Charleston Marine is by far the worst experience with a boat repair company I have ever had over 30 years.  They had my boat for over a 2 year period in which time they failed to fix the engines properly over charged  for the service, were rude and disrespectful every time I tried to get a straight answer from them.  The first work they did took just under 12 months to complete. They returned my boat disgustingly dirty which cost  me $550 to get cleaned. On the initial trial sea run it was evident that something was not right. Charleston Marine then fought with me for 90 days blaming me for the problem. I then had to turn it into my insurance company which paid out 12K to make the repairs. This took another 12 months to get done. Unfortunately when the boat was taken for another trail run  it was evident that there were still engine problems. I then contacted another marine repair company and had them go over the work done by Charleston Marine. They found that Charleston Marine had left off parts and put the engine back together wrong. This cost me another 3K in order to get it corrected. DO  YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE. THEY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND MUST  BE IN FINANCIAL TROUBLE. They always said that they were having trouble getting parts and that's what was taking so long. I found out through other sources that the owner did not do well at Yamaha repair school and it's evident with what he did with my boat that this is true! 
Not only did I lose the use of my boat for 2 years but I had to file insurance claims in order to get the work they did corrected
