Marks Mobile Marine Service LLC

A Superior Marine Service who works on inboard motors and takes the time to diagnose and fix problems. I have a Sea Ray 280 with twin Mercury 4.3 motors. They started malfunctioning and would not start properly. After consultation with most of the marine mechanics in Gulf Shores, and Orange Beach, AL, I could only find one that was willing to help. At least a dozen others refused to work on inboard motors of that age altogether (e.g. Advanced Marine and several of the big name marina/service operations). The one mechanic who took the project on misdiagnosed the issues horribly, said the engines were completely blown, and I needed a complete re-power. After months of frustration and eventually consulting with my insurance company, Progressive, they recommended Mark's Marine because he was great at troubleshooting and finding the real problem(s) a motor was having rather than just writing them off. Sure enough, Mark's Marine was quick to diagnose two minor issues that were preventing normal operation. He quickly had the motors up and running like new. I wish there was a mechanic/repair shop in Gulf Shores/Orange Beach with the knowledge, thoroughness and pride in their work that Mark's Marine has. Even though Mark's Marine is 90 miles outside of Gulf Shores, they are my new go-to for any and all boat issues. I cannot thank them enough for taking the time and care for my boat in getting it back to normal operation. If you are looking for a trustworthy mechanic who will take the time to find the real problem causing issues with your boat, call Mark's Marine.
