It’s always been a pleasure dealing with Crates. Honest sales people and they work hard to take care of you for service after as well.

Brad is the man to take care of you. Andrew is the specialist. The whole team is remarkable. The timeframe to do the engine rebuild is acceptable.

Eric P

Professional team with excellent communication. This builds trust. Recommended.

Was a first time boat owner and was fortunate to have Crate's recommended to me. Well known industry leader in boats; absolutely ACE in customer service, reliability, products, expertise. Even though I was intimidated by the lack of knowledge I had, Peter Wilson's expertise, patience and genuine concern in answering and providing important facts made me feel more than confident with my first boat. Was a privilege to deal with the owner of Crate's, Peter, Brad in service. The entire team made this purchase free of worries. Thank you for making this a great purchase for my family!!

Crate's Lake Country Boats came highly recommended to us by our clients, and we could not be more pleased and impressed with their boats and more importantly, their customer service. We have been clients of Dan Crate and team for over a decade now and are currently enjoying our 3rd boat from this incredible dealer. They know how to treat their clients with the utmost care. Our loyalty runs deep and we won't recommend anyone else!

Very trustworthy dealer. Have known Jason Crate for 30 years. Always fair and honest.

Pablo C.

Awesome staff, very friendly and knowledgeable. They have been servicing our boat for over ten years.

This is our 4th boat, but this is our first yacht and our first purchase from Crate's in Orillia. We were a bit nervous moving into such a big boat, but Brian Brinks spent a LOT of time with us going through the unfamiliar systems on the boat followed by (much needed) docking and handling lessons. He was always available to answer our questions. We have been LOVING our new Cruisers Yacht!

Service provided by Mark and the service team has been excellent. Had my boat in several times over the past few years for service and maintenance work. Work is always completed to satisfaction, boat returned clean, invoices are detailed and complete. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

Incredible service from everyone...especially Peter our broker. We've been in the boat buying game for many years and he now tops the list by far. Class act all the way.

I've been in to Crate's Orillia a couple times to get parts. Andrew is very helpful and can get parts delivered for pick up really quickly. I highly recommend them.

Joel B.

I cannot express how pleased we are with the service at Crates. Their attention to detail, accountability for their work and up front honest feedback is so appreciated and why we drive over an hour to bring it here.

Kim G.

Had an excellent experience with Rich Grooms buying a new boat. He went above and beyond and still to this day is there to help if you need anything. Mark and Brad lead a great service team and can't say enough great things about this amazing family run business.

Best service and staff on Simcoe ! I have purchased three new boats from them. Would not deal anywhere else.

Brad W

Awesome customer service! Vast selection and extremely informative sales-staff for my potential marine purchase. I had the pleasure of speaking with Bill who was patient and explained to me the in's and out's of logistics for the class of boats I was inquiring about. I will definitely be doing business with Bill at Crates and would absolutely refer any of my friends and family as well.

We purchased a new Regal from Crates this past summer. We ordered the boat through Jason and we could not have been happier with the whole experience. Nothing was missed and we got exactly what we wanted and ordered. Jason was extremely knowledgeable about the different models and features available. Everyone we dealt with along the way was knowledgeable and friendly. We have since been back for service and the service team is also fantastic. They really go above and beyond here. We absolutely love our boat and would recommend Crates to anyone considering buying a boat. Thank you to the whole team at Crates!

I don't often write reviews, but in this case I think it's well deserved. After purchasing my boat, I discovered an issue that raised some concerns. Rather than ignoring the situation or making excuses, the team at Crate's listened, took my concerns seriously, communicated openly throughout the process, and resolved the issue quickly and professionally. They went above and beyond to ensure the repairs were completed properly and kept me informed every step of the way. It's easy to judge a business when everything goes smoothly, but a company's true character is shown by how they respond when things don't go as planned. In my experience, Crate's went the extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied and confident in both my purchase and the service they provide. A sincere thank you to Jason Crate, Brian Brinks, and the entire service and parts teams for your professionalism, transparency, and commitment to making things right. That level of customer care is truly appreciated, and it's why I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Crate's to anyone looking to purchase or service a boat.

Andrew K.

Kept me afloat with boat wisdom.
