Meet the Mechanic!

Andrew started his apprenticeship straight out of high school with Sports Marine back in 1980. He has been around the industry ever since. While he has spent time during that period doing other things he's always come back to what he knows and loves... Boats & Outboards!

Our Team

Our team literally is family!

Andrew, the mechanic and owner of AC Marine loves a chat and loves to share knowledge to boat owners and the boating community!

Jodie, is the wife and Bookkeeper (with her own bookkeeping business as her 'main' job). She's the Admin behind the business supporting Andrew where ever needed to keep things running smoothly.

Echo is the workshop manager and 'door bell'. When you arrive, she excitedly welcomes you letting Andrew know you are here!

Frequently Asked Questions

No, sorry. They are a different sort of engine and not something that Andrew has done a lot of. Prefer to stick to the outboard engines

Depends on the size and brand of engine. Parts for some brands cost more than other brands. We generally prefer to use genuine parts where possible. For a more accurate idea of cost, give Andrew a call with the details of your engine.

Generally, no you don't need to book. It is preferred though, if you can drop your boat off in the morning and pick it up later in the day. This will give Andrew time to get it done without you having to stand around waiting.

Suzuki are a reliable and well know brand that prides itself on their product... check our more information here
