|
Ted Fuller, Member "Because of Marinalife our Bahamas trip was enhanced by their wonderful marina recommendations in the Bahamas." |
|
Ken Crutcher, Platinum Member "You have been just AWESOME, your communication and follow up is outstanding -Thanks." |
|
Bernie & Penny Klotz, Members "You did a great job in helping us plan our first trip to the Abacos. At the last minute our traveling partner had to drop out and we had to make a decision to go it alone or cancel our trip. I called Marinalife and they set up a proposed trip, made all the reservations and indeed we did not have to "go it alone." I will continue to use Marinalife for all of our cruising. You have taken the work out of cruising." |
|
Captain Craig and Kim Rutkai, Members "Your team did the impossible and set up our itinerary where we wanted to stay but also added new spots. I looked back at the time it took me in the past on the phone and callbacks with changes and you saved me days, not hours! We operate short handed as most yachts our size and I can't see we did it before you." |
|
Ron Compton, Member "We're hooked. From here on out, it's Marinalife all the way - and back again." |
|
Sally and Oliver Miller "We are currently cruising the Great Loop and have utilized Marinalife extensively. Your staff do a wonderful job assisting us. If a marina cannot accommodate us, the staff finds alternatives. I can't imagine undertaking this trip without her! I tell everyone we meet how valuable this service is to us. Thanks for your help." |
|
John Webster, Member "Thank you Marinalife for handling all of my marina booking needs today while I was driving the ICW. It was like having an onboard cruising concierge and allowed me to focus on driving while trying to stay ahead of a storm. Huge help!" |
|
Phil Schiff, Member "An extended cruise seemed daunting and damn near impossible until I called Marinalife. Thanks to Marinalife they helped me plan and book an extended cruise from the Chesapeake Bay to New England and back. I probably never would have left my office and the dock without the Marinalife staff's guidance and bookings." |
|
Jack Gardener, Assistant Director for the Baltimore Marine Center, Baltimore, MD "We are always looking for ways to provide additional value to our customers. The Marinalife Premium Membership Program is a great way for us to offer our customers new and exciting services that will benefit them as well as create a sense of loyalty and brand awareness with the co-branded membership cards." |
|
Taine Pechet, Member "I have been using Marinalife for three years, and have become completely dependent on their services for planning all my cruises. The staff is unfalteringly helpful, the marina recommendations are always superb, and it is just plain easy. In between our cruises, I enjoy looking through the ever improving website for new ideas on our next voyage. I find myself routinely touting the benefits of Marinalife to folks I meet on the docks. I couldn't be happier." |
|
Captain Eric Brush, Member "The Sportfishlife membership has saved me so much time by offering me comprehensive information about all of the tournaments as well as where to dock my boat for each tournament. As a busy sportfish captain this is a huge help." |

|
Michael Joyce, Chairman/CEO of Hargrave Custom Yachts "When we first looked at the Marinalife program we were skeptical to say the least. It seemed like a lot of promises for what they were charging. After a careful review we signed up every one of our Hargrave owners and the feedback has been very positive. This is one of the best values in boating. I don't know why any active boater wouldn't want this service." |
|
Bob Ecuyer, Cruise Director for the Ocean Reef Cruising Club, Key Largo, FL "As the Cruise Director for the Ocean Reef Cruising Club, Marinalife has made my life so much easier. They handled all of our cruises this Spring and with the one-stop shopping concept, it cut out so many hassles and made it very easy to communicate with my members. The members also really like being able to use the Marinalife to receive discounts at many of their favorite marinas." |
|
Pamela Hetrick, Member "We have received exceptional assistance from Marinalife in planning all of our weekend trips throughout the summer. This would also entail reservations for up to 10 other boats in our group. The reservation service is phenomenal - office personnel are always polite, response time is usually the same day, we have never had an error, and it saves me valuable personal time. To add to this service, the discounts on dockage and fuel are invaluable." |

Kemba DeGroot - Diamond Marinalife Member and AGLCA Member "Many years ago when cruising the Great Loop was but a distant vision for us, we had so much to accomplish and learn about our boat and seamanship, that we didn’t even take into consideration the stops along the way. The stops at marinas are vital to the enjoyment of the overall adventure. When we got underway, we had enough on our hands without having to take time to call and check out marinas, make reservations, change reservations, and/or cancel reservations. And we were new enough to the experience that we didn’t feel like just ‘winging it” all the time, or to just take our chances with availability or dock space. When we discovered how much easier MarinaLife could make our travels, we jumped at the chance to join and have never regretted it. The team at MarinaLife is exceptional in their research and knowledge about waterway routes and locations along the way. They customize your cruising itinerary with your individual marina specifications and boat requirements. For our needs, they know that strong internet and cell phone coverage is of primary importance, since we operate our business from our boat. Imagine the hassle of having to change a string of reservations because the weather wouldn’t cooperate or some inevitable mechanical malfunction delayed your departure. Well the decision to stay in port is a lot easier when all you have to do is send an email or make one phone call and all the reservations get changed to accommodate the realities of life on a boat. We highly recommend MarinaLife to all AGLCA members, whether you have been cruising for years, or if you are new to the Great Loop adventure. We will be attending the AGLCA Rendezvous at Joe Wheeler State Park in October (2009), so look us up if you have specific questions about how MarinaLife has helped remove some of the daily concerns traveling the Loop and has helped make it that much easier to book and check in at the marinas of your choice." |

Jeff Elkin, Member "Marinalife has truly been our Cruising Concierge. Not only have their trip and marina recommendations been great, but they have handled all of the details, from setting the itinerary to making the marina reservations. In addition, the staff is fantastic to work with. Finally, the partner savings more than pay for the membership dues. It's the best value on the bay!" |
|
Charles Lindwall (Diamond Member) "I've decided to move up my schedule and continue north earlier than previously planned. Thanks again, you're extremely helpful and I think that you may be underpricing your services. You have no idea how much time you save me, and time is money." |
|
A.J. Goldberg, Member "Thank you so much for your help. Further proof that Marinalife is a terrific service that really cares about it's members." |
|
Paul & Elizabeth Bollinger, Member "I wanted you to know that I read my first MarinaLife magazine while staying at the Tides Inn in Irvington, VA. We were celebrating our 30th anniversary and the Gordon Slatford, General Manager arranged for a nice bottle of champagne to be delivered to our boat to congratulate us on celebrating at the Tides Inn. In the marina office I picked up a copy of MarinaLife and read it from cover to cover. I really enjoyed the articles and the photography. The stories by boaters about their experiences while traveling to various marinas was particularly of interest and value. Kudos for a great publication and I look forward to receiving future issues as I am now one of your newest members." |
|
Cathy Lunny, Member "We received the latest Marinalife magazine today. We have been talking about making a trip to Block Island and possibly on to Boston. Its great to hear what others have experienced...and it may prod us to go sooner rather than later." |
|
Michael Burke, Member "I appreciate your reply and I am really impressed with all you have to offer on your web site!! Great job!! Looking forward to taking advantage of all you have to offer when I get my yacht in the water again!!" |
|
Duane Kuck, President, Regal Boats "I recently used Marinalife's Cruising Concierge Services for my week-long cruise in the North East. Marinalife not only booked all of my slip reservations but was extremely helpful in locating and recommending marinas that fit my needs. The time I saved and the convenience of Marinalife was very valuable. I would recommend Marinalife and their services to anyone who enjoys boating." |
|
Dick Riley, Member "As an Ocean Alexander owner, I've been using the concierge services provided by Marinalife for years, especially the convenient reservation service. Their services have made cruising so much easier and more enjoyable. The discounts at marinas also save us a lot of money." |
|
Denise Esposito, Member "Marinalife is a terrific service. As a two professional family that loves to cruise, we have limited time to research and plan our own cruises. Marinalife has invested the time to learn what we like and has made great itinerary and marina recommendations tailored to our needs. The staff is smart, responsive, and friendly, and they handle all of the details, including marina reservations and changes (even last minute ones)." |

|
Warren and Esther Eisenhower, Members "We have received exceptional assistance from Marinalife in planning our two week cruise to the Bahamas. The timely weather reports and the day to day marina reservations, (in spite of last minute changes in itinerary), discounts on dockage and fuel, just to name a few, were invaluable." |
