About Sartin Marine: Lake Fork's Leading Boat Sales and Service Provider

Nestled in the heart of East Texas, Sartin Marine has established itself as Lake Fork’s trusted destination for boat sales, service, and participation in renowned boat tournaments. Founded by Billy Sartin and his wife, Lana, in 1984, what began as a modest repair shop has blossomed into a family-oriented business that stands as a beacon for boating enthusiasts. In 1988, recognizing the need for expansion, Sartin Marine relocated to its current spacious location. As the years rolled on, our commitment to excellence and the trust of our community fueled our growth. This led to our foray into new boat and motor sales, further solidifying our reputation in East Texas.
