Boat Repair in Lakewood Ranch, FL

Lakewood Ranch has more boaters than most people think. Some keep a Jon boat or bass boat for Lake Manatee and the neighborhood lakes. Others trailer a bay boat or center console to the Manatee River ramps and run out to Tampa Bay and the Gulf. Whatever you run, McKeever's Marine can keep it on the water. Our shop is at 3232 26th Ave E in Bradenton, about a 20 to 25 minute drive west on SR-64 or University Parkway and I-75.

Instead of sending your boat to one place for the motor and another for the wiring, our technicians handle it all under one roof:

• Outboard diagnostics, service and repair (Yamaha, Honda, Tohatsu, Suzuki and Mercury)
• Full rewires, switch panels, batteries and Garmin, Raymarine and Simrad installs
• Fiberglass and gelcoat repair, full repaints and bottom painting
• Custom CNC dash panels
• Marine Mat EVA decking, scanned and cut in-house

A boat that lives on Lake Manatee faces different problems than one that runs the river and bay. Lake boats often sit for weeks, so we see old fuel, weak batteries and corroded connections. Saltwater boats need more cooling system and corrosion care. Tell us how you use your boat and we'll check the things that matter most for it.

Many Lakewood Ranch owners bring their boat in before the busy spring and summer months and again before hurricane season. A service visit catches small problems before they cost you a weekend on the water.

Do I need to bring my boat to Bradenton? Yes. All work is done at our shop at 3232 26th Ave E, Unit D, in Bradenton.

How long will my repair take? It depends on the job and how busy the shop is. We'll give you a clear diagnosis and quote before any work starts, plus an honest time estimate.

Can you work on a small lake boat? Yes. We work on everything from small skiffs and jon boats to larger center consoles.

Call or text 941-718-5572 with your boat's make, model and year, plus a few photos or a short description of what's wrong. You can also email mckeeversmarine@gmail.com.
