What this covers.

Offering a complete range of premium marine navigation and entertainment electronics from leading manufacturers. Our in-house capabilities include custom fiberglass fabrication and precision CNC machining for acrylic dash panels, delivering clean, professional results tailored to your vessel.

A typical helm from us runs the displays, radar, cameras and sonar across one marine network, so every screen can show any of them. Switch panels get etched, backlit labels. The dash itself is cut in house: custom fiberglass fabrication and precision CNC machining for acrylic panels, matte or glossy, with a flush-mounted finish.

  • All major brands
  • Integration with existing electronics where applicable
  • Omni Sonar with in-house fiberglass fabrication
  • Matte or glossy acrylic panels for the look you want
How a job goes

From your first message to the water.

Tell us the boat

The make, the length and what you want done, with a photo of the helm if you have one. The quote form or the chat on this page gets it to Josh in about a minute.

Josh prices it

Every boat and every helm is different, so he prices the job after he sees the boat or your photos. Nobody quotes you a number blind, and warranty terms come with the quote.

We come to you, or the boat comes to us

Mobile service covers most of Maryland and Delaware. If the job needs the shop, slippage is available at Ferry Point Marina in Trappe, where we are based.

Questions we hear

Before you ask.

Which brands do you install?
We sell, service and install the major brands: Garmin, Simrad, Raymarine, Furuno, Lowrance, B&G and more. If you do not see yours on the brands page, ask.
Can new displays work with the electronics already on the boat?
Yes, where the equipment allows it. Integration with existing electronics is part of the job, and the network is planned so cameras, radar and sonar show on every screen.
What is a custom dash panel?
An acrylic panel cut on our CNC machine to fit your helm and your displays exactly, matte or glossy, so the screens sit flush instead of in cut-outs made by hand.
Do you need to see the boat before quoting?
Yes. Every boat and every helm is different, so Josh prices the job after he sees the boat or your photos. Nobody quotes you a number blind.
Are your technicians certified?
Our technicians are certified by both the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) and the National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA).

In their words.

I will always use Josh and his crew for my marine electronics needs. They’ve helped me out with repairs, replacement of parts and service for routine system updates for both Garmin and Simrad components.
