This was my first experience with Gary and Classic Craft and I will be bringing my
jet skis and boat back if they need work again, hopefully they won't. Gary quoted me a price and it came in just under what
he said. That is an honest person. He easily could have charged what he quoted. Thank you Gary and company for the great job
and fantastic service. You are #1 MARK
What more can you ask for? I use and reccomend Classic Craft for fiberglass
and gelcoat repair. Stephen

Gary,
Just wanted to drop you a quick note about the fiberglass repair that was done on my 1997 Sport Nautique. If you
remember, I had damage to the fiberglass above the bronze strut assembly (below the boat, around the direct drive shaft area)
last year. I previously sent in a review on the nice fiberglass and color matching you guys did. Recently, my
steering cable went bad so I decided to do the repair myself to save some money. I called your shop, and you gave some
good info on how to proceed with the repairs. When I removed the floor panels and rear seats to access the steering
cable, I was pleasantly surprised to find the same professional fiberglass/strut repair done last year looked just as professional
from back side of the fiberglass. The backside of the fiberglass was repaired to factory specifications with no excess
fiberglass shards or extensive overspray. Its one thing to repair something that meets the acceptance of the average
reviewer, but it is another to do a thorough and complete job! Thanks Gary , I hope you guys are around for many more
years. I highly recommend your shop to anyone looking for repair. Sam.

"Gary, thanks for taking care of me and our boat repair needs.
You got us in very quickly and did a quick turnaround exactly as promised. I had used you in the past and was very satisfied.
It’s been 10 years and I am back and still very satisfied. Keep up the great work of being an exceptional customer service
company while providing quality workmanship.
Thanks, Brian"

I was able to send Gary at
Classic Craft pictures of the damage to our 2004 X30 Mastercraft and within an hour he was on the phone going over the needed
repairs and gave me a quote over the phone. We set an appointment right then and I drop the boat off about two weeks
later. I've heard many stories of other owners dropping their boats off at the dealer and waiting weeks even months to get
their boat back. I dropped the boat off at Classic Craft on Tuesday morning and received a call to pick it up
two days later. The work was done and my boat was still as clean. They took very good care of the boat while
they had it and my bill at the end was still the same as the quote. I would highly recommend Classic Craft to anyone that
needs gel coat work done. Chris Kohler Roseville, CA
I recently took my boat to Gary for repairs. I was very impressed with his knowledge of every question I asked him. Progressive
insurance recominded him and told me that Gary had over 30 years experience. Progressive insurance and Classic Craft treated
me very well, and sped up my claim process to get my boat back on the water asap! Gary also gave me tips on my paint and interior.
I would definately go back to Classic Craft in the future, and would have faith in Gary handling any job I sent his way! Thank
you Gary

Gary (the owner) quoted me a price over the phone for keel repair and was very informative about the process and whether
or not I really needed the repair work done. He accomodated my schedule for boat drop off and pickup and completed the work
ahead of schedule. The final cost was 20% cheaper than the quote and the quality and craftsmanship of the work was top notch.
He stands by his work and was very pleasant and honest. I highly recommend Classic Craft, I know Gary will take care of you.
See you at Tahoe Gary!

I took in my 1984 Boston Whaler that had keel damage and transom holes on it. I
read the reviews online for this shop and am not disappointed at the service that I received from this shop. The owner of
the shop "Gary" was very helpful and got my boat back to me in a very timely manner. He also was very pleasant and knowledgeable.
It seemed to me that he really cared about his customers and the cost of the repairs. He is not there just to make a buck.
I would recommend his shop to any one that needs repairs done on there boat

Excellent Body Work
I recently took my boat t Classic Craft on Folsom Blvd. Sacramento location for repairs on my boat.
The owners spent a great deal of time with me to find out exactly what repairs were needed from my perspective. They then
did a comprehensive inspection to confirm all repairs. Prior to beginning the repairs, the owner called me and reviewed the
findings so that we both came to a mutual agreement on the needed repairs and estimated costs. True to their word, the repairs
were done timely, accurately and extremely professionally. My hats off to a company that honors their committments and performs
superior repairs. Kudos to you all. I would recommend to your services to all my boatng friends

Gary has restored and repaired several classic speed boats for my Dad and me over the past 25 years.
He is a true "old school" craftsman.....the type with the rare skills that are hard to find these days. Gary's workmanship
is beyond reproach, his prices are very reasonable and he will never try to talk you into expensive repairs if he thinks there's
a less expensive alternative. Give Classic Craft a try.....you will be glad you did!

Gary did an excellent job on our 05 Centurion Concourse!
After our hull was damaged from the
dock, I took our boat to Gary at Classic Craft. His crew was quick and thorough, with the repairs. I got it back
the same week and now it looks brand new!
I would definitely recommend Classic Craft's work to anybody and
be a repeat customer (but hope I don't have a reason to be).

TOP NOTCH WORK!!!
Had a 2007 Centurion that needed some fiberglass work done. Had a couple of quotes from
the other guys, but went with Classic Craft. Best choice I made! Not only was the work good, classic craft was 25% less, and
2 weeks quicker than the other guys! Will be using Classic Craft for all my work. Thanks Gary

Work boat repairs
Classic craft repaired a California Department of Fish and Game work boat. The boat is
a 20 foot Grady White with some front end damage along the rub rail and some gel coat chips along the keel. After checking
out several vendors and getting bids we found gary to be the most reasonable deal. After talking to Gary I found him to be
very knowldgeable and he gave me confidence that he could do the job right. We picked the boat up last week and it looks wonderful.
The damage to the front is blended in so well you can only see the repair if you really look hard. Matching this finish was
impossible and we knew that goin in. The boat is 20 years old and has spent the bulk of it's life parked outside. So the finish
is not high gloss and looks nothing like a showroom boat. It is a working vessel. Gary and his crew fixed our vessel at a
reasonable price and most importantly in the time he said he would. The boat is already back on the water and it looks great.
Thanks Gary and Classic Craft.

Great Work!
I took a damaged wakeboard boat to Gary at Classic Craft a couple of weeks ago. He repaired
the gelcoat and rub-rail to like-new condition, I can't even tell where the damage was. This was also a double-color repair,
both yellow and white needed work. His friendly service and accurate estimate were highlights of the service, I would highly
recommend!

Best Bang for any buck
After searching the area and getting numerous quotes, Gary at Classic Craft gave me (by
far) the best quote. It was less than half of what the other guys charged. So, was quality sacrificed? Absolutely not. We
couldn't tell where the fiberglass damage had been on our 2006 Nautique. We have since taken numerous boats and PWCs there.
They are really easy to work with, even on short notice sometimes. We would never take a boat anywhere else and always recommend
Classic Craft to our friends.
Classic Craft Is a well oiled clock Provided by YellowPages.com
I Jaime Campos of Warlocks Auto Accessories Inc. have been doing business with Gary for
the past 10 years.
Gary is the most reasonable shop in town, and has always taken care of my self and any referral
customers I have sent to him. Gary Is always very accurate with his time and quotations as a business owner I do not like
surprises classic craft has always Taken care of me and I would recommend the team at classic craft to any one looking for
ay type of fiberglass restoration or repair.
Fiberglass RepairProvided by YellowPages.com
We recently damaged our boat on Folsom lake on a large submerged granite bolder. Other
shops, due to many boats being damaged due to the low water levels in Folsom were backloged and stated we would have to wait
6 to eight weeks. Clssic Craft was able to get the boat in and repaired with 3 weeks and handled all of the insurance issues.
Great service and I would recommend them hands down.

We know when it came time to have some restoration work done on our 1950 Chris Craft,
that we would take it to Classic Craft. We are very happy with the results and we will definitely take it back for
future work.

Classic Craft recently replaced the worn out carpet in my 1998 Keaton 18J. Gary was able to
perfectly match the color and the install took less than one day...The boat now looks as good as new. The price was very fair
and the work is exceptional. I would highly recommend Classic Craft for your boat repairs.
Saved the original planks.Provided by YellowPages.com
I am more than completely satisfied with Gary's shop work on refinishing my totally original Philbrick.
As you know the more original wood on a boat the more original it is and the higher the value it maintains. I took my boat
to Gary for a refinishing and was prepared for at least a half dozen planks would be replaced due to splitting. Gary investitgated
the reason for the splitting and concluded it was due to insufficant hull ribbing in the bow. He installed 3 new ribs and
was then able to fill and pull in the the cracked planks to the original form and then refinished the boat. the boat looks
better than when i first picked it up as new! Gary has retained ALL the original wood and increased the boats value. I am
very,very pleased with the scope of the repairs and refinish and believe it was done at a very fair price. I highly recomend
Classic Craft for your wood boat repairs and refinishes.
Sacramento's Fiberglass Boat Repair CenterProvided by Citysearch
Classic Craft is the preferred Boat Dealer, Factory Warranty repair, and Insurance repair
center in Sacramento and why this is so, is quite obvious after doing buisness with the them. Four craftsmen with
a combined experience level of an incredible 199 years boat building and repairing means these guys know boats and how to
repair them. Quality work, on time delivery, and reasonable prices are the cornerstone of Sacramento's oldest repair
and boat building establishment.
Our First Choice!Provided by YellowPages.com
As a local marine repair service here in Sacramento we at Delta Breeze Marine only have a
few choices when it comes to high quality Marine Fiberglass Repairs. Our "Go To Guys" are the crew at Classic Craft.
Gary (the owner) is very well versed when it comes to all areas of boat construction and repair. Quality repairs are not the
only reason for our loyalty. Gary has never failed us when it comes to honesty, warranty and the ability to complete a job
in a timely manor. It all comes down to "Customer Service" a trait that seams to harder to find these days.

CLASSIC CRAFT REVIEW
I HAVE BEEN DOING BUSINESS WITH CLASSIC CRAFT FOR OVER 20 YEARS. GARY HAS RESTORED 5 BOATS FOR ME,
TWO OF WHICH WERE BASKET CASES. THE TWO BASKET CASES, ONCE RESTORED, WERE TAKEN TO THE TAHOE BOAT SHOW AND WON MULTIPLE AWARDS.
THIS HAS TO SPEAK LOUDLY ABOUT GARY'S ABILITIES AS A CRAFTS PERSON. HIS MANY YEARS OF EXPIERENCE GIVES HIM A BROAD RANGE OF
ABILITIES TO SOLVE THE MOST COMPLEX PROBLEMS FACED IN ANY RESTORATION. I CAN RECOMMEND THIS SHOP, WITHOUT RESERVATION, FOR
BOTH QUALITY OF WORK AND FAIRNESS OF PRICE.
