In the marine business since 1996, the Ison family knows how recreational time is best spent — out on the water. So whether customers are looking for a boat, or the parts and service they need to keep one maintained, GFLM & Auto has what they need. Open seven days a week, the business features new Crest Pontoon Boats, as well as used and consignment boat sales, and carries a full line of Hyperlite and HO wake-shop products. “We consign boats, so we can sell your boat or sell you a used boat,” Kimberly Ison said. GFLM & Auto also has a full marine-parts department, as well as an auto-parts store. There are three certified mechanics on staff to service the boats in the Ison family’s Greers Ferry Lake marinas at Damsite and Shiloh, as well as provide service work for outside clients. “We believe that people’s free time is precious and should be spent doing what they love,” Kimberly said. “We are here to make that an easier experience. We will sell you a boat, service or repair it, and sell you all the accessories you need to make your free time the best it can be on beautiful Greers Ferry Lake.”
