Boat Scene Cairns - New boats and used boats, outboards, trailers, campers, fishing and more

Do you remember the days when it was a simple and easy job to service the motor on the family car? They were uncomplicated beasts to work on, with four spark plugs and HT leads, a set of points, and filters. Everything was mechanical and anyone with a basic knowledge of how engines function could do much of the work for themselves.

Then computers came along and took over the world. The average family saloon car today has an onboard computer more sophisticated than the one used by Apollo 11 to land Neil Armstrong on the moon. Whilst this means that we now need specialist, factory trained engineers and technicians to look after our cars and engines, would anyone really want to go back to the days when vehicles weren’t so smooth, powerful or reliable?

It’s the same with marine engines. We’ve come a very long way indeed from the days of single cylinder “coffee grinder” outboards. Today’s motors bear almost no resemblance to their predecessors and their power and performance are beyond comparison. They are however, very much more complicated and require specialist, expert mechanics to maintain them. Mechanics these days need to be computer-savvy technicians too.

At Boatscene, everyone who works in the servicing department is factory trained to know these modern engines inside out. They attend all manufacturers’ workshops and seminars to keep up to date with new developments and technology. It doesn’t matter if your outboard is a Suzuki, Evinrude, Johnson, Yamaha, Honda, Tohatsu, Mariner or Mercury – they have the knowledge and the expertise to look after and repair it properly. Inboard/sterndrives by Mercruiser are covered too. They can service and maintain any boat and motor to the highest standard.

There are spacious servicing bays and mobile workshop equipment which mean that boats are serviced efficiently and quickly. They give an agreed time frame for the work, and advise the customer of exactly what needs to be done. If any unforeseen problems are revealed, they contact you and explain the situation before starting anything over and above what was requested. They also have the confidence and pride in what they do to guarantee their work. They get you back on the water quickly.

New boats are fitted out to exacting standards with an attention to detail second to none. Dedicated new boat fitout staff work with customers to choose the right options and accessories and make sure that they are all perfectly in place and functioning on delivery.

It’s a far cry from the all-too-familiar experiences most of us have had of shonky service. How many times have you booked an engine in for a routine service, only to find that it takes much longer than promised to get the work done – and the bill is twice the original estimate? Agreed time-frames, accurate estimates and clear, honest communication between the company and clients. It’s the way all servicing should be.
