    On 11/28/22 my husband and I purchased a boat lift and 20’ aluminum walkboards from Rocktown Boat Lifts for $10,205. We paid a deposit of $1000 shortly afterwards. The boat lift was delivered and installed (without the aluminum walkboards) in our slip at Fall Creek Marina on 1/18/22. Although the aluminum walkboards were not delivered at that time, we still paid the remaining balance of $9,205 in full with the expectation we would have the walkboards soon.

    Since then we have made multiple attempts to determine when we would have the aluminum walkboards installed as we were promised. We have tried on multiple occasions to complete resolve this situation. A few examples include:
    2/21/23 - We texted if the walkway come in. NO RESPONSE FROM ROCKTOWN BOAT LIFTS.
    4/3/23 - We texted if the walkway had been installed. NO RESPONSE FROM ROCKTOWN BOAT LIFTS.
    4/9/23 - We texted we were at the marina and the walkway had not been installed and asked when it would be installed. NO RESPONSE FROM ROCKTOWN BOAT LIFTS.
    4/14/23 - We texted if you were able to get us “squared away”. THIS TIME WE RECEIVED A RESPONSE ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH BRACKETS
    4/14/23 - We texted about getting a date on when the work will be complete. NO RESPONSE FROM ROCKTOWN BOAT LIFTS.
    5/4/23 - We called and left voice mail about returning the money we paid for the walkboards. NO RESPONSE FROM ROCKTOWN BOAT LIFTS.

    We no longer have faith Rocktown Boat Lifts will install our walkboards. We are coming up on 4 months since we’ve paid in full with no results. Our invoice from Rocktown Boat Lifts itemized the lift and aluminum walkboards. The walkboards were priced at $1,425, so we are seeking the return of that money. Rocktown Boat Lifts will not return our calls and has not sent the requested refund as of this report.
