Well my dad tried to get his boat fixed and services here. The older two stroke 25 horse Mercury outboard was smoking profusely and was dumping fuel. He also had the wheel bearings on the trailer serviced. After he got it back the motor was smoking just as bad if not worst than before, and now the freshly serviced wheel bearings were throwing large amounts of bearing grease all over the side of the boat and trailer. The problem with the motor after my dad started to finely inspect it was that the bowl on the carb had completely fallen off. The guy said he adjusted it and obviously didn't even turn the motor over to see if he addressed the problem. This happens when you employ a solution without even attempting to diagnose a problem.Now for the trailer... Whoever serviced it not only didn't use marine grease, (absolute cardinal sin on anything that goes near water!) but the seals they used on both sides didn't even fit. I am no mechanical genius but this is egregious. I wish I would have been there when my dad took it back to confront them. I would have found out specifically who didn't do there job and then told them how to do it! Do not waste your money here unless you don't care if your stuff works or not. Find a bum that used to be mechanic before you go here!

As a long time boater and small charter boat operator I cannot say enough good things about Portland Marine Electronics. They are always fast and reliable for repairs. I had a Garmin unit go out the week before a new fishing season and they were able to quickly troubleshoot and replace my unit. They know their stuff. When you don't have time to waste and want to work with a professional crew this is where you go. I live over 2 hours from them and don't think twice about dragging my boat there for marine electronic repairs, installation and maintenance.

I had my entire boat rigged with a 12v and 24v 3 battery system. Outboard and kicker mounted and all electronics purchased from them. They even helped me do some of my own install work. Its been almost a year now and my boat runs perfectly. I could not be happier with Portland Marine Electronics.
