Bock Marine
Consummate ripoff artist

Mr. Ken Bock is the owner operator of a longstanding marine storage and marine repair facility in Beaufort NC.
As someone who has used marinas and boatyard services for more than 30 years, I was appalled by the blatant and outrageous billing by Mr. Bock during the period my vessel was stored in his yard.
While the yard help were polite and attentive, Mr. Bock would bill for "breathing" in his facility.
To illustrate, I had a small crate containing parts delivered by UPS during my absence.
Mr. Bock then charged $50 for simply taking the crate off the truck and placing it near my boat.
He later moved another boat into the adjacent space and claimed he had to move the crate, again charging another $50.
AS he charges storage by the length of the vessel, as do most yards, he measured with a tape after hauling and declared that my anchor and rubberv dinghy on the stern added yet another five feet.
Even after explaining that I would remove my anchor and dinghy, he refused to alter his charges, especially as the yard is huge and no overhangs intruded anywhere.
The bathrooms and showers were unfit for any human habitation... Simply filthy all of the time with bad plumbing and roaches.
Mr. Bock is the consummate, greedy yard owner. Do not patronize this business!
