Kyle at WOT was fantastic throughout the entire process. He kept me well informed about all of the issues and help prioritize the order of the repairs & the worst case cost. In short, the boat is back in the water earlier then expected, running better then it was before it had issues (I thought it was running good until I got it back from WOT....it’s like a new boat!) & best of all the repairs were UNDER BUDGET by 35%. Which saved thousands of dollars- obviously it’s a boat (bust out another thousand). I’ll never consider another boat mechanic in San Diego.THANK YOU! My family and I are so happy to be out on the water for Memorial Day Weekend!!

The staff at WOT are hands down the most helpful and straight forward people around. Aubrey has helped me source so many tough to find and old parts. Kyle freely offers advice and will help out any way he can. One stop shop!

Best customer service ever. The team at WOT are upfront honest and do great work. They go out of their way to help you. I have been boating for many years and they are the best dealer I have ever worked with

I took my boat in expecting them to have it a month due to all of the repairs that needed to be done. Within 2 weeks I had my boat back and its better than it ever was. WOT went above and beyond my expectations. I cannot say enough about the quality of work and professionalism, also the fact that they had my boat in and out in a very timely matter. I would highly recommend this business to anyone.

As a 15 year professional boater, I have had a reason to visit nearly every shop in Southern California at one time or another. Kyle and Cole at WOT Marine are just next level professional. Their shop is tight, their workmanship is detailed and thorough. They have exceeded my expectations with every service. They explain service options in advance and keep records to know what has been done to my vessel for years. Trailer work, vessel detailing, electronic equipment installations, they do it all and do it right. Not sure what to do or how much it will cost? Call and put your mind at ease. You will never regret it. Thanks guys for looking after me.

Cole and the whole team at WOT are awesome! Super professional and very friendly, they made time to explain the system for me and options available. They replaced my gimble bearing and did an outdrive service on my B2, checked compression on my engine and fixed a whole mess of odds an ends that helped get me back on water. Anyone in North County should go there, Support Local companies!!!

Kyle and Aubrey are wonderful people. WOT Marine takes the very best care of our boat for us. Thank you!

It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Wide Open Throttle Marine (WOT), its’ owner Kyle and his entire staff.I’ve owned several boats over the past 30 years back on the east coast. Last year, I purchased a used Donzi, fixed it up aesthetically but wanted a good mechanic to look over the boat. I met Kyle at his shop and gave him a list of things I wanted him to look into and fix. Kyle took his time and went over each item with me. I never felt rushed.I was used to (and was expecting) the shop to work on my boat when they got around to it…like most other shops I have dealt with. I was amazed to receive a call from Kyle almost on a daily basis with updates, questions, etc. I can’t say enough about the knowledge and expertise of their entire staff. They meticulously went through the engines, notified (and explained to me) all the issues and provided me with details how they would correct them.Kyle has gone above and beyond to make sure I’m comfortable and satisfied. They are professional and reasonably priced…not something commonly found in this industry.I will only use Wide Open Throttle for any needs I may have in the future. No question…they are the best.

Doesnt get any better then this place!!

I have been taking my boat to WOT Marine since they opened. I live in Carlsbad and have known the owners for several years as they were neighbors. They do excellent work at a fair price and have always had my boat done on time. I would never use another mechanic on my boat and I highly recommend them.Todd Williams

I would highly recommend WOT Marine! 3 days before a trip to Havasu my boat would not turn over. Panic set in that I would have to cancel. I scrambled and found WOT. I called and was able to drop my boat off that day. Kyle and his crew saved my trip by fixing the problem and were even able to squeeze in a scheduled service on the motor. I will 100% be back for any other needed boat service and maintenance.

WOT Marine has serviced our boat, to include doing fiberglass work and have done a great job! They picked up and return our boat and placed it back into our garage while we were out of town as well! Kudos for a job well done!

Great service. Kyle is very knowledgeable and really takes care of your boat. Prices are fair, Timing is right. If you need a boat service or repair, this is the best place you can go.

If you currently own a power boat or if you are considering purchasing a new or used boat and you live in San Diego County then in my humble opinion you should check out Wide Open Throttle Marine, (WOT Marine). Kyle Lancon ownes this business and upon meeting him I immediately got the vibe he cares about his customers. Kyle is in business for the long haul, not a once and done transaction.I thought I was out of the boat ownership game until I recently stumbled across my “dream hull” for sale, a 1989 Boston whaler 20’ outrage powered by a “vintage” 150 HP Yamaha. The boat came with a Pacific dual axle trailer. Prior to “pulling the trigger” on the purchase I brought the boat to WOT. Kyle recognized my excitement and he was a huge help in managing my expectations by being honest and up front regarding upgrades I was considering and my budget. Kyle took the time to go through the entire boat by inspecting wiring connections, fuel tank, engine compression, bilge pumps, seat cushions (he even asked me about old and cracked cup holders). That’s not all, Kyle also completed a check of the trailer including tires, trailer brakes, lights, straps, bunks… the list goes on but at least I was in a better position to determine if my “dream boat” was something my family could afford.Wide Open Throttle Marine does it all, except painting. The shop removed and installed the boats old fuel tank and replaced it with a new custom fabricated fuel cell with walls twice as thick as the factory tank. Kyle’s crew installed an aftermarket Stryker T-top, installed a new Simrad chart plotter/depth finder, added Lenco trim tabs and they even found a shop to make new seat cushions. The wiring job was impeccable, and all looked like it came from the factory.I could go on, but I would rather go boating! I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with Kyle and Wide-Open Throttle.

Family owned and operated. Good guys. Keep thier commitments. Much better than the tool bag that runs Cal Kona Marine. I would rather sink my boat then take it there again

Great job on my hydrolic steering system thanks Kyle

Excellent service from knowledgeable professionals. Jim, Kyle, and Cole are all great guys that are down to earth and extremely helpful.

First class service. Very knowledgeable & want only the best solution for the customer.

Once again Kyle knocked it out of the park with servicing our 26 yo Stoker. Seasonal service and new carpet. Boat looks brand new

Good work
