Is a 300-hour service different from a 100-hour service?
Not here. Manufacturers add parts at the bigger marks; we only do the complete service, so the 300-hour parts are in ours every time. If your engine's schedule adds an item at 500 or 1,000 hours, it's quoted with the kit before we come.
Do you service Yamaha, Mercury and Suzuki?
Yes — Yamaha F70 through F350 and the SHO engines, Mercury FourStroke, Verado, V6, V8, V10 and Racing, and the Suzuki DF range. Manufacturer parts, matched to your serial number.
Is the impeller included?
Yes. The water-pump kit, the thermostat and every part on the list are inside the price. Nothing gets added at the dock.
Why the serial number?
Labor is the same on every engine; the parts kit is not. The serial tells us the exact kit, so the quote is exact. A photo of the plate works.
What does it cost?
One price per engine, parts included, in writing before we come. The serial number sets it. No ranges, no add-ons at the dock. Sales tax is its own line at your county's rate.
Where do you do the service?
At the boat — home dock, lift, marina, driveway or storage lot, anywhere in Southwest Florida. If the boat can't be serviced where it sits, we have a location where we can do the work and return the boat safely.
Twins, triples, quads?
Per engine. Send each serial number and the quote covers all of them.
I only ran the boat 40 hours this year. Do I still need it?
Yes. In this climate time matters as much as hours: oil breaks down, gear oil takes on moisture, and impellers take a set from sitting. Once a year is the minimum.
How long does it take?
Usually one visit. We book the next service before we leave so it never gets skipped.
Something's wrong and you just need it looked at?
That's a diagnostic visit: $250 regular hours, $295 after hours, Sundays and holidays. We find the actual cause and quote parts and labor before any work starts.
