What Our Clients Say
Posted on Dee CoopeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Forked River Diesel-Generator provided the necessary work to my fuel tanks and propellers. They worked efficiently and quickly to get me back on my journey. Deb was there to answer my many questions, or find the answer, which I really appreciated. Their friendly attitude made the whole experience pleasant. I've added them to my favorites and would stop in again if I'm ever in the area!Posted on John MoranTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The expertise, responsiveness and quality of work has exceeded my expectations over the past 15 years that I have used Forked River Diesel and Generator. On more than one occasion, they responded immediately and serviced my boat at its location at my dock. The entire crew is dedicated to quality work and an amazing customer experience. I wouldn’t let any other company service my boat.Posted on brian shortinoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The staff were professional and courteous throughout.Posted on Scrappy pTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. John, Debbie, Jake, and the rest of the gang took care of us when our boat was acting up. Our research vessel was having fuel issues in the middle of an important 4-day trip, and they took care of us immediately. It reminded me of service you might find 30 years ago; good folks, a personal small-town feel, and all the diesel techs there were sharp. John reminds me of that character Cooter from Dukes of Hazard. Smart, personable, and reliable. Can’t wait to bring them my entire fleet!Posted on praga vodkaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. in 2014 my TOPAZ 32 ' OFFSHORE FEVER ' was ready to go to bahamas . valve dropped . engine replacement needed. i had to go to china for business.

John is very knowledgeable and an expert at his profession!!!Posted on Better AttitudeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. John and Deb have been taking care of my boat for 4 years. They have done quality work season after season and have been fairly priced. They have come through with parts when no one else could and they have made offsite visits when we had a breakdown mid-season. They are nice people to work with and I trust their work.
