This is a family business owned by the same people as long as I have lived in Vancouver. They live and breathe boating and are extremely helpful. They've got a good line up of competitively priced and quality inflatable boats ... and they are conveniently located.

Avoid this place. It is bewildering to think of how this place can continue to do business with such a poor quality of customer service and responsibility.

A simple repair to an inflatable boat took 5 weeks more than quoted to repair. Furthermore, when I was called to pick up the boat, it was nowhere to be found... 8 weeks later and I still don't have it.

These guys are professional blame-gamers, and not one single person working here was willing to accept responsibility for a horrible experience, let alone offer any type of solution to make up for such a nightmare.

These guys have the

Misogynistic, unhelpful, and misleading. These guys clearly don't care about your business or your boat. Worse, if you are female, don't bother. I had a male friend call with the same question who was treated like a proper human. If you want them to ship something to one of the many remote places you might have your boat in B.C. --- well, don't bother. Go to Steveston. Or ANYWHERE else. They don't even follow their posted hours, often leaving "will be back whenever the h-- we want" signs on the door, which they do not honor either!

Bad experience. It is late April 2015 and I am handed a 2015 price list for a 11 foot VST Oceanus inflatable. I am told this boat is new. I buy this boat only to discover afterwards that it is not a 2015 boat but a 2014 boat. More research reveals that the 40 hp Yamaha motor is also a 2014 model. Digging deeper I find that my boat was manufactured in Columbia and that the Colombian authorities authorized the release of this MY boat to KITS INFLATABLE on January 8th, 2014 - some 15 plus months before I bought it. Clearly in my mind my boat had been sitting on Kits Inflatable's floor for

Unfortunately, I can't comment on the customer service at Kits Inflatable Boats because on the day I went there fully intending to buy an inflatable / motor combination, there was no customer service - just two employees (too) busy with the task of moving boats around to help or even acknowledge a customer.
I waited ten minutes then left. Interesting business model.....

One star for allowing me to get some competitive prices that I can use to buy my inflatable.
