Highly recommend the team at RPM in Tofino. Purchased a set of V8 mercury outboards and a full simrad electronics setup this winter. Service was top notch from Kurt and Martin throughout the process. Installation was clean, well thought out, and completed in a timely manner. Communication was prompt throughout which is of the utmost importance to me. Ah, doesn't hurt their pricing was the best on the Island. Nice work gentlemen.

I have been taking my boat to rpm for many years and have always been impressed with the knowledge and professionalism demonstrated by their staff and management. On more than a few occasions they have gotten me out of a pickle by going the extra mile. They know their products extremely well and have fixed some of my smaller engines without much difficulty. I highly recommend this company.

Recently on vacation in Tofino with my boat, I was stuck with a main outboard that had a fuel supply issue and a kicker that had a broken prop. These guys fixed it up the same day and at a very reasonable cost. Highly recommend.
