    Karee Marine - Excellent Service

    Hi All,

    Just thought I'd write a few words to say thanks to Trevor at Karee Marine for great service Put in my bow mount Minn Kota in to have a steering problem fixed(no steering) last week, expecting the worst, as the warranty had expired, I got a call less than a week later to hear that it was back in the shop ready for pick up. It was picked up by the Minn Kota rep and and taken to BLA where they replaced the drive Housing and main control board to fix the problem. It was then sent by courier back to Karee in les than a week. Total price for the repairs $0.

    So it will be put to good use chasing Threadies tonight fingers crossed for 1.2m+

    Regards Scott.

    Good to see a positive post. There are a lot of good dealers out there who get little recognition for going that little extra.

    I had a similar experience with BLA.

    Purchased a second-hand three-year-old Minn Kota RT55 from another Ausfisher.

    After two weeks it stopped working. Took it to BLA who discovered a leak in the engine. They totally re-built the entire electric engine, fixed the area causing the leak, tested it, cleaned it up and replaced a few other parts - all in three days.....

    When I went to pick it up I was greeted with a "this shouldn't have happened to this product" and was charged a total of $0.

    To say I was pleasantly surprised is a huge understatement.....

    BTW leak was not the fault of former owner but caused by the poor tensioning of bolts in the original assembley.

    Very nice to hear mate, you wonder whether you would get that attention to detail and service from the other brands of electric motors out there nowdays ?

    G'day,

    It's great to hear about good service, good selling and good advice. Perhaps this site needs a dedicated page for praise of those in the industry who look after customers - even if the manufacturers don't always play ball.
