Outdrive Service & Repair

Outdrive Service & Repair

At Northshore Dock and Marine, we specialize in comprehensive Outdrive Service & Repair, ensuring your boat's sterndrive system operates at peak performance. The outdrive unit, integral to propulsion and steering, requires meticulous attention to maintain your vessel's safety and efficiency. Our professional team offers the following services:

Comprehensive Inspection and Maintenance

• Gear Oil Examination and Replacement: Regular inspection and replacement of gear oil are vital to prevent internal damage. Milky oil indicates water intrusion, necessitating immediate attention. We recommend oil changes every 100 hours of operation or annually, whichever comes first.

• Bellows Inspection: Bellows protect critical components from water ingress. We examine the driveshaft, exhaust, and shift bellows for signs of wear or cracking and replace them as needed to prevent leaks and potential sinking.

• Seal Replacement: Worn or damaged seals can lead to fluid leaks and component failure. Our team replaces these seals to maintain the integrity of the outdrive unit.

• Mechanical Issue Resolution: We address any mechanical problems within the outdrive, ensuring optimal performance and extending the lifespan of your vessel.
