What a great experience. I had the privilege of working with John Powell on the purchase of our 2018 Monterey 238SS. From start to finish the level of knowledge and professionalism was easily a 10/10. Not only was all our question answered but a considerable amount of time was spent helping us find the right boat that fit our families mission. At no time did we feel rushed or pressured and to be quite honest we enjoyed this buying experience. Even after purchase I'm still getting random questions answered that sometimes you don't think of until post purchase. This is a great company with great people from top to bottom. Id also like to give a shout out to Thiea Wellborn, the business manager who also helped us with finance options, extended warranty questions and insurance coverages. She spent a great deal of time explaining all our options and warranty coverages leaving us with no concerns with a used boat. Last but not least Id like to mention the quality of the boat. A 2018, a 7 year old boat. I was nervous about this. After reading all the things that the service department did to get this boat to a point where they felt comfortable putting their reputation on the line to sale it to us, again, I left there feeling 100% at ease. They leave not stone unturned. I HIGHLY recommend MarineMax and John Powell for your first or next boat purchase.
Purchased used GW Freedom 275 from the store listed by the saleman who orginally sold the boat. It was now a brokered listing. Had survey done with salesman operating vessel the whole sea trial. Came back good so then we did a sea trial. Drove 6.5 hours for the sea trial and saleman was 35 min late. On sea trial, (the 6 min sea trial) we were not allowed to operate vessel. Per surveyor and us, we purchased and hired MM Pensacola service install $12,000 worth of brand new electronics after verifying any MM dealer could fix any problems should they arise due to install or problems. We took delivery of boat, launched boat and immediately both engines went up when throttles engaged into forward gear. Reverse its fine. And yes, if you keep your thumb on the down button they will stay down until you release down button. 2 weeks later still no answer on fixing boat and still cant use. Good times
Hello, my wife and I love LT John USN @ Marine Max. John is personable, knowledgeable, professional and relentless in his endeavor to please us. John took the time to get to know us and find the right boat fit for our wants and needs. Must be his Navy discipline, a fine man or both how he stayed in great communication with us and diligently worked for us. Thank you Lt. John first for your service to our nation. God Speed sir.

Just completed the purchase of a 2018 Grady White 375 freedom with John Powell. Not sure if he is related to Jerome Powell or not but if so perhaps he can persuade him to lower interest rates a bit so I can afford a bigger boat next year.;). I purchased from Canada entirely over the phone and over the Internet and John was super, super helpful and worked with me patiently. He was very upfront about the history of the boat and shared with me the survey that Marine Max had completed on it and all/any relevant repairs that have been done. He even tracked down the original dealer that sold the boat. John took the time to take videos of every inch of the hull and the motors etc. He also negotiated a very fair price with management, arranged for deliver to Miami and even helped me with insurance. Awesome dude. Lots of integrity. Give this guy a raise MarineMax. Overall a great experience with John and I highly recommend him to others.
Exceptional Experience Buying Our Grady White from MarineMax! We recently purchased a Grady White from MarineMax, and I can’t say enough about how smooth and enjoyable the entire process was from start to finish. If you’re in the market for a high-quality boat, look no further—these folks made what could have been a stressful experience feel like a seamless adventure. Our journey began with Daniel in sales, who was an absolute standout. From the moment we walked into the marina, his knowledge of the Grady White lineup was impressive—he didn’t just rattle off specs; he listened to our needs (family coastal cruising with some fishing) and tailored recommendations perfectly. He walked us through financing options, demoed the boat on the water, and even customized our setup. Daniel’s no-pressure approach made us feel valued, not sold to. We closed the deal feeling confident and excited. Once the boat was ours, Captain Joe took over for captain training, and wow—what a game-changer! Joe’s sessions were hands-on and patient, covering everything from docking techniques to engine basics, all while sharing pro tips and maintenance walkthroughs for Grady White owners. He ensured we were fully equipped to handle any scenario. The training was thorough, fun, and scheduled around our availability—top-notch service all the way. Derrick in service was great at getting all of the customization installed and set up on the boat including Garmin, radar, trolling motor and stereo. MarineMax truly exceeded our expectations at every turn. If you’re eyeing a Grady White or any other boat hit up Daniel Deaibes—you won’t regret it. Five stars all around! 🚤

Buying a boat from MarineMax Boston in Pensacola, Florida? Use this guide to evaluate any listing before you commit.
Match the boat to your waters
Pontoons and deck boats suit calm lakes. Deep-V hulls handle chop on larger lakes and coastal water. Center consoles are versatile for fishing. Ask MarineMax Boston which models suit the waterways near Pensacola, Florida.
Inspect the hull carefully
Look for stress cracks, blistering, or repairs on fiberglass hulls. Check the transom for soft spots by pressing firmly — a solid transom feels rigid. Osmotic blistering costs thousands to repair.
Check engine hours
Inboard and outboard engines are typically rated to 1,500–3,000 hours. Low-hour engines with service records are worth more. Ask to see oil change and winterization records for any boat at MarineMax Boston.
Request a sea trial
Test the boat on the water before buying. Run it at full throttle. Listen for unusual noises. Check that the throttle and steering respond smoothly. Reputable dealers like MarineMax Boston will accommodate this request.
Verify title and registration
Ask for the current title and confirm the hull identification number (HIN) matches. Check for any liens with your state boating agency. MarineMax Boston should be able to walk you through the paperwork.
