ENGINE ELECTRICAL

Engine controls, harness, charging, J-1932, NMEA 2000, Transmission sensors, alarms, engine sensors, chargers, batteries, shifters, transmissions, Computer ECM ECU programming, throttles electronic, fuel level, and safety systems, wow Thats a lot to worry about. Having the wrong person working on any of these engine elements can quickly set you back—maybe way back. Over the years, and out of necessity, our founder was forced to complete over 30 major marine engine overhaul mechanical projects. This happened because all his long-time pro machine shops, the ones he used for decades, lost their principals due to aging or unskilled help. Now years later, Greg can bring some major diesel engine experience. They dropped Greg's engine stuff right back in his lap. Sometimes after stalling for perhaps a year or more. These were "Big Name" marine engine companies, ones you know or may have heard of. These heartaches forced Greg to survive on his own if was to get his owner's boats back on the water. Greg built an unshakable inventory of confidence by rebuilding a couple dozens of big marine engines. Cummins, MTU, Man, Mercedes anmd a slew of GM large and small blocks for mercruiser. He also helped our team accumulate the correct tools for those big jobs until we found it easier and easier to complete engine overhauls ourselves. Since then, we’ve built very specialized and clean areas with a dedicated room in our boatyard to do your rebuild or help you do it. Plenty of room at our yard.
The heavy lifting and loading equipment we have helps handle huge motors up to 25 ton with C lifts. We’re equipped to install the following:
  • Turbos
  • Injection pumps
  • Exhaust
  • Plumbing
  • Drive lines
  • Engine mounts
  • Shaft corrosion prevent
  • After decades of providing service, we know the engine sector inside and out. From Ft Lauderdale to Seattle to Cabo, all boats must move. Let us be your last boats engine repair specialists. Let's talk.
DIY? We can help YOU ensure your engine work is done and dialed in correctly the first time. In our boatyard, we have the tools, heavy equipment and liability insurance to rectify any engine job that we do and stand behind 100%. We’ll teach you how to do the work yourself, or we can focus on just the electrics and electronics. There is NOT an engine shop of any size that brings wiring details together with mechanical marine engines like us. These engines wiring harnesses we make custom are better than OEM, by far better. Nothing electric or found in any software or data buss or in any engine, anywhere, intimidates us. If it's not simple, we work harder and think longer until we solve it. In the past, we also partnered with or supported:
  • Safe Harbor with Scott/Wayne
  • KOHLER Kraft with CF
  • Marine Group for Todd Roberts
  • Ari's Cabo San Lucas boatyard
  • Dominic's Ensenada yard
  • Newport beach shipyard.
  • Neilson Beaumont Tom and Don
Those are all extremely good yards that we can collaborate with to help you complete even the biggest engine work jobs. Greg's been involved with a 7000hp Allison gas turbines too. Greg Moore does all your engineering and drawings, right down to the smallest electron or he can design your engine risers and exhaust. MTU WIRING, the hardest of any engine, Easy for us.
