John Mullen, better known in the boating industry as the legendary "Ugly John", had a great deal of racing success, indeed, in his younger years-as his numerous trophies will attest. He raced from 1974 thru 1986, capturing three national speed records, two national championships and a world championship in drag boats and offshore racing. So how did this boat sales/marina dynasty begin over four decades ago?
Jeremy and Quince went above and beyond to put me in a very nice surf boat for the family!!!!
Cooper and Jeremy were great to deal with. They communicate well and get things done. Ugly John’s is a definite recommend!!
This last saturday two family's of us ordered food at the same time (separate chks) The other family got there food in normal time. My wife & I didn't get our food until after the other family had totally finished. The waitresses were no help.
Just couldn't get anyone at the Catoosa office to return a phone call. Always went to voice mail during business hours after ringing a while. Sent requests off their internet page but never heard back. Wasn't until over a week later that I called the Grand Lake office and reached an employee. Wasn't the most friendly but referred a sales person to me. The guy called and left a voice mail for me to call him on Monday! Really. Who's making the sell? Anyhow, long story made short - 2 boats I was interested in buying sold by the time I got anyone to reply back to me. Not saying that I would've bought either but very likely - wasn't willing to drive 3 hours without knowing inventory just to find out. What's so hard about answering a text? Takes like seconds to say "sorry, sold that boat. Can I help you find another?".
These guys are some of the biggest crooks I have ever dealt with. They sold me a new boat with a motor that burned oil like crazy. I took the boat in to be checked out and was informed the motor is known to burn oil. Conveniently they didn't know about this issue when they sold me the boat. I called several other dealerships and even called the manufacturer with the same answer. That's not a problem we have ever heard of. To remedy the problem they offered to buy the boat back at $20,000 under what the boat was worth. When I tried talk to the owner about it his only response was I've lost more than that on a boat. After buying multiple motorhomes, boats and a classic car with these guys. I can guarantee neither myself nor anyone in my family will ever do business with them again.

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 Ugly John's Custom Boats - Lake Eufaula which models suit the waterways near Eufaula, Oklahoma.
Inspect the hull carefully
