Marine Emporium Boatyard

I experienced the OLD marine emporium. They were as everyone mentions, lacking in most categories.
I’m expecting to move a boat to the Delta and am looking forward to meeting the new ownership and staff because of all the positives I’ve heard since they took over.

This place is great for the DIY boat work crowd. I had to do a bottom job on my sailboat and some other miscellaneous work, but couldn't find a yard in the city until the end of March. I wouldn't prefer to drive out to the delta, but being a reverse commute it was only about an hour each way, and the rates were so much more affordable than anything around the bay. I trailered my Catalina 25 to Marine Emporium where they put her on the lift and jack stands so I could work. Power and was was close by, and the yard was locked at night with cameras all over so I felt secure. It was only $20 per day and I finished all my projects in just over two weeks. They set the boat back on the trailer and I was on my way. My only complaint is they don't offer a vacuum sander to rent as most yards do, so I ended up buying a full setup for $300. Still came out ahead and had my boat back on the water much sooner. I'd gladly use this yard again.

We experienced fast, friendly and courteous service. Got the job done quick and back in the water. The accomadations for the Islander 36 ocean's deep keel were favorable. There is a good supply of "kid in a candy store" used parts. The team was Johnny on the spot with both new and used parts from inventory and next day orders. Definitely recomend this Marina under the new management. Five stars.

New owner has transformed this place into a one stop professional repair center!Always willing to help you at whatever task you may have. They have the best prices in the area. They also sell used parts, motors, props at a very reasonable price.

Marine Emporium boat works haul out prices per foot was lower than the other yards I called in the bay area, and they were very accommodating on scheduling. I've found them quite polite and pleasant to deal with.
