Jeff Gage and his crew are exceptional. They were very helpful and took their time with you. If you have any boat needs from service to a new purchase these are my people. Plano marine for life!
We bought our 2020 G3 Sportsman-1710 in February! They worked very hard to get just what we wanted. We were very impressed with the friendly service that made the buying experience much more enjoyable. Go see them in Longview you won't be disappointed!
Recently purchased a 41 year old Skeeter Champ from Plano. I worked at Skeeter when the boat was built so it’s definitely a nostalgic boat for me. You know when you buy a used boat, especially a classic you will have some work to do to make it whole! But, Jeff and his team went above and beyond my expectations to insure that the boat was safe and ready for the lake. Thanks for the great and timely service!
Bought a boat from them 4 or so months ago and still have no paperwork. The boat broke down a month or so after I bought it, so I brought it back to them to fix it. I finely got it back 2 months later. I drove the boat home 3 and half hours drive and was fixing to put in water when I realized that ther were no screens over the big hole from my water pump. That was on a Friday, and they got them to me on a Tues. Yay I can fish now
I was thrilled with the value and service! I bought a replacement trailer for my bass boat, and they did everything necessary to make it work for me including changing out my good tires for the older ones, and making sure the lights worked right. Even arranged all the title work and sent in paperwork to get new license plate. Great service!

Buying a boat from Plano Marine - Longview / East Texas in Longview, Texas? 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 Plano Marine - Longview / East Texas which models suit the waterways near Longview, Texas.
Inspect the hull carefully

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 Plano Marine - Longview / East Texas will accommodate this request.
