Keeping

fixing boats is not a

bet anyone wants to take.

Here’s why. Dave has been

repairing boats for over 30

years. He has gone from traveling

to home docks with tool

boxes offering dockside repairs

to owning Giannone Marine,

800 S. Federal Hwy. Pompano

Beach, a company with water

access employing over 30

people.

Dave sold the business to

Aqua Toy Store in 2002, took

an eight-year hiatus, returned

and took over boat repairs as

well as brokering sales of used

boats.

Now he is back in the same

space with his new company

since 2010, Complete Marine.

Dave is using up every inch

of space with sales, dockage,

repairs and storage.

“Sales are really good now

for used boats,” he says. “The

industry is more solid today.

People are recognizing a good

deal in this economy. I’ve got

an acre of boats. They are good

boats for good prices.”

Service

The slogan here is “From

Bottoms to Repower, We Do It

All.” And Dave says he and his

crew “. . . abide by that.”

Complete Marine offers a

25-ton travel lift and a 10-ton

forklift for dry-docking, painting

and repairs.

Complete Marine also offers

a wide variety of bottom

and anti-fouling paint. They

can haul power and sail boats,

and many captains just motor

their way to Complete Marine

for the work they need.

“We can handle anything

from a 2-HP outboard engine

to a 1,000-HP diesel,” he says.

Complete marine also offers

fiberglass repairs and prepurchase

marine inspections.

And Dave says service is

“important” to maintain a safe

vessel.

“Boats should be seen for

yearly service, and it’s critical

to have a trained eye to

look at a boat. We can repair
