THE DETAILS
Understand the engine. Restore the confidence.
Whether it's a stubborn outboard, a tired inboard or a diesel that's down on power, we diagnose the cause before we touch a wrench. You get a clear explanation and an estimate, then the repair.
We work on inboard, outboard, diesel, gas and jet ski engines, from no-start calls and rough running to full rebuilds and repowers.

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
Your questions.
What types of boat engines do you repair?
Inboard, outboard, diesel, gas and jet ski engines. Tell us the make, model and symptoms on the estimate form and we'll confirm before you book.
Should I rebuild or replace my engine?
It depends on the engine's condition, hours and parts availability. We diagnose it first and give you the options and costs for each so you can decide.
Is the diagnosis included in the repair?
Diagnostic time is quoted up front before we start. Once we know the cause, you get a separate estimate for the repair itself.
Can you repower my boat?
Yes. When a rebuild doesn't make sense, we remove the old engine and install a replacement. We'll go over the options before any work starts.
PLANNING YOUR SERVICE
Tell us how the engine behaves.
Does it struggle to start cold, lose power under load or overheat after a few minutes? Tell us when the problem happens and what changed before it began. The engine model, hours and service records help us decide what to check first.
