Found a boat?

Not sure what to look for...we do!  Let us help you make a good purchase. Mechanical surveys can tell you what kind of potential problems you may have.

Mechanical Inspection 

Boats are a lot of money.  If it's a used boat then you need to know up front, and in writing, the mechanical condition.  This is a crucial step in representing the buyer.  Realistically, we are talking about a used boat but that doesn't mean a repair bill, due to neglect, instead of maintenance costs.

If you opt for a new boat you can skip the mechanical inspection as the factory warranty will be active.

 

Already own a boat?

Assessment, performance, fuel economy

Understanding propulsion principals.  WOT (wide open throttle) rpm range, propping and installation are extremely important to fuel economy as well engine longevity.  Owners rely on the boat manufacturer, the dealer or the previous owner to have done it properly.  A boat built  25 years ago can benefit with newer products that are available to prevent some large repair bills.  The building practices and materials of today's boats can be used to improve on older systems needing replacement.  A much wider variety of props, steering systems, fuel valves/fittings, ventilation motors, shore power units, etc. are available now.

Repair, work estimates and recommendations

Having an assessment done by an impartial service specialist can save you money.  Knowledge is key and having insight into your repairs keeps it manageable.

Should I re-power and with what?

I really like my boat but the repair costs are killing me.  I can't sell this thing because it doesn't work.  Whatever the reason, there is a time to consider a re-power.  It may be diesel or gasoline and how much will the installation cost?  We can look into your options.

Should I sell it?

There comes a time when you may need to consider the cost of owning a boat.  An evaluation can look down the road a little further and see potential problems.
