Chucks love of fishing began at an early age when his Mom and Dad would take him to Hinton Dam in West Virginia. They would pack a lunch and fish all day. His Dad was always working on all kinds of electronics and small motors. Chuck was his Dad's shadow, following him around and learning all he could. Chuck went to small engine school to increase his knowledge of engine/motor repair. He and his wife, Lou Ann moved to Barren Springs, Virginia in 2007, and being close to the New River decided to open a boat motor repair shop. Since beginning he business in 2011 New River Marine, it has  continued to grow.

New River Marine prides itself in quality work, fair prices and excellent products.
