phone when trying to book a boat and didn’t want my business - just tried to rush me off as far too busy.

Awful boat with attitude to match. Avoid at all costs!!
