Billy and staff at algona marine exceeded my expectations helping me with my recent g3 boat warranty replacement. Thanks for all your help and great service.

Doing business with Algona Marine is a smart choice for us, and well worth the travel. They always listen and understand our boating needs. Its a family run, dependable and fair and most of all your treated like "family." They don't just sell you a boat, they promote a life style with smart choices!

Donald & Dianna Roetman

Chad & Bill always take good care of me when I've dealt with them. They do an AWESOME JOB!

The Activities Director took our client on a dinner cruise three months ago. The resident really enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately, the boat did not allow everyone to participate. We looked for three months for a boat and dealer who could meet our needs for a quality product and outstanding service.

Algona Marine exceeded our requirements. The staff is competent, experienced, and courteous. Although we traveled to Algona, IA to purchase our new Bentley 220 Encore Cruise pontoon boat, the trip was definitely worth the drive.

We were concerned that distance would prevent us from receiving the service required of a new boat owner. However, we are totally satisfied with the efficiency, speed, and dedication of Algona staff to provide necessary service.

On behalf of the residents of Comfort Home of Delta, we want to express our appreciation for a wonderful addition to our activity program.

They were good people to deal with and didn't pressure you into buying a boat. When I picked the new boat up they got my boat in right away and started taking things off that I wanted off my boat & installed on the new boat. They took the time to explain things on the motor and how to service it.

WAYNE HEMRY

I purchased a Yacht Club trailer for my Pontoon. On a very short notice before the 4th of July weekend. Lance did everything possible to get me that trailer and my pontoon (motor tuned-up) before the end of June. He did this all within 7 days! I am so thankful for all you did, Lance and Billy to get this all ready to go! I love my new trailer, pulled it 12 hrs down to Table Rock Lake, MO and back & that trailer was so easy to pull! And so easy to load my pontoon on! The boat ran so nice! Had a great vacation because your team of expertise got me down there & back running smoothly! Thank you so much I will continue to do business with you & send any your way that I run in to!

Duke & Debbie Larson

I was absolutely amazed at how honest and nice all of their staff were. I would definitely tell anyone who needed a boat, to go to Algona Marine & Sport. I will never forget my experience and we absolutley love our boat!

Rich & Tory Miers

It was an enjoyable experience. Lance and Chad were very helpful in picking out & setting up the boat. Their service department were very helpful in going over everything with me.

RICK KELLAR

Thank you so much for your helpfullness in our aquiring another pontoon. Also thank you for keeping it for us till we could get it picked up this Spring. All of you we have talked to & worked with have been very professional & patient.

HERMAN & CANDY KAMARADT

– The sales process with Bill and Chad was very smooth.  The guys made sure that the price was fair and that I had the options that I needed on my Lund.  I traveled to Algona from Des Moines relying only on pictures and the phone assistance from Bill – the boat was exactly as they had represented.  Bill took time to do a thorough walk-through on the boat explaining the various functions and maintenance points.  This was only the start with Algona Marine.  I had a big fishing trip planned one week later and upon my trial run of all of the equipment and boat in Des Moines, I ran into an unforeseen mechanical issue.  I called Bill and Chad – within 15 minutes Billy hit the road from Algona to repair my boat (in Des Moines!).  Billy left Des Moines to return home at 9:00 at night after we had put it back on the water to make sure everything was up and running!  He said he wouldn’t feel right leaving if we did not test it!  Needless to say – it is not often you find a business that holds up to its promise to stand behind their product.  Algona Marine lived its promise.  Thanks for an excellent buying experience!

Dustin Petersen

Everyone was really helpful, and made you feel at home, and not uncomfortable. Thanks!

Terry P Feeley

Bill was very helpful on the phone and his used trailers were represented to what was described on the phone and internet. Drove from Souix Falls and was very happy with service. Would come back again. Thanks Bill!

CHRIS JEWELL

THANK YOU, BILL & CHAD FOR YOUR SERVICES AND HELP GETTING ON THE WATER FAST!

ROBERT HEAFORD

REALLY COOPERATIVE, GOOD TO WORK WITH, FAIR & TRUSTWORTHY.

STUART STRINGHAM

THE FOLKS AT ALGONA MARINE & SPORT ARE ALWAYS SO CHEERFUL. THEY WALKED US THROUGH EVERYTHING ABOUT OUR NEW PONTOON. REBECCA & JILL WERE VERY HELPFUL AT DOING THE PAPERWORK. JILL HELPED US FIND A BANK TO FINANCE IT. I WOULD RECOMMEND ANYONE THAT WANTS A BOAT, NEW OR USED, TO GO TO ALGONA MARINE & SPORT! CAN'T WAIT TO GET OUT ON THE WATER!! THANKS GUYS!!

JEROME & TINA ZEIMET

Drove by Algona Marine one day and saw the boat with the motor of our dreams! Settled on a price, and asked for a few tweaks-which Chad did without batting an eye. What a boat!! And what a deal!!

Roger & Judy Lentz

We appreciate the good service. Everyone that works there is friendly and we enjoyed doing buisness with you.

Robert Hark

We were so pleased with the people at Algona Marine. We priced the same boat, motor and trailer in our area and Chad Hall gave us the best deal. This is our 2nd Lund we purchased from Chad and would never go any place else. Keep up the good work all of you. We appreciate it very much!

Lynn Holland

I was very plessed with the representation of the G3 Pontoon we purchaed from Algona Marine. They discussed all the options available and the quality of the product very well. I have known them to stand behind their products. We look forward to years of boating.

Donna Kitzinger

Very helpful; answered all my questions. Had boat ready when I showed up to pick it up. Very easy to talk to in person and over the phone.

Patrick S. McColloch

Friendly and knowlegeable salesmen and staff with fast delivery.

Jim Anderson

We've used the boat a lot in July. Our older kids come back to see us (actually to use the boat) and bring their friends. And our younger kids invite friends. Great tool to bribe our kids to hang out with us.

David & Portlind Bjustrom

I looked at three different dealers before coming to Algona. All three were very pushy and were unfriendly. Bill & Chad were very nice people to talk to and deal with. Also, Bily in the back was very helpful on my prop problem. Even though I could have bought the Alumacraft cheaper, I am very glad I went with a Lund and with Algona Marine. It was well worth the 3½ hour drive and the extra 2 thousand dollars. I would recommend Algona Marine to anyone. You guys, and office gals, are A++.

Chris Meyer

Several years ago my son and I started talking about getting a new boat. I was already the owner of a 16 ft. Lund w/tiller but decided I wanted to upsize. Being new to the area we set out to a local dealer. When considering making a purchase that large and getting what I wanted and needed was a major factor in my mind. Well, apparently the dealership we went to did not. Not only did they apparently not care they wouldn't even talk to us. So my son said, "To heck with them if they don't care about us then we will take our business and money to someone who does. That in itself presented a problem because as I said I was new to the area. But I did know someone I could ask; he owned a boat. So I did just that and he recommended ALGONA MARINE. So that is where I went and would become the proud owner of a 19 ft. Lund, that met my specifications. I was treated like they cared about my satisfaction. So with many good times to remember with that 19 ft. Lund, yes, that upsizing feeling came upon me again. The buddy who first recommended ALGONA MARINE was also thinking of upsizing. So with no hesitation we set out for ALGONA MARINE. And yes, once again became owners of, this time 21 ft. Lund that met our specifications. I don't know that I will be doing anymore upsizing but if I ever decide to, there is no doubt that I know exactly who I will go to and that is ALGONA MARINE.

Douglas Witzenburg

Just a small token of our appreciation for all the work you did. Take the wife or family out to eat or whatever. See ya on the water sometime. Thank you very much.

Mark Dorn

First of all I would like to say "2 oz. come on, you should of won!" Just kidding! The fun and enjoyment is the most important thing, speaking of ! My boat! WOW!!! I love it, even if it does not help me catch more fish, I look good!

I just wanted to Thank You and your staff on the wonderful first class treatment I have received. (even though you lacked 2 oz.) The service team you have down there is second to none. I would recommend Algona Marine to anyone who ask, the sense of humor, the warm friendly reception I have always gotten when I walk in the door is just hard to find anymore.

Please pass this along to all who work down there, "Don't ever Change" you have a very special group that serves its customers well. Thank You!

P.S. Thanks again for the autographed hat! My son has claimed it as his prize possession .

Mark Zojonc

Thank you for you for your professionalism and courteous attitude in the purchase of my boat on Saturday.

Everyone handled themselves in a manner that made me feel very good about purchasing my boat.

You have a great staff and I want to especially thank Billy for telling me everything there is to know about my boat.

You have built a very good business and I appreciate how I was handled when I walked in your door!

Thank you!

Brad Kuhnert

Now that the 2008 fishing season has drawn to a close and I was making plans for 2009, my wife asked me a question. "How did your boat work," thinking back for a moment I said "Just like the previous one." Her next question was "Haven't you purchased all of them from Algona Marine? Aren't there other dealers around?" Which got me to thinking why have I purchased 4 boats from a dealership that is 140 miles from my home in Altoona, IA?

I began explaining why and the number one reason is I AM A FISHERMAN, a boat is just one part of the equation. Recalling the details of my purchases leads me to answer the what, where, when and why questions asked by you. This process insured that my boat would make me a happy owner and future customer of your dealership.

I know change is always in the wind, but never forget what makes you what you are. Happy customers return and do more business. Unhappy customers don't.

Carl Carlson

Just a note of appreciation for the work Billy did on my boats this spring.

After putting both boats in the water, they did not run smooth and Billy went to the lake and tuned them both up. My powerboat is working now better than it has the entire fifteen years I have owned it.

In my experience this the kind of customer service that I have hoped for and seldom found in any business let alone boating. Billy offered no excuses for the problems I was having but simply fixed them. I hope you can pass on to him my satisfaction and praise him for jobs well done.

I have used three different shops in the Okoboji area over a seventeen-year period and I have not been satified with any of them. I am now very satisfied client of your business and share my expereince with my boating friends and family.

THANKS for your excellent work and for Billy's skill and willingness to see a job through!

Ron Kitterman

Everyone that I talked to at Marine and Sport was very courteous and informative. Boat and trailer and motor was all prepped and ready to go; they showed me about depth finder shift and controls and how to break motor in.  If I ever get another boat, it will be from Algona Marine and Sports.

Ted Nelson

Tim and I liked working with the staff - very helpfull and pleasant. We really like the boat. We tell others where we got the boat and recommened they visit your place of business.

Dennis Schoenwetter and Tim Maas

They made you feel welcome. They were kind, courteous, and very helpful. The job was done right the first time. I will get my next boat at Algona Marine.

Gordon Oleson

I finally got the boat in the water. Runs great and did I get a lot of good comments on it. My friends think that Black Rebel looks great. My brother has an Alumacraft and he said he wants a new Lund. His wife tells him to just go fishing with me.

First fishing trip, I caught a nice walleye on Storm Lake. Glad I caught the first one. Many more to come. Thanks again.

Todd Rohwer

Staff is friendly and helpful.

Tim Funk

A big Thank You to the whole staff at Algona Marine and Sport for your help in choosing my new Explorer Sport 17'. During the whole process, they were very helpful to make sure I got the boat I wanted plus all the electronics to make it very useful. After the sale, their explanation of all aspects of operations was great. Thank you again for all of your time to make sure my boat buying experience was enjoyable. Thank you!

Keith & Kathy Durschmidt

We purchased a boat from Chad. We appreciated his knowledge about all the products they sell. Chad, Lance & Connie were all very friendly and helpful. The service was excellent and Billy Bradford knew his job well. We highly recommend your place of business.

Robert & Bonita Harle

Just wanted to say "Thanks!" for your excellent customer service! Our boat is running great, and we've really been enjoying it this summer! Thanks for standing behind it after the sale! We'll definitely be in when we're ready to upgrade! We appreciated all your help!

Craig & Sheri Marihart

Just a thank you to "all of you at Algona for your extra effort". We got the boat home safe, put it in Lake Minnetonka and even caught a few bass. It was a pleasure working with you and will recommend Algona Marine to anyone.

Mike & Sue Morgan

Just wanted you to know that we really are enjoying our new Lund. I also wanted you to know that because of the way you handled us on our first meeting, you sold the boat. You gave us time and listened to us even though you all were very busy. Shamrock Boat Sales quoted us a price less than you, but we wanted to deal with you, and are happy we did!

Dave and Cork Tracey

Thanks for everything you did for me. The boat and all the equipment made this vacation one of the best ever. The boat worked like a charm, handled well in rough water and idled right down for back trolling. I have never been as impressed as I was with you and all your people at Algona Marine. From the first time I walked in the door, to when I pulled away with my new boat, I was treated with respect and attention. Thank you. If I run into anybody considering buying a boat or motor, there's only one place I'll tell them to buy--Algona Marine. Again, thanks for everything.

Scott Willms

My wife and I were at Algona Marine this past Saturday (3/11), and completed a deal to purchase the red Explorer 1700 sitting on your showroom floor. (We're excited, to say the least.) As we completed the agreement, we purchased a Lowrance depth finder/GPS to be installed on the dash. It's the 334 iGPS. In the excitement of the moment, I failed to ask if the temperature and speed sensors would be installed, as well. I'd like to make sure those two items are included at installation. We're scheduled to pick up the boat on April 1.

When you speak to him, I'd like to thank Bill again for the respectful way in which he dealt with us, and we're looking forward to a long and mutually beneficial association with Algona Marine & Sport. Thanks in advance for your help with the Sonar/GPS.

Tim Allyn

I spent three days in Bill Hall's 2025 Lund last week. Every day the wind was from 25-45 mph, so you know how rough that was. I couldn't believe how smoothly his boat handled those big waves. The nose cut through with very little pounding. I run a 2050 Skeeter, just like the Dutchman's, and thought our boats were superior in big waves. I give the edge to Bill's boat.
