We planned on staying at Riverview for just a couple of days while we stepped our mast. They do a nice job of that and this is a midway stopping point for boaters heading north or south who need their masts taken down or put back up. We ended up staying 13 days as we were waiting for hardware we needed for our new sail configuration. Some of the new hardware had to be installed on the mast. The folks at Riverview couldn’t have been more helpful. They did a great job in taking our mast off the boat so we could work on it and then days later they stepped the mast back onto our boat. Our mast is quite large weighing 1500 pounds but they were quite proficient in handling the process.
But I think what is most memorable about this marina are the people that work there and the owner himself, Mike.
The young men that he has working at the yard, Evan and Colin are such kind and considerate young men. Both are eager to help and engage in conversation. Extremely polite and helpful. Will, the more senior staff member is a key player in the mast process of taking down and putting masts back up. Very helpful and did a great job. The owner Mike is a great guy, such a positive person always grateful for his wonderful staff. He treats his staff as a family and has wonderful employees as a result. A short two stay that ended up being 13 could not have been more memorable. I will always have fond thoughts of Riverview as we also met some interesting folks who traveling on through.
Had a fantastic time with the family for early Father's Day celebration. Mike and his staff were wonderful. Highly reccomend!
This is a great place to stop for mast stepping/unstepping. The crew is knowledgeable and work with you to get the job done. There are bathrooms, showers (one male and one female) on site as well as laundry. Mike has a marine store with some parts as well. A quick walk to town and you can find a few restaurants to dine in or a Walmart an Uber ride away. Thank you!
Exceptional marina. Mike and Will are great at what they do and went above and beyond to help us. We came to get our mast unstepped - which went quickly and smoothly - and Mike and his crew ended up giving us a hand with a couple other boat projects, too. We really appreciated their help prepping the boat for the mast service as we had never done it before. They were prepared with coaching, tools, materials, and even a handy checklist that helped us get everything done ourselves instead of paying an arm and a leg. All this great service also came at a great price so we will be back the next time we're in the area.
We had a GREAT experience at RMS. They were VERY helpful and the two men who took my mast down were excellent. It was un-stepped and secured exactly how I wanted it. There was a huge variety of dis-guarded mast supports that I was able to find some to fit my boat. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were great! The prices were fair. I can't stress enough how great the staff was.
