Ron's Testimonials

" Sam and Ron are great to work with. "

Mark | Princess S62

" They say that the 2 happiest days of a boat owner’s time are when you buy it and when you sell it. That was certainly true with the help of Kevin and Ron at JBYS. What they don’t say is how the right company can help to make sure all the days in between are memorable and fun. JBYS is that right company that helps along the way and celebrates the memories with you. Thanks for 20 great years of boating! "

Steve | Absolute 48 Navetta

" Happy to give you guys a “five star” rating because I have been very impressed with all my interactions with the Jefferson Beach team. I’m a very satisfied client and enjoy working with Ron, Charles, Bob, and the entire team. "

Keith | Cruisers Yachts 50 Cantius

"Jefferson Beach was awesome to work with. They gave me a very fair trade on my old boat and a very fair price on my new boat. Their follow up, customer service, and overall “client first’ approach makes them a first class operation. Any service needs I’ve had due to warranty issues or other needs were handled quickly and with excellent communication by Charles and the service department. I cannot be happier with my choice to do business with Jefferson Beach And how I will recommend them to others seeking to buy or sell."
