  • We bought our (new to us) boat from the team at Clipper in Swanwick. Ben and Steve couldn’t have been more helpful and thorough if they had tried. All the jobs identified on survey were done to a great standard and at a fair price. We took delivery of her yesterday, 2 days early, so have the weekend to get used to her and move our belongings on ready to sail away. Fantastic service from start to finish, this is our 8th boat and I cant recommend the team highly enough!!!

    Well done Clipper and thanks again to Ben and Steve for making it so easy!

How Often Do You Service a Boat? 

The frequency of boat servicing depends on several factors, including the type of boat, the frequency of use, and the conditions it operates in. Generally, we would recommend servicing your boat at least once a year, regardless of usage, to ensure that it is in good condition. 

For boats that are used more frequently, or in harsher conditions, more frequent servicing may be necessary. By servicing your boat regularly, you can ensure that it operates reliably and efficiently, reducing the risk of breakdowns and an expensive boat repair.

Why is Boat Servicing Important?

Boat servicing is important for several reasons. Regular servicing can help prevent costly electrical marine repairs and replacements, ensure the safety of the vessel and its crew, and extend the lifespan of marine equipment. It can also improve the efficiency of marine equipment, reducing fuel consumption and operating costs.

What Does a Boat Service Typically Include?

A boat service typically includes a range of maintenance tasks, such as oil changes, filter replacements, and inspections of the boat’s electrical and mechanical systems. The specific tasks performed during a boat service will depend on the type of boat and our manufacturer’s recommended servicing schedule.

Can Boat Owners Perform Their Own Servicing?

Boat owners can perform some basic maintenance tasks, such as changing the oil and filters, but it is recommended to have a team of high quality workmanship such as our specialist team at Clipper Marine perform more complex tasks. Our team of experienced professionals will have the expertise and tools necessary to properly maintain and repair marine equipment.
