Boat Lighting and Electronics Installation Services We Offer

Boat Lighting Installation Services

1. LED Boat Lighting

LED lights are energy-efficient, long-lasting, and provide a wide range of functional and aesthetic benefits on the water. They are ideal for a variety of lighting needs on boats.

  • Underwater LED Lights:
    • Underwater lighting adds a dramatic look to your boat while improving visibility when navigating at night. It can also attract fish, making it ideal for night fishing. We install multi-color LED lights that are durable, water-resistant, and energy-efficient.  
  • Deck and Cockpit LED Lighting:
    • Custom LED lighting for your boat’s deck, cockpit, and helm area. These lights enhance the look of your boat and improve safety by ensuring that key areas like the deck, stairs, and seating areas are illuminated.
  • Cabin and Interior LED Lighting:
    • Install LED lights throughout the cabin, storage areas, and head. This provides low-energy illumination, making it easier to move around the boat during the night or in low-light conditions.
  • Accent and Ambient Lighting:
    • For a more personalized touch, we offer accent lighting for areas like the console, cup holders, or under-seating areas. This adds both ambiance and visual appeal to your boat.
  • Navigation and Courtesy Lights:
    • Proper navigation lights are crucial for visibility and safety on the water at night. We install high-quality, marine-grade navigation lights (red/green, white) to help you stay visible while complying with safety regulations. We also offer courtesy lights for gangways, transoms, and entry points to help you safely board or disembark in the dark.

2. Docking and Spotlights

Docking lights and spotlight systems make nighttime docking and navigation much safer.

  • Docking Lights:
    • These lights are mounted on the bow or the stern to illuminate the dock and surroundings, helping boaters safely approach and dock at night.
  • Marine Spotlights:
    • Install powerful spotlights to improve visibility when navigating in low-light conditions or when searching for obstacles or other vessels.

Boat Electronics Installation Services

1. Marine Audio System Installation

Upgrading your boat’s audio system allows you to enjoy music, podcasts, or radio while cruising on the water.

  • Marine Stereos & Head Units:
    • We offer the installation of top-of-the-line marine-grade stereos that are weatherproof and designed for marine environments. You can choose from Bluetooth-compatible units, touchscreen systems, or more traditional models.
  • Marine Speakers and Amplifiers:
    • Our expert installation includes premium waterproof marine speakers and high-powered amplifiers that deliver clear, crisp sound while resisting water, salt, and UV damage. You can choose to add tower speakers for wakeboard boats or subwoofers for a deep bass experience.
  • Bluetooth and Wireless Integration:
    • We can integrate Bluetooth into your boat’s audio system, allowing you to stream music directly from your phone, tablet, or other Bluetooth-enabled devices.

2. GPS and Navigation System Installation

Having a reliable GPS system is crucial for navigating unfamiliar waters safely, especially in areas with complex channels or varying water depths.

  • Marine GPS Units:
    • We install state-of-the-art GPS units and chartplotters that offer accurate navigation, depth readings, and real-time mapping. These systems allow boaters to easily follow pre-programmed routes and avoid underwater hazards.
  • Fish Finder and Sonar Systems:
    • For anglers, adding a fish finder or sonar system is a game-changer. These systems help detect fish, measure water depth, and provide detailed underwater views. We can install top-rated systems from brands like Lowrance, Garmin, and Simrad.
  • Radar System Installation:
    • Radar systems help detect objects, weather patterns, and other vessels, especially in low-visibility conditions like fog or at night. We provide professional radar installation for safety-conscious boat owners, especially those who frequently navigate open water.

3. VHF Marine Radio Installation

Communication on the water is crucial, and a marine VHF radio allows boaters to stay in contact with marinas, other boats, or emergency services.

  • Fixed and Handheld VHF Radios:
    • We install fixed VHF radios with DSC (Digital Selective Calling) for quick emergency communication, or handheld radios for flexibility and portability. These radios are designed to withstand the harsh marine environment and are perfect for both day-to-day use and emergency situations.
  • AIS (Automatic Identification System):
    • AIS provides information on nearby vessels, helping avoid collisions and ensuring that you have accurate data about other boats in your vicinity. We can install and integrate AIS with your GPS or chartplotter.

4. Battery and Power Management Systems

Ensuring that your boat’s power system is in top condition is critical to keeping your electronics and accessories running smoothly.

  • Marine Battery Systems:
    • We install and maintain dual battery systems, ensuring your boat’s main power and accessory systems are separated to avoid draining the main battery. This is ideal for boats with large electronics like GPS, radios, and audio systems.
  • Battery Monitoring Systems:
    • Install advanced monitoring systems that provide real-time information about the state of your boat’s battery, helping you avoid dead batteries when you least expect it.
  • Onboard Chargers and Solar Panels:
    • We can integrate onboard chargers and solar panels that keep your batteries topped off while your boat is at dock or during storage, helping you avoid power shortages during trips

5. Boat Safety Systems Installation

Safety is a top priority on the water, and there are several electronics and systems you can install to ensure that your boat is equipped for emergencies.

  • EPIRB (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon):
    • An EPIRB is a crucial piece of safety equipment that sends out a distress signal in case of an emergency. We can install and configure these devices to ensure that you are always prepared.
  • Carbon Monoxide Detectors:
    • Install carbon monoxide detectors in the cabin and engine compartments to alert you of dangerous levels of CO that could accumulate due to engine exhaust or cooking appliances.
  • Fire Detection Systems:
    • We install fire detectors and alarms to keep your boat safe from potential fire hazards, especially in engine rooms or areas with fuel storage.

6. Fish Finder, Depth Sounder, and Weather Monitoring

For avid anglers and those who navigate in varying water depths, installing a fish finder, depth sounder, or weather monitoring system is invaluable.

  • Fish Finder Systems:
    • We install sonar-based fish finders that help locate fish and map the ocean or lake floor, giving you the information you need to enhance your fishing experience.
  • Weather Monitoring Systems:
    • Install weather stations on your boat to receive real-time updates on temperature, wind, humidity, and barometric pressure. This helps you track changing conditions and adjust your plans accordingly.
