Very knowledgeable, honest, and whatever he didnt have he told me who did have it. i got caught up trying to get parts they dont make anymore so he told me to give him a couple days, he texted me as soon as he found some parts. got me back up and running within the week if anyone has a gp or gpr this is who you need to take it to. Anyways thanks Rob for being on top of your game and honest with me i appreciate all the info and money saved, keep doing what your doing hard to find shops like this anymore.

Excellent jet ski repair place. Bob and his staff are very knowledgeable, easy to work with, do high quality work, and stand by their jobs. I own a jet ski rental place and they’ve done dozens of jobs for me ranging from simple stuff like steering cables to more difficult stuff like pump rebuilds to figuring out electronic issues and I’ve had no complaints. I like working with these guys. They care. They’re professional. And they charge me fair rates. They’ve even gone out of their way to locate hard to find parts in record time. Highly recommend.

A big thank you to Robert for taking care of my ski. Not only did he answer my call late at night but he scheduled me first thing in the morning to accommodate my work schedule. Robert and his team were fast, professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely use their service again and recommend them to everyone.

These guys are very professional and quick. I felt completely comfortable with them working on my ski. I also felt the price was very fare. They saved the old parts to show me what all they did and called me through out the process with any questions or updates. Highly recommended!

Impressed by Banshee Power sports! A little tough to find but worth it! He stuck to his quote showed me what he repaired and even tweaked a few extra things to make sure it was done right! They were honest and very skilled - getting me in and out in a day and back on the water that night!

Being a relative new owner to a pre-owned Jet Ski that has been sitting for a couple months in the Florida winter, I knew it needed a battery replacement before hitting the water again for Spring in order to be safe out there. On Friday evening I purchased the battery and set off to do it myself. I was only able to remove the battery before I realized the task at hand was too much for a rookie considering I now noticed I had a few extra wires hanging that I didnt recall coming off the battery (usb charger, battery tender, etc.)-- oops...I called this shop after a quick Google search and was told to simply bring it by and he would do it for me (on a Saturday morning mind you). I did exactly so and was met by Bobby and his nephew. Both were more than helpful to overlook my ski and connect the battery quickly. Only took them a few minutes while I stood-by and we chatted. I was out on the water that same afternoon. I am grateful to have found a shop that not only has a family dynamic but also one where the owner goes beyond for customers and enjoys what he does in and out of work. Thanks again for the friendly assistance and no non-sense approach on doing business-- Ill see you in a few weeks for maintenance on the ski.

Robert and his crew were awesome! Very efficient and affordable! He got our jet ski up and running within the hour! He knew exactly what the issue was just from a quick phone convo! We are from Orlando but will be driving over for him to service all of out skis! Thanks again Robert

I took my two Seadoos to Rob off the recommendation of a friend. My intercoolers were going bad and the dealer wanted a CRAZY price. I contacted Rob told him the issues I was having and he said he would take a look. I had him change both intercoolers and he also took care of some other minor issues once he dove in the skis. the next day I tested the both skis and they preformed at peak performance. SIDE NOTE: In a past life I was a helicopter mechanic and I hold a very high degree of perfection when doing maintenance on my equipment. I am also very suspect to anyone touching anything mechanical, but Rob did a fantastic job. His shop was clean and organized which says a lot about the type of mechanic he is. He is very professional and completed the job in a very timely manner. His prices were great, I give a full 5 STAR. I will use his mechanical expertise for all my watercraft needs.

Bob and his team are World Class. Ive used him for years on Yamaha, Seadoo, Honda and more, and never a glitch. The prices are so much less than all the other options. The workmanship is the best.

I ran into an issue with my reverse cable on my waverunner. I gave Rob at banshee a call . I explained my issue, he told me it could possibly be frozen and what to do to fix it. I gave it a shot but wasnt able to get it to work . Rob told me to bring it in first thing and he will look at it and un freeze it for no charge. Unfortunately it turned out to be broke, he showed me the broken cable. A quick call produced a new cable and do to my hour drive he was able to squeeze me in . A short time later it was repaired and I was on my drive back home. Rob is highly recommended by myself. He is extremely honest and not just after a persons money. He is thorough and takes time to go over repairs with you.

Overall great experience and low price. I scheduled my oil change and got in and out the same day. I appreciate the in-depth walkthrough afterwards and learned a lot about my jet ski. Im thankful to have found a mechanic that is affordable, kind, and thorough. I will be bringing my ski here for future services and Im happy to have found a knowledgeable mechanic.

Banshee Power Sports is the only shop I would consider taking my jet skis for repair. The owner, Robert, has been working on my skis for years and always provides honest, trustworthy and amazing service. Whether he was working on my very old skis that needed a lot of repair or the brand new ski for maintenance, I always know he is providing meticulous service and honest assessments while looking out for my best interests and not his own gain. You can count on Robert and his staff to always operate with utmost integrity and provide exceptional service.

Review №33

I’ll start it off by saying these guys are life savers! I drive over an hour just to get the quality work done by Banshee. I have been in and out the shop countless times with my 93 Waverunner and I’ve been treated like nothing but family. No matter the drive, I’ll always use Banshee!

Review №34

This review unfortunately is off of the fact that the guy cant be reached. Spoke with him months back and set up a time to drop my ski on a Saturday morning. I dont believe they are open on Saturday but was told to bring the ski. Finding the place was tough but was able to do so. Knocked on the door and no answer. Waited for about 20 minutes after calling multiple times before leaving. Wasted Saturday morning.Months later I was given a recommendation for this place again. I decided to give it a other try. Owner responded once. And then never again after that after some messages. They may do good work but this is no way to get new customers to buy in to a small business. Would have liked yo give it a try but oh well. Will find another.

Very heard to find such a good business! I am not basing my review of a one single experience... I have taken several of my skis to Robert and I have NEVER once had a bad experience! His team is very knowledgeable and professional also! Robert gives his team hands on knowledgeable of everything he knows. Seems to be very patient and a very good teacher! Even when explaining how things work to me...he has a way of explaining that is so easy to understand!He is always swamped with work overload but still makes time for more and more customers! Prices are better than I have ever seen!Its kind of funny...every time I drive up to the Banshee shop, Rob is always super busy...they all are. You can tell he has a million things going on but the guy ALWAYS has a smile on his face! Great personality!If you have a ski that needs work...just try Banshee Powersports. You wont be disappointed! If you happen to have had a bad experience... i say, try one more time. Bring your experience to Rob...he will always take care of you!Banshee powersports for life!GREAT work team!!!

First time getting service as a new pwc owner. Had no idea what to expect and could have easily been taken advantage of...cost was far less then anticipated compared to the local sea doo dealer near me. Owner Rob is real good guy and Explained allot to me and gave advice/pointers about care of pwc. Will definitely use for future service.

Review №37

Bob goes above and beyond his duties and any expectations you may have. He provide the utmost customer service experience from the very first point of contact and takes care of your pwc as if it were his own. He is patient and provides information along the way so you fully understand whats being done with your equipment. He has vast knowledge and does not mind sharing. I am glad I got referred to Banshee and will most definitely be using his services moving forward. Thank you Bob, the jet boat ran great the first time i put her on the water!!!

Coming from up north and owning jet skis since I was a teenager. Moving to Florida and trying to find a reputable mechanic for my wave runners I though it would be a nightmare and it was for a moment. Then I came across Banshee power sports. Bob is beyond an amazing mechanic he pushes it to the limit and never gives up until he finds the issue. Not only is he the best mechanic I have came across since I have been here for the last 5 years and I have used quite a few. He is beyond fair with pricing. You can trust him to the fullest with your ski trustworthy reliable and fair. Also I have to say his staff is amazing they make it worth the wait..Yes now with this pandemic going on and things having to be ordered and mailed through UPS etc. Your wait might be a little longer and yes he cant get the phone ASAP (which is a good thing BECAUSE HE IS BUSY FIXING EVERYONES SKI) but that is not the norm when life was pre covd. So be patient. All things that are the best are worth waiting for. So is BOB AND HIS TEAM AT BANSHEE POWER SPORTS.PS. I have to say also I was there one day over heard 3 guys talking and all they could say was I hope this guy keeps working on skis till the day I die because I wont go anywhere else the other 2 guys replied thats the truth. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU GUYS DO TO KEEP US ON THE WATER5 STARS FOR ME

Great service, and a very trustworthy owner. He takes his job serious and treats your ski and you with respect, explaining anything youd like and educating you along the way so youre a better rider going forward, and can better care for your ski.Much better priced than any dealership, I couldnt imagine paying twice the price for someone who doesnt care about their job about half the time (in my experience, not saying its true for all techs).

If your looking for an honest mechanic who will tell you exactly what you need for your machine and how to keep it at peak performance, then look at nobody but Rob here at Banshee Powersports. He is authorized by SBT and has the latest software to plug into your machine and give you full diagnostics of your machines ECU as well as program keys and anything else your machine needs. Even though Im a mechanic myself, the friendship, knowledge and skill he has is second to none. Hes recovered both of my skis seats and made them look new again. Look nowhere else for the best service in the industry.

Robert is the ONLY person, not just mechanic, that I trust with my jet skis! He knows his stuff on all makes and models, not just one particular brand. If you want your ski done right and want to save money at the same time, then Robert Doherty and Banshee Power Sports is this place to go!!! He can do it all from check ups to tune ups and from graphics to rebuilds.

Hands down, the best jetski mechanic i have seen in the bay area! Nothing makes riding jetskis more fun other than having a great, reliable and most of all HONEST mechanic work on your machine. Robert pays attention to the smallest details and is very meticulous with his work. His prices are very fair and by far very reasonable I highly recommend to anyone in the PWC hobby. Thank you for all your work brother, much respect - jose.
