Built on 38+ years' experience in the marine electrical industry
Florida has over 8,000 miles of coastline and 4,500 square miles of inland waterways, making it a paradise for boaters! From mega-yachts to wooden skiffs, having a boat is as normal as having a car for some Floridians. So when they store their watercraft at a marina, they want to know the facilities are up-to-date and taken care of. That’s where we come in.

Marina Electrical Inspections
Safety is your number one concern, and it’s a value which we built our business on. We understand that watercraft can be an expensive investment, so we get how important it is to protect those investments while they’re moored within the berths at your marina. Water and electricity are incompatible, so you’ll need to frequently check the electrical system at your marina. This should include looking over the electrical components to see if there are signs of corrosion, missing components, or damage. Saltwater spray can lead to corrosion and any water may cause shorts or rust. Periodic maintenance of marina electrical systems and equipment are necessary in preventing mishaps and emergencies (should they arise). We perform marina inspections, where we will:
Examine marina electrical pedestals and services
Load test shore power receptacles
Confirm KWh meter readings
Live water and ground fault testing
Much, much more!
Marina Saftey and Regulations
Electrical shock hazards are an unfortunate part of marina operations. The availability of shore power for dockside/moored boats, coupled with the proximity to water, can spell disaster if proper safety precautions are not followed. All electrical equipment should be inspected regularly and replaced or repaired as needed. By taking these precautions, we can minimize the risk of electrical accidents and keep your marina safe.
With new NEC regulations arriving, we have the experience and dedication required to ensure your marina or shipyard is up to par with the required safety equipment in place and functioning properly. We take pride in ensuring that your critical systems can stand up to Florida’s weather and coastal conditions while allowing your customers safe use of the facility's electrical services.
Dock Lighting
Marinas need proper lighting; without it your marina could become a safety hazard for vessels coming and going and visitors navigating your docks. When lighting is inefficient or burned out, it can lead to a myriad of problems and increases the potential for hazards. These hazards can be compounded around the waterfront. Regardless of your marina’s equipment, we can help you build a safer, more functional space for guests, vessels, and yachts alike.
If you’re like our thousands of dock and marina owners around South Florida, you understand that safety is a top priority. Our Marina Electrical Services are built around effectiveness, professionalism, and most importantly, safety. We believe no marina should go without proper electrical systems and lighting; we have the expertise and experience to handle your marina wiring and dock lighting needs.
