I've exclusively used Lodder's Marine since 2008 for all my service, parts and accessory needs. My experience with Kevin and his team in the Service Department has been nothing short of amazing to work with. They are informative, personable, honest and professional. I will have no problem giving you all my highest remarks. Job well done!Dennis Hjort, OH | Caravelle 237 LS Owner

Lodders Marine is truly the best place in the city to get your boat maintenance, repairs etc. Its actually a long drive for me in relation to the others in town. However, with the other boat repair shops, they charge me and arm and a leg and often times dont fix the problem. Kevin Owens and his team wouldnt even let me pull out without checking lights, tire pressure etc. Highly recommend.

We bought our Yamaha from Lodder's a few years ago. We came back this summer to purchase accessories for our boat. Kevin took care of us! They are mindful of our hour drive to get there and give us excellent customer service.

Dana Haddix Sherry -
Had a wonderful experience with Brad! Drove 2 hours from Columbus to Lodders for our first Yamaha boat. Brad was knowledgeable about the product he was selling. Went over every part and feature of the boat with us. Despite us coming down late in the day, Brad and his team made sure we got the transaction done in one day. The dealership is huge! Lots of inventory. Showroom was very clean. Lots of models to check out on the floor. Will keep Lodders and Brad in mind when its time to upgrade !
Noah Abner -
Lodder's marine is the best marine dealer in the Cincinnati-Dayton area. I have purchased 5 boats in my lifetime. The last 2 were from Lodder's. The selection is incredible. More importantly the sales staff (Brad) and the service staff are top notch. I would highly recommend that everyone checks out this marine dealer before buying a new or used boat! Thanks. Jim

We just purchased a 2019 Bennington. We spent a LOT of time making our decision. Wayne was beyond patient and helpful. He was not pushy, and we appreciated his honesty when giving us recommendations.
Judy Schaechter Helm -
Lodder's Marine is the best of the best in the Cincinnati area! Family owned, family operated, and customer focused. They are a Top 100 dealer for a reason, do yourself a favor and shop here, they will treat you RIGHT!

Had Yamaha manufacturing issue on my 2017 210SX and Lodders went well beyond to help fix the the problem and took very good care of us on additional work we had done. I want to thank Jeff and Brad in sales and Kevin and Jason in service for all they did!

Craig Armbruster -
We have been going to Lodder's ever since another local shop didn't give us the customer service we deserved. Haven't doubted that decision ever since!! They are a great group of people, who actually treat you like friends/family & care about you!! In particular, I've dealt with Kevin (service) the most. He has never made me doubt anything he's ever recommended or done!! He treats me like I am the most important person there....& I love it!! Everyone likes to feel "special". I would recommend them to any of my friends & I would never take my boat anywhere else. LOVE THEM!!!!
Amy Albery Phelps -
Thank you Joe Lay!!! Great boat buying experience!!!! Will definitely recommend that people come to you to buy their next boat!!! We love our new Yamaha SX210! (Put 8 hours on it the first weekend!)
Dave Grubb -
Buying a boat from Lodders was a great experience. Kevin started by helping us at the boat show and followed us throughout the process. He made sure we had everything we needed. A huge plus in buying our boat was the involvement of Kevin. A huge asset to Lodders.
Chad Dennis -
We bought a pontoon! We love it. It is our first boat and we enjoyed our weekend. The gentlemen that sold us the pontoon also delivered it to our camp lake. They trained us on the boat. They also said, call, text...anytime. I looked at used pontoons, I reviewed other marinas, Lodders came out on top! It was a great decision.
Claire Kubiak -
Brad Weinstock was our sales rep, and he took exceptional care of us! He ensured we were well educated about our boat as we are first time boat owners. Highly recommend.
Bethany Weiser -
Excellent service and sales. Great family run business.
Erin Durbin -
I highly recommend Lodder's Marine for both sales and service. I bought my boat there and have always had it serviced there. I've always dealt with Kevin Owens, the Service Manager. His professional service and attention to detail is why I keep coming back year after year.
Phil Smith -
One thing about this place, if you have a problem, they WILL take care of it. Really nice showroom and the people are cool too
Jonathan Wilson -
Had a very pleasant experience dealing with them. Marty was pretty knowledgeable about the Yamaha boat series and was able to help with any questions and help us through the process. Craig really made the financing go smooth and simple. When we picked it up they made sure everything was correct, we had everything we need, and walked us through everything with the boat. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a new or used boat. We absolutely love our new SX210!
Christian Murphy -
Great customer service... very friendly staff and crew out back when I unload fresh from the factory Benningtons!
Lorin Crosby -
Love Lodder's Marine and have been doing business with them for 10 or 11 years now. We are very particular (tee hee) with the way our boat is taken care of and Kevin Owens, our service rep, always does a great job making sure everything is taken care of to our liking. We so appreciate the friendly, personal service we get from Sonny, Kevin and the rest of Lodder's staff.
Rhonda Smith -
We had a very pleasant buying experience and love the beautiful new boat! Thanks Lodder's!
Isaac Humphrey -
Steve, Kevin and the tech Michael were ALL so helpful in getting our used boat right!!! Even though it was not purchased from them, they were very helpful in pointing out issues that needed to be resolved. They found numerous wiring issues that Michael did a fantastic job on repairing. And even after some "operator error" on my part after they were done with the job, they too extra time to help me out so as to not repeat those mistakes. So, if they take this good care of a customer who didn't even purchase from them, imagine the service you get if you would buy from them!!! We may be a couple years away from our next boat purchase, but, Lodder's Marine is where we will start out next search.
Thanks again guys!!!Rob Schlemmer -
You will not find another dealer like Lodders!!

I recently decided to purchase a new boat. I had pretty much decided the yamaha 212x was the right boat for me. Lodders Marine sales person
( Brad ) Helped us from the outset. He was not high pressure and answered all our questions. Unfortunately one detail about the 212x that I asked about several times was relayed incorrectly to me. It was wether or not the 2017 212x has a GPS controlled speed option. Both the yamaha website and boat test Give the impression that it does. And I was told by Brad that it did indeed have it. This was vital for me since I wakeboard and it is near impossible to hold speed on a jet boat while wake boarding. Long story short, Throughout the entire process after I bought the boat and found out it didn't have the feature on it, Lodders marine was a great company to deal with. Brad our sales guy stated that he did give information that was incorrect and that he and management would make sure it was made right. They researched options and allowed me to look into my own options that I would be happy with. In the end they purchased and installed an aftermarket GPS controller that I picked out with $0 charged to me. I was never made to feel like I was putting them out or made to feel like it was a fault of my own. I cannot say enough about a company that does the right thing when things don't go as planned. Mistakes happen and how you deal with them is what makes the difference between a good company and just another place to take your money. Although more were involved in the process and deserve credit, I only dealt with a couple of people. Brad our sales guy and Jason who helped me with the selection and install of the controller. Both deserve credit for how this was handled, as well as management and ultimately the owners of the business. I would not hesitate to recommend any one to purchase from Lodder's Marine.Jason Mesman -
Bought a new boat from Lodders this winter. We have had 2 intermittent issues. Jason / Kevin and WHOLE Lodders team have communicated great all summer. Me not wanting to miss any weekends finally let them take the boat last Monday, thinking I was going to miss at least one weekend. Jason called on Wednesday and told me I was good to go. Amazing. 0 time missed.
It is nice to know they will continue to stand by what they sell.
Thank you!

My family has had a boat for years and we thought it was time for a new one so we searched and looked around at multiple places but the guys Brad, Bob and Craig at the Fairfield Lodders were awesome to work with and that also doesn't even explain Kevin and his team in the parts, service and accessories area. Kevin especially took care of us for all our new accessories we wanted for the new boat. We would not hesitate to send anyone or buy from these guys again, they are a good group of people!
