Comprehensive Maintenance and Repair Services

Diagnostics and Repair

Diagnostics and Repair is a comprehensive service aimed at identifying and addressing any issues that your boat may be experiencing. Using state-of-the-art diagnostic tools, our trained technicians will thoroughly inspect your vessel to pinpoint the root cause of any mechanical, electrical, or structural problems. Once identified, we provide expert repair services to restore your boat to optimal condition, ensuring safety and peak performance on the water.

Full-Service Engine Repair

Full-Service Engine Repair covers all aspects of care for your boat’s engine, from minor fixes to major overhauls. Our skilled mechanics are proficient in servicing a wide range of marine engines, including inboard, outboard, and stern drive units. Services under this umbrella can include repair or replacement of engine components, troubleshooting performance issues, and complete engine rebuilds. We aim to maximize your engine’s efficiency, reliability, and lifespan.

Scheduled Service Tune-Ups

Scheduled Service Tune-Ups are routine maintenance check-ups designed to keep your boat performing at its best. These service appointments typically include an oil change, filter replacement, spark plug inspection, and an overall check of the boat’s operating systems. Regular tune-ups help to prevent unexpected breakdowns, improve fuel efficiency, and ensure that your boat is always ready for its next voyage.

Fuel System Repair and Cleaning

Fuel System Repair and Cleaning ensures that your boat’s fuel system is free from contaminants and operating efficiently. Over time, water, dirt, and other impurities can accumulate within the fuel system, leading to performance issues and potential damage. Our technicians will thoroughly inspect, clean, and, if necessary, repair components such as fuel lines, tanks, and filters to prevent blockages and maintain smooth operation.

Generator Service

Generator Service addresses the maintenance and repair needs of your boat’s auxiliary power unit. Whether your generator powers essential onboard systems or ensures comfort with modern conveniences, it’s crucial that it operates reliably. Our services include routine inspections, oil and filter changes, load testing, and troubleshooting to ensure that your generator functions perfectly whenever you need it.

Injector Cleaning

Injector Cleaning is vital for maintaining the performance and efficiency of your boat’s engine. Fuel injectors can become clogged or fouled over time, leading to poor fuel atomization, decreased efficiency, and increased emissions. Our professional cleaning service involves removing the injectors, cleaning them with specialized equipment, and testing their performance to ensure that your engine runs smoothly and efficiently.

Winterizing and Summerizing

Winterizing and Summerizing services prepare your boat for the off-season and ensure it’s ready for use at the start of each new season. Winterizing involves protecting your boat from the cold by draining fluids, adding antifreeze, and protecting systems from moisture damage. Summerizing, on the other hand, gets your boat ready for the warm season by conducting a thorough inspection, testing all systems, and ensuring that everything is in top working order. These seasonal services are crucial for preserving your boat’s longevity and performance year-round.
