Marine Diesel Repair at DSOA

DSOA is a highly regarded Marine Diesel Generator and Engine Service shop capable of fulfilling all your repair, maintenance, and replacement needs. It is always a great idea to trust licensed trained professionals when it comes to maintaining and repairing mechanical equipment. You don’t want to be the main character in the horror story about bringing your vehicle to a backyard mechanic, swapping parts left and right, spending hours of time and money until a resolution is reached. when it comes to Marine Diesel equipment, this concept applies even more so. A car is a pretty complicated machine, but a diesel engine powered boat is an entirely different monster. Unlike cars where some basic maintenance can be performed at home and more advanced procedures at the mechanic- boats should be left strictly to the professionals. There is just too much invested in an aquatic vessel to risk having untrained hands possibly damage the machine. This is true for both the engine itself and any components or generators on board.

Throughout their lifetime, every marine diesel engine will need some maintenance and repairs. It’s good to get out ahead of this and make sure your engine is running smoothly to avoid a breakdown at sea. Breaking down on the side of the road in a car is not fun, but usually can be resolved within an hour or two via tow truck and taxi. However, a breakdown at sea can be far more dangerous, and devastating.   A breakdown mid-sea will require a costly tow back to port. Unlike towtrucks which in today’s day and age are always relatively nearby, a towing vessel may not arrive at the location for several hours. This leaves you, and your crew stranded on a vessel not operating properly at the mercy of the weather and the waves. We can all agree this is not a situation anyone wants to be in.

Besides the engine itself, many of the electronic devices and appliances on your ship are powered by a marine diesel generator.  Unlike their dry-land counterparts, these generators are built tougher to handle the additional salt and moisture exposure resulting from being at sea for several hours at a time. Also different than home generators, they require the same level of knowledge and training that Diesel Engines do in order to be properly repaired and maintained. Rather than leaving the operation of your boat, and the safety of its crew up to chance, Talk to Diesel Services Of America today to find out how you can get your vessel on a proper maintenance schedule, to ensure the longevity of your investment.
