    I have heard nothing but great things about Knox Marine.
    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments

    I know a guy that had a set of poles installed at south shore. Wasn't a good experience.

    Knox is a long drive, but I do my business there because they are a Ranger dealer.

    I don't have any experience with South shore. But I drive 2+ hours right past them on my way to Knox.

    Had 2 experiences with South Shore from a couple years ago. Gave them 2 opportunities and wasn't happy with either. Will not go back and go elsewhere now. I've never been to Knox but like you can see a lot of guys speak highly of them.
