Ian Klein's Review

“I was originally referred to Michael by some of the most reputable guys in the South Florida marine and fishing community. After getting the run around almost a year and a half ago by a different company that had my cowlings, I decided to get them to Michael and hoped he could bring them back to life. He was extremely professional and honest with his lead time and pricing, and he kept me updated with photos and videos along the way. I would highly recommend Marine O Customs for anything like what I got done. My cowlings look brand new and I’m back in the game looking better than ever. We need more guys like this in the industry. Thanks again Michael 🙏”

Mark Laborde's Review

“I had a hole in the top of my Yamaha 60 cowling that had a crappy patch job. I found this guy on Facebook and his work looked good. My cowling now looks new. His glass work is perfect and the new paint and clear finish is better than factory. Highly recommend Mike and his work. His prices are very reasonable for the quality of work he does and he was cool enough to meet me half way between my house and where he’s located. Marine-o-Customs doesn’t disappoint.”

Liza Huyser Handerhan's Review

“Came by twice. First time to replace the bilge pump and then yesterday for a detail. Both experiences were awesome. Very knowledgeable and courteous. Michael took our 13 year old (never detailed, washed or waxed) boat and made it shine like new! All this time I thought she needed to be repainted!!! Very pleased with the service and will recommend to anyone looking for boat work to be done. Thank you!”

Mark Calvert's Review

“I've used Mike for electronics install and detailing on my boat. He does great work. He made some heavily oxidized gel coat look brand new this last time around. I've referenced him to friends who've complemented him as well. Everything is very professional, from his equipment to invoicing. My go to guy for my boat.”

David Templer's Review

“Found Mike on Craigslist. He did a fantastic job of refinishing my HPDI cowlings! Turned them around is just 2 days. Both were faded and peeling. One had a chunk taken out of it. When I picked them up there was no hint of prior damage. Also, very responsive to texts and emails, with progress pictures during the job. A+. Trustworthy, reliable, professional.”

Don Twente's Review

“Mike’s work is phenomenal! My daughter purchased a marine stereo as a Christmas present for my wife & I. I called/searched everywhere (even the place I bought my boat) to try and have the stereo & speakers installed--but to no avail. Mike was recommended by my neighbor. So I made the call, and I'm so glad I called Marine O Customs--a true find! Mike is a true professional and has impeccable work ethic. He knocked the installation out of the ballpark! The stereo looks amazing. His installation work is flawless. Based on the exceptional stereo installation, I recently had Mike install a new Simrad fishfinder/chartploter. Again, Mike went above and beyond. The installation was phenomena, and when I say he goes “above and beyond”, Mike stayed until 10:00 PM showing me how to use the Simrad. But here is where the real benefit comes in with using Marine O Customs, Mike will come to you! That’s right, no driving your boat to a marine center and having to wait days or months (and numerous excuses) to get your boat back. Mike will come to your house and complete the work—mind blowing! BTW, Mike’s prices are very reasonable as well. Bottom line, I have Mike on speed dial.”

Cathy Townsend's Review

“Marine O Customs helped us order all the electronics for our custom panga. The JL audio sound with a fusion head unit was just what we wanted. Professional and excellent service from Michael Marino at Marine O Customs! I would highly recommend!”

Ross Keith's Review

“Mike brought life back to my 1999 115 yamaha cowling.. It was in pretty sad shape.. It was done in less than a week! It was way beyond what I expected and he even fixed a couple cracks he found. I will recommend him to my friends that may need some work done.. Great job Mike!”

Bryan Hurst's Review

“If you’re looking for an amazing boat detailer or to paint the engines on your boat, look no further. Michael does incredible work at a fare price. He’s there when he says he will be and the outcome of his work is great. Michael takes pride in every job I’ve thrown at him and has definitely earned his spot as one of our elite detailers and painters.”

Ryan Sachs Review

“Marine O Customs was referred by a friend for mobile marine detailing. We spoke over the phone and discussed the project details. A price was agreed upon and the date was scheduled. He sent me a reminder the day before he arrived which was also nice. My boat had been sitting in our lake (uncovered) for about two weeks so it wasn't in the best of shape. Michael arrived on time, executed the role, and surpassed expectations. I will definitely use him again, and will also refer him out. Good job sir!”
