If you’re looking for an honest, reliable marine mechanic in the Tampa Bay area, I can personally recommend Marine Mobile Services. Joaquin came out to my lift to repair our Seastar hydraulic steering, and the experience was outstanding from start to finish.

With 12 years experience at some of the larger dealerships Jaoquin decided it was time to launch his own business, www.marinemobileservices.com, so he could provide the same quality of service, at far more reasonable prices and do the work on your own dock or lift.

Before calling Marine Mobile Services, I received quotes ranging from $800 to over $2,000 for the exact same repair. Joaquin completed the repair correctly, and efficiently, for under $500, which is a better price than you’ll find at most repair shops when taking the boat to them. In an industry where it’s easy to feel like you’re getting taken advantage of, that level of honesty and fairness is hard to find!

If you need mechanical repair, maintenance, annual service, or just someone trustworthy to look at your boat, give Joaquin at Marine Mobile Services a call (941) 999-0897. Good marine mechanics are hard to find — honest ones even harder — and this was one of the best service experiences I’ve had around boats in quite some time.

Congratulations to Team Trimmed Out, and captain Mike Hollingsworth, for their victory at the 33rd Annual Old Salts King of the Beach fishing tournament.

With the wind, rain, and rough seas there weren't too many that decided to come in by boat, and then the conditions proved challenging for photos, but we're posting what we got and hoping for better weather this fall!
