Once again I just have to say that in the marine industry myself, I am extremely thankful I have people like Julie and Christine at SWS in Port Carling to help me move, transport, and assist me in every way possible should require their assistance. They are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable and solve my issues every time. The men at the shop are above and beyond knowledgeable in their engine work and repair. I have all the faith in the world for them to solve the "ghosts in the machine". Keep up the great work.

We rented a pontoon boat with family on the Friday of Labour Day weekend. Val was tremendously helpful when we arrived and was just a helpful when we arrived back after a day on the water. The boat was easy to maneuver and dock. Enjoyed the entire day, even though it was a bit cool on the water but we were prepared with extra clothing. Highly recommend SWS for boat rentals. We will be back next summer to rent from you again.

I had taken the 1956 Chris Craft out for its maiden journey this year. The boat conked out on the lake and was towed over to SWS on the Muskoka lake side. Scott came out checked the engine. He quickly diagnosed the problem and fixed it with a new part. Scott was great knew what he was doing and fixed it with no fuss or muss and we were on our way to enjoy the rest of the day.

What an absolutely fantastic experience for my son who wanted to try wake boarding for the first time. The SWS Team was super supportive as they provided him instruction on how to get himself up on the board, and they continued to be positive throughout the entire lesson.

Our experience at SWS was outstanding! Emily and Addy were incredibly patient and went the extra mile to make it a super positive experience for new skiers.

Had Emily & Scarlet take the gang out for 3 hours. Communication was excellent leading up to the day we took out the boat. Experience was great, no complications at pickup or during the session. They provided great guidance to the beginners on the boat and allowed some time for fun at the end. If you'd like to enjoy some water sports in the Muskoka Lakes area, highly recommend SWS.

My family had a super great experience. The instructors were very patient with my young grandchildren and managed to get them to “try” something they had never done before. They will be back to try a full day camp to “try” again.
