Boating

I Agree with most negative reviewers here, there is only one or two guys who really know anything. The east Indian women in cashier did not know anything there.In a nut shell the section is good but front cashier staff are usless and the business hours are a joke.

I have been in every West Marine store from Southern California to Vancouver BC. This one is the most well kept and neat in appearance. I missed the sale on the large advertised purchase and was one day late but they gave me the sale price anyway. Later I was making a new harness for my dinghy and davit and the manager, Russ, inspected my clamping and decided he could do it better and I felt a whole lot safer.

Always very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great prices. Great selection. I love giving them my business!

Best place, wonderful people always having fun.

San Juan Yachting is great! We are two beginning cruisers who chartered a boat and instruction from them this past week. They were welcoming and very personable in our first phone calls, email communication and meetings. Roger and Marlene even hosted a barbecue for guests the night before, which made us feel part of the family. During this dinner and safety meeting we could see how they care about the guests, staff and boat owners. The instruction was awesome. Captain Bob Hulett was our private instructor for the first three days. He was engaging, entertaining and able to change the book learning into hands on experience. He shared an enormous amount of information in a short amount of time. We felt as if he really cared that we understand the information, not just pass the test. He gave us the knowledge, skills and confidence to venture out on a seven day cruise of our own. The boat was very clean, well-supplied and maintained. There was some mechanical problem the first day but San Juan Yachting responded quickly and solved the problem by late that evening. Over all the people of San Juan Yachting were concerned and worked hard for our safety and success. We recommend them to any starting cruisers.

Great people and great company!

Wouldn't change a thing.

Went to return an item I bought 3 days ago because it wasn't needed after all. They have a 14 day return policy. Cashier says "you need to get a floor sales member to sign the receipt". So I find one eventually, he writes a small novel on receipt. Needs to test the item to make sure it was still working. I return to cashier. She has no idea how to process refund. She goes for help and disappears for several minutes. Returns with another staff member. They struggle - and fail. More time passes. Lineup grows. After about 5 more minutes I get my refund. Total time for a simple refund - about 15 minutes. They are the only marine store in Vancouver and treat their customers like they know. Staff are rude, unhelpful and hard to find. Place is a mess. Has been for years. Shop online if you can.

This place is awesome and beautiful.

Visitors not welcome. surly and bad attitude. Locals only, or expect to get fleeced with tickets and fines.

What an amazing eco-trip down the Harrison river. The Harrison is so full of life and biodiversity. Amazing when you think it is only 90 minutes from Vancouver. The tour boat was roomy, warm and dry. Bring your best camera for some amazing pics!. I can't wait to go back in Eagle salmon and eagle season.

Invited aboard by a Yacht Club member when we were in town. Well-kept mooring areas, with security lighting + monitored fencing. Got to tour a gorgeous Regal powerboat!

Un super site pour les enfants.😀

Great Marina

Best place on the lake

Camped on there for 3 nights 4 days, amazingly beautiful and relaxing. Also loved the little towns close by. The rangers were a treat, full of knowledge and personal. Would 100% go again.

Bought a new honda lawn mower. Great mower, and great service. Was in and out in no time and they even gassed it up.

Love cultus lake, lots of things for the kids to do, waterslides, adventure park, lots of hiking, beautiful drive, come early though, it get very busy
