About River City Sports

River City Sports is North Dakota's marine dealer of choice, proudly representing Sylvan, South Bay, Dockside, AXIS Wake Research, Malibu, Starcraft Deck Boats, Vexus, Skeeter, Crestliner, WILCRAFT, and Ice Castle. We carry the boat, pontoon, fishing boat, wake boat, or ice house to match how you actually use the water and the ice.

We are also proud to operate Misty Waters Marina and our in house River City Fiberglass and Aluminum Repair department, giving Bismarck boat owners a true one stop relationship for sales, storage, service, and repair, all under one roof.

Buying Process

A Transparent Buying Experience

Buying a boat should not feel like a negotiation game. At River City Sports, transparency starts online. Hover any card below to see the splash effect.

01

Every unit is listed with real pricing, with no call for price requests and no hidden fees.

02

Every boat is fully photographed so you can see exactly what you are buying before you visit the lot.

03

An easy online financing application lets you get pre qualified from your couch, your phone, or our showroom.

Delivery Process

The Delivery Process

Every boat we sell is water tested twice before it reaches your driveway. First, an on water pre delivery inspection performed by the technician who rigged your boat, confirming every system operates correctly. Second, an on water customer orientation, where we walk you through every feature and function on the water rather than in a parking lot.

Warranty Service

Warranty Service That Does Not Make You Wait

At most dealerships, warranty work gets queued behind everything else, and a two, four, or even six week wait is not unusual. River City Sports takes a different approach with a dedicated warranty technician who has more than thirty five years of experience, available exclusively for our customers warranty needs.

Notify us by Monday, and in most cases you are back on the water by Friday.

Full Time Marine Service

Full Time Marine Service Not A Side Business

Our service department works on boats, period. We do not service powersports, ATVs, or side by sides. That focus means our technicians spend every hour of every day mastering marine engines, drivetrains, and rigging instead of splitting attention across unrelated equipment.

  • Mercury Marine Service CSI Award winner for more than ten consecutive years, the only dealership in North Dakota to hold that streak
  • Factory certified technicians across every major engine brand we carry
  • The most experienced, most credentialed marine service team in the state
Fiberglass And Aluminum Repair

River City Fiberglass And Aluminum Repair

Hull damage, gelcoat repair, transom work, and aluminum welding. Our dedicated River City Fiberglass and Aluminum Repair department handles it all in house, so storm damage, trailer mishaps, or years of wear do not mean shipping your boat out of state.

Misty Waters Marina

Misty Waters Marina

As the operators of Misty Waters Marina, we extend the River City Sports experience beyond the showroom, giving our customers a home base on the water for slip storage, seasonal service access, and a marina community built around the same boats we sell.
