What we work on
Outboard servicing and boat repairs around Agnes Water & 1770
From a brand-new motor's first service to an old workhorse that's lost power, we look after whatever gets you out on the water. Tinnies, half-cabins, big cruisers and jet skis all come through.
Repairs & diagnostics
Lost power or hard to start? We'll find what's actually causing it, then explain what we found and what it means for running your boat.
Water pumps & cooling
Impellers, water pump kits, thermostats and a cooling system flush, so the motor runs cool and salt doesn't build up where it shouldn't.
Inboards & sterndrives
Not pumping water through the cooling system? We'll pull the lower leg, find the culprit and replace the seals that have gone brittle.
Jet skis
Sea-Doo wear rings, propellers, batteries and servicing, including damage from a stick sucked into the jet pump.
Tilt & trim hydraulics
Tilt and trim rams repaired, and resealed when the seals have gone.
Electrical
Stators, batteries and a full electrical diagnostic scan, so it starts and charges the way it should.
Motors on the bench lately: Yamaha, Honda, Suzuki, Mercury, Sea-Doo.

Tony's tip for salty motors
“Keep flushing it out the longer the better. Set minimum 15Min and get a bucket under the leg and let it warm up to remove that salt build up.”

Bring it to the workshop, or we'll come to the ramp
Our workshop's at 252 Murphy Rd, Captain Creek. Visits are by appointment, so give us a ring before you head out.

About us
Local marine mechanics, with a mobile workshop
We're 1770 Marine Mechanic Services, and Tony's the one on the tools. With over 19 years of experience in marine mechanics behind us, we set up a mobile workshop to look after boats around Agnes Water and Seventeen Seventy.
The most used boat in Agnes Water has been back to us for its third service in three years, and it clocks 100 hours well before each yearly service is due.
And if you've towed the boat up for a fishing trip and the motor's let you down, ring us anyway and tell us when you're heading home. We'll do what we can to get you back out there.

“Very happy with Tony and his service. I was able to get an honest overview of some issues that I had with my boat after a recent purchase. Tony spent time with me explaining the issues he found and what they actually mean when running your boat. It's finally good to have an honest, very knowledgeable mechanic that I can rely on.”

“We called Tony to have our yearly boat service done on our 90hp Mercury. The engine is now running great after he had found and fixed a few issues and left the motor looking like brand new. Tony squeezed us in within the week with great customer service, and we didn't have to tow the boat anywhere. Highly recommend Tony for all your boating needs!”

“We had a boat emergency and called Tony, he was so kind and tried to help us, driving out to the boat ramp and going above and beyond. Recommend him to anyone in need of a fix or in the 1770 area. We are so grateful for his kindness and expertise.”

“Dragged this man away from another job. Was very professional in his ability. Had my motor running like new in 2 hours. Pricing is extremely fair for all that was achieved. Very honest in information. More than helpful if any further problems arising.”
