Services
If you can remember back when Clark Marine originated in Downtown Gardiner, you would be of the World War II Generation. Shortly after being honorably discharged from the United States Armed Services, Walter Clark and Gerald Harriman opened Clark Buick on Mechanic Street in Gardiner. It was the late 40's and things were booming!
Clark Marine has a long history in and around the Kennebec Valley region of Maine. I will spare you all the boring details of each move and our many storied accomplishments. Please visit our "Why Clark Marine" pages for a few specific reasons as to why we should be the company you choose to boat with.
Protect your summertime investment from the cold! Each winterization we perform includes a thorough check of all boat, motor and trailer systems. By following a carefully laid-out process, including a 38 point boat motor & trailer safety check sheet, we are able to provide you with the most complete service available.
We have been to known to be rather flexible when it comes to the pricing of our new and used boats. Many times the asking price can be further negotiated. Give us a try! So as mentioned, we might not have a series of Manufacturer Boat Show Discounts working for us at this time of the year but it but it does not mean we can't create a sale just for you!
Boating safety is something that we take very seriously here at Clark Marine. When we send you on your summer adventures, we care that you enjoy your boat safely, so you can for years to come. 1. Boating is not a mixer with your alcohol, so keep them separate. Driving a boat is just as serious as driving a car, and therefore operating a boat under the influence is just as serious.

Sloppy service work, horrible customer service for parts. Don’t bring a nice boat here.
I recently purchased a used, near-mint, Crestliner and contacted Clark Marine for a bunch of miscellaneous parts (e.g., manual, bimini curtains, 4th seat) and to transfer the warranty, which you can only do through a dealer. Long story short, service department did a hack-job (see picture) and didn’t fix the problem, the parts department was lackadaisical to be nice about it, and it all culminated with a bizarre interaction with the clearly defensive owner when I picked up my boat. (In the past I’ve used

Hello Mr. Brown,
Let me 1st say, I am sorry you will not call me to deal with this directly. We are so very disappointed. This would never have been posted.
My daughter found covers were found in the back of the boat in the engine compartment, sitting in water, rolled up in a ball 1 day after you delivered the boat to the lake on June 8th. The photos we sent to Brian, and the video show this. The clear plastic is cracked, tattered, ruined. When you picked up the boat in September, the boat was fully covered, same as it has been for the two seasons we have stored our boat with you. We love the

I retired last summer and thought, never having owned a boat, it was about time that I did. Trouble is I procrastinate - all the time. So the summer went by and no boat. On a rainy late October day a fishing buddy of mine suggested we go look as some boats because we might find an end of year deal. We ended up at Clark Marine and talked with Jake Stewart. After questioning me about why I wanted a boat, Jake showed me a previously owned boat that checked all my boxes. With my wife's approval, we made the deal. Clark Marine stored it for me and I anxiously waited the long winter. On boat pick up

My relationship with all Clark employees is positive and comfortable---I just want to extend a special thanks to Ian.

Clark Marine has been exceptional with all of our boating needs. Their parts department is incredibly knowledgeable and very helpful. Every time I have called to see if they have a part in stock that we need, they are quick to find out if they have it, or to come up with options to get the part in. Ordering parts has always been a fast turn around time too! The entire staff is friendly and willing to help. Every time I have done business with them has been an excellent experience.

I'm an avid fisherman and tournament angler. If my boat or my equipment is down, I can't fish. Clark Marine is close by and is always able to get the parts I need to get my boat or gear back on the water fast! The entire crew is helpful and knowledgeable about the parts and equipment they sell and service.

My husband Pete and I have been dealing with Clark Marine for approximately 12 years. We have purchased two boats from them and have been completely satisfied. From the counter, to the service department,, to employees and owners Rob and Nancy, their PR has been exceptional!!! We would highly recommend Clark Marine to anyone who is looking to purchase a boat or have their boat serviced!!! Great dealership to work with
