Boat Engine Repairs And Restoration Services In The Pacific Northwest
Some of the most experienced mechanics for boat drives or engines in the Pacific Northwest repair, restore and repower vintage and classic wood power boats, drives and engines in Coeur d’Alene and Post Falls, Idaho. The Lake Coeur d’Alene region of North Idaho offers boat enthusiasts opportunities to restore or purchase wood boats including classics, antiques and vintage models. The Hagadone Marine Group (Coeur d’Alene) has a custom boat building and repair facility in Post Falls. Rebuilding and restoring classic wood powered boats, speedboats, cruisers, yachts and other watercraft requires the expertise of restoration specialists and experienced boat engine mechanics. The Resort Boat Shop provides expert mechanics for repairing new or old powered wooden boats and classic models, or even one-of-a-kind, custom boats.
Experts At Restoring Antique, Vintage And Classic Wooden Power Boats
The Resort Boat Shop’s staff is dedicated to restoring classic boats; this includes wood powered boats of all types. Our staff repairs vintage engines, custom-builds new boats with sails or new engines, and we can repower, overhaul or replace engines for vintage and classic boats, particularly speedboats, cruisers and runabouts.
Our expert mechanics have worked on a wide variety of engines, electronics and power systems. We also have the service of two Master Boat Builders with support personnel for complete boat restoration projects. Our basic engine repairs, overhauls or parts replacements include:
• Repairing or overhauling engines for new and vintage or classic boats
• Repowering boat engines and drives
• Repairing and completely overhauling and replacing engines or direct drives for boats on a case by case basis
• Repairing, complete rebuilding or installation sterndrive systems and components
• Repairing, overhauling or replacing components of V-drives as required, or complete V-drive replacement
• Repairing, replacing or upgrading vintage and classic boat electrical systems
• Upgrading boat navigation equipment and electronics systems
Our lead mechanics are fully trained for work on specific engine brands. Each has worked on many different manufacturer’s systems including Volvo Penta, Mercruiser, and Cobalt engine/drive systems. However, for older drives and their electrical systems repairing or replacing engines is, really on a case-by-case basis and per the wishes of the boat owners. Many repairs on older, vintage or classic wood powered boats depend upon the owner’s wishes, custom or OEM parts availability, or may require a complete engine replacement.
The level of our engine repairs, repowers or replacement services depend on how a customer wishes to restore a vintage wooden boat.
