I must say i was taken by complete surprise when I purchased this 26ft Salt Shaker boat from Corriere Outboards in Miami Beach. Hugo Corriere is the owner and I left my boat with him to get fixed up since almost everything on the boat was broken when i took it . After one full month of Hugo Corriere from Corriere Outboards dodging my calls i decided to go down to his junkyard marina at
3000 NW 54th St
Miami, FL 33142-2830



I find that he has stolen my brand new Mirage Stainless Steel Props and replaced them with complete garbage aluminum propellers thinking I wouldn't see. He gave me this BS excuse that those brand new Mirage Propellers where too big for my Merc 225 engine so he replaced them with these piece of trash beet up old aluminum props. My depth finder was also stolen off the boat while it was there and my tailor had 2 flat tires. I literally asked him if he's even done anything to the boat and he said he did all kinds of things. I didn't so one thing replaced that was supposed to be fixed. Then the story gets better. I give up and start pulling the boat out of sorry excuse for a marine repair shop and all of the sudden one of my wheels rips off the trailer and starts rolling down the street. Thankfully there was no one next to me and I was close enough to get to the boat ramp to get the boat in the water.


Now the fun really begins. Hugo Corriere told me that he fixed every single switch, light, both engines, throttle cables, ect on the boat and even took it for a test drive. What he failed to notice is that I put a hidden tie wrap on the trailer so I knew if he took the boat for a test ride, which he didnt. Still I gave him the benefit of the doubt and dropped the boat in at 79th st in miami and started my voyage out to Haulover inlet. It was just getting dark so I decided to turn on the Nav Lights and the Anchor Lights and guess what, neither worked. I then tried to turn on the spreaders so I can have some kind of light on the boat and I got that working. I started offshore for about 10 minutes heading north and all of the sudden my starboard engine failed so I put both engines back to neutral and tried to start it back up but couldnt get it started for nothing. There was gas pouring out of one of the gas lines and the engine was getting flooded. Mind You Hugo Corriere had my boat for over a month and was supposed to fix all of this.


After 20 minutes of sitting offshore without getting the engine started I started getting very nervous being offshore with this boat so I tilted that engine up and continued my voyage north on the port side engine at 2500 RPM... Then the fun really began, I'm just at a cruising speed at about 9 knots so i don't put too much pressure on the one engine and boooooom. Rpms go flying over 5000 RPM. You know what that means..... SPUN prop!!!!!!! At this point im at the water tower in Hallandale beach and my port is Boca Inlet. I tried to call Hugo Corriere from Corriere Ourboards and not only wouldn't he pickup my call but after I called 10 times in a row he shut his phone off. So now im offshore with no lights except the spreader, one non working engine, and one engine with a spun prop. I was able to maneuver the boat with one engine at 1500 rpm which took i don't even know how many hours.... The point of my story is that I just have to get the word out there so this guy can't scam you too.  I am filing a lawsuit with him and I have already filed a police report. I had to spend over 13,000.00 just to fix what this guy did to the boat to make a quick sale. Scamming people in south florida is a serious crime and he will get whats coming to him. He put me and my wife's lives in danger as well as innocent bi standards that where around me.
