Marine Mechanic Services
Licensed marine technicians for diagnostic, repair and seasonal service across most outboard, sterndrive and inboard platforms.
About this service
A marine mechanic is the difference between a guess and a fix. Our technicians are licensed marine technicians, factory-trained on Tohatsu, and have seen most of what goes wrong on a Grand River or Lake Erie boat.
Factory-trained Tohatsu service, plus full mechanical, electrical and fuel work on Mercury, Yamaha, Honda and Suzuki.
Same five-person crew every season. Your boat tends to see the same hands year after year.
Every repair gets logged against the hull, with photos, so the next visit is faster and cheaper.

Common questions
Are your mechanics certified?
Yes. Our technicians hold a marine small-engine repair licence (the marine equivalent of a licensed auto mechanic) and are Tohatsu factory-trained on every engine we sell and service.
Do you work on engines you don't sell?
Yes. Mercury, Yamaha, Honda and Suzuki outboards are serviced regularly here, alongside the Tohatsu work.
How do you keep service consistent year to year?
We log every job against the boat in our service records. When you come back the next spring, the tech opens your file and already knows what we touched and why.
