Cover Story: Empowering reasons this season to re-power

Considering an engine re-power this boating season? Gathered below are several reasons to make your current considerations into calls for action – and the outboard sales and service pros at Haven Harbour Yacht Services will help you at every step along the way.

Reliability – Older motors are a constant source of service headaches, and can even leave you stuck at the dock or stranded out on the water.

Serviceability – Older motors make it difficult for their owners and servicing technicians for a variety of reasons, chief among them being the sourcing of parts.

Technology – Whether we like it or not, technology is ever-evolving. Newer features such as digital controls, power steering and auto trim make your on-the-water experience enjoyable, and your boat perform like new.

Economy – Improvements in technology and design have naturally led to better fuel economy over the years. Newer motors are often quieter and cleaner, too.

Seminar Series: Session I success

Session I of our three-part Seminar Series on boat care and maintenance topics was a success! Over 20 attendees showed to learn about various subject matter.

"The first seminar was well received, and our guest speakers were very informative and showed some new products for the year," said Service Manager Erik Lostrom. "These kinds of events are helpful in bridging relationships within the boating community and building understanding in what is involved in maintaining these vessels for a more enjoyable boating season."

Thank you John Cornette and Joe Lavelle from Pettit – as well as Mark Forsman from Derema Group – for giving helpful how-to demonstrations and complimentary product samples to our attendees.

Join us for Session II next month and Session III in March. If planning to attend, please contact host Erik Lostrom at [email protected] to be added to our guest list and to also provide session topic requests.
