About us
Local marine mechanics who answer the phone
Marine Services looks after craft of all sizes along the Mar Menor and the coast from Torrevieja to Cartagena. We service and repair engines, fix electrical problems, recover seats, upgrade equipment, antifoul hulls, arrange lifts and storage, and come out to help when boats break down at sea.
Our approach
Customer service that goes beyond the engine bay
We pride ourselves on customer service that extends well beyond the servicing, maintenance or electrical work we do for you. Boating is a lifestyle and a passion, and we know it can be expensive, so we always look for the best solution, not the most expensive one.
That might be reconditioning a starter motor instead of replacing it, a lift-and-clean before a family holiday, or a fuel fill, exterior clean and upholstery refresh to prepare your boat for a day at sea. And when you’re in a bind out on the water, call us: we’ll calmly discuss your situation and come up with a plan.
What we believe
Four promises to every boat owner
Honest advice
Repair or recondition before replace. If something can wait until next season, we’ll tell you.
Fixed prices
A clear quote before we start, and a call before anything extra. No surprises on the invoice.
Proper records
Old parts returned, photos and a written report, so you have a service history that helps resale and insurance.
Respect for your boat
Clean hands, covered upholstery and a tidy engine bay when we leave.
Experience
Every brand, every engine type, every kind of problem
Being exposed to different brands, different engine manufacturers and a huge number of seemingly unsolvable problems gives us a “can do” attitude to solving your boating problem. We work on outboards, sterndrives and inboard diesels from Yamaha, Mercury, MerCruiser, Volvo Penta, Suzuki, Honda, Yanmar, Cummins and more, on boats from Beneteau, Jeanneau, Quicksilver, Bayliner, Sea Ray, Fairline, Rodman and many others.
Testimonials
Trusted by boat owners along the coast
“I was stranded, my inboard MerCruiser just decided not to start. I called Dave and within the hour he was with me. Problem solved and we were underway to our home port.”
Sports cruiser owner
Mar Menor
“Very happy to recommend Marine Services. Literally saved me thousands by recommending reconditioning rather than replacing my starter motor. Thank you.”
Mack

“In 30 years around boats I have experienced many good and bad mechanics. Marine Services do what they say for the price they quote. I could not ask for better.”
