Travis Marine in
Knoxville (TN)

I loved the openness of browsing after hours :3 having a one year old and a dog that acts like a one year old there aren't many places we can go where we don't stand out like the disaster train we are. This was one of em. A new favorite, with lots of birds of prey.❤️❤️

What a pleasure it was working with Donnie on selecting and acquiring my new Premier TriToon. This boat has exceeded my expectation on quality and workmanship. Donnie answered all my questions, provided valuable feedback, and made the deal come to reality. Thanks Donnie! I’m looking for many great years on the lake. Mike Higgins

From the initial contact thru picking up our boat the service was outstanding! Donnie was our salesman and was great to work with. Communication was exceptional, getting us all the information we asked for. Definitely recommend Travis Marine for your next boat. God Bless, Sam and Amy

During our recent Relocation from Colorado to East TN, Donnie has been patient, knowledgeable, thorough, responsive & friendly. Our 2022 Cobalt R6 Surf is beyond our expectations and we look forward to many years of enjoyment on Tellico Lake! We highly recommend Travis Marine!

I have to give a shout out to Donnie at Travis Marine. I recently had to sell my boat quickly due to health reasons and called Travis Marine to see if they might be interested. . Although Travis Marine didn’t deal in my type of boat ,Donnie went out of his way to arrange the sale of my boat with someone he knew that was interested. He didn’t have to do that and it shows what kind of people work at Travis Marine. It was an stress free experience and Donnie took care of everything. All I had to do was drop the boat off. If you are considering a Marina in the Knoxville Tennessee area, I don’t think you could go wrong with Travis Marine.

We have been Cobalt owners since 2000. We have purchased them all thru different dealers. We met Donnie at the Knoxville Boat show 2021. We were looking to change from a 25ft open bow to the R6 surf. Donnie assured us we would love it. We picked it up last week. We have been thrilled with the whole process. Communication was great!! He sat and talked with us on all the details. We Highly recommend Travis Marine and Donnie. Kim at the front desk was awesome. Best Cobalt experience we have had.

Donnie at Travis Marine, Knoxville was very helpful in selecting our 2022 Premier Solaris 230. He answered all our questions, provided a thorough orientation and helped deliver the boat too. Thank you Donnie!

Just purchased a used Cobalt from Donnie of Travis Marine. The entire buying process was informative, professional, and fun! This is a first class family run business. I highly recommend them to others.

A new Cobalt! We’ve been Cobalt owners since 2005 and could not be happier with our boat, but it was time to upgrade. Of course we turned to Travis Marine. Donnie was absolutely the perfect salesmen. Took his time, answered all our questions, no pressure whatsoever. We’ve been to Travis a few times in the past and always the same service, super nice people and they treat their customers like family. We are excited for our boat to be delivered and look forward to our ongoing relationship at Travis Marine!

We haven't purchased a boat in 10 years so we definitely did our homework when looking for a new tri-toon. Family operated and owned for 40+ years, Knoxville oldest and only true "on water" sales and service boat dealer, and the numerous positive reviews was truly an attraction. We decided that the best way to efficiently compare dealers/manufactures was to attend the 2020 Downtown Knoxville Boat Show. After 3 days of evaluation, Travis Marine/Premier boats emerged as the ONLY true option. As always, large purchases start and end with the sale representative and Donnie was exceptional. Given the current pandemic situation and manufacturing, he was extremely candid and transparent concerning the timing of our boat. We had some very small issue, which Donnie and Dave (General Manager) addressed quickly and stressed their emphasis on customer service. If you are looking for a boat and haven't considered Travis Marine, you are doing yourself an injustice.

A mutual friend connected me with Donnie at Travis Marine as she knew we were looking to go up a size on a new (to us) boat and I couldn’t be more grateful. Donnie made the process completely seamless and was even able to connect us with a lending broker who got us closing documents THE SAME DAY. We test drove the boat on a Thursday and took her home on Friday. He was friendly and professional, along with everyone else at Travis Marine. While we are hoping to stay in this boat for many years, I would wholeheartedly recommend anyone contact Donnie in this crazy market where everything sells so quickly.

One of the best dealerships I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Our new Premier Grand Majestic 230 Tri-toon was delivered earlier than expected and this boat is second to none! Donnie Drawdy was incredible helping build this boat and delivering it to our slip at Norris Lake. Wonderful experience!

We had a wonderful experience buying our new Premier tri-toon from Travis Marine. Our salesman, Donnie Drawdy, was excellent. He was with us all the way from ordering to delivery. Thank you Donnie....

I bought a 2021 22ft Premier Tritoon with a 150hp Honda outboard recently. Salesman's name was Donnie Drawdy who took excellent care of my wife and I from the onset to final delivery and test ride. He was extremely knowledgeable and had a super customer-oriented attitude. I have had the boat for over a month now and everything is working perfectly. I highly recommend both Travis Marine and Donnie when it comes to purchasing a new boat!

We had a great visit looking at boats with Donnie. He took his time working with us and explaining what it would be like to be part of the Travis Marine family. We feel great about our new boat and having them service it for us!.

I couldn't be happier with the work done at Travis Marine. Not only did my service come in less than quoted, it was also completed much sooner than anticipated. Adrian and his crew are awesome to work with. This is the place to take your boat for service or maintenance.

We just bought our very first boat and could not be more pleased! Kim at the front is superb! It was Donnie’s first day on the job and he was amazing! We will definitely be long term Travis Marine patrons (now I just have to talk my husband into the Cobalt R7 🤣)

I utilize Travis to service our 2005 Sea Ray and they are excellent. They redid the exterior looks almost new and provide annual winterizing and maintenance. They helped me find someone to redo my dock, excellent work. Thanks for your service responses.

Travis Marine has a special, hard to find family feel to every aspect of their business. From sales to service and maintenance they cannot be beat. They offer instruction and advice on all things H20....investing in a boat is no small issue...they will take care of You and your boat for all of your boating years. Go with Team Travis - they are quality people backing up quality product! The best service and prices are their signature!

Great Boat dealership, I bought my 1995 ski boat from Dave that I own and love to this day. In about 2005 my 20 year old steering cable broke out on Fort Loudon Lake. Travis first tried to coach me how to get the back to them when that didn’t work, they came out to tow me in . Thanks Travis for all the boating years the Pierce family have enjoyed!

Since the day i purchased my boat from Travis they have always been available to support my boating needs. From service to general questions it's been a great experience. I worked with Adrian over the years and can not say enough about his focus on customer service. With staff like him you can't go wrong. Great dealer and service team!

We really enjoyed working with Dave and Matt when buying our new Cobalt. They are knowledgeable about their product and fun to work with. We got a great price on our boat and a seamless delivery.

I am a new customer. I have been boating for over 30 years, including time in the Navy. I cannot say enough positive about Travis Marine. Dave and Kim have been immensely helpful. Dave's lifetime -developed knowledge made my decisions very rapid and I have great confidence that he did not steer me wrong. Kim bends over backwards to assist. I am a marketing and sales consultant and have yet to find a more customer-focused staff. Well done, Travis Marine. You will be my first go-to source.

We love our Coach pontoon we bought from Travis. They are very knowledgeable and have a great service department. They can take care of all your boating needs! We searched all over the southeast before deciding to by a boat from Dave at Travis. We have never regretted our decision!

We’ve been very satisfied customers since we built our home on the river in 2003. Over the years we bought 2 Sea Doos, 2 Cobalts, a sweet Cruiser Yacht, and just last month (bowing to the reality of grand parenthood) a new Coach Tritoon. Loved every vessel we owned. We’ve had all of our service work done at Travis as well - 16 seasons and nothing but dependable and professional sales and service from the Travis Marine staff.

We have been customers of Travis Marine since 1993. Obviously we keep coming back!! There are many reasons. They are responsive and courteous! We trust them. They have sold us our last two boats and serviced three boats for us, always with excellent service. When we needed a new boat last summer, we went straight to Travis and are once again thrilled with the professional help and were touched by their genuine interest in our family and helping us find the right boat to match our needs. They care about people and boating. They are one more reason we love Knoxville and its community!

I use Travis Marine for all my boat service needs. Very experienced and friendly staff. I have always been pleased with their prices and workmanship. I have had some immediate service needs and they were helpful in addressing them. Definitely recommend their business!
