Frequently asked questions

How much does yacht engine repair typically cost?

Hourly labor at a qualified marine engine shop typically runs $120–$200 in the U.S., with parts billed separately. A simple impeller replacement might be $250–$400 all in; a full diesel rebuild can be $5,000–$25,000+ depending on engine size.

Should I take my outboard to a dealer or an independent shop?

Dealers carry warranty work and have direct manufacturer training; independents are often faster and cheaper for out-of-warranty engines. For brand-specific issues (electronic injection, propulsion control), dealers tend to be the safer bet.

How often should I service my yacht's engine?

Most marine engine manufacturers recommend service every 100 operating hours or annually, whichever comes first. Saltwater use shortens intervals — many full-time cruisers do 50-hour intervals.
