Suzuki Outboard Repower | Charleston SC

​

​

Before We Hang the New Motor

 

A proper repower starts before the old engine comes off. Charleston Marine evaluates the boat and existing systems before installation so potential problems can be identified before a new outboard is mounted and rigged.

• Transom condition and integrity — inspect for visible damage, flex, cracking, water intrusion concerns and mounting-area condition.

• Fuel system — inspect the fuel tank, hoses, fittings, filters and fuel delivery system for age, condition and compatibility with the new engine.

• Steering system — check hydraulic steering components, hoses, helm condition and steering capacity for the new horsepower.

• Battery system — evaluate batteries, switches, cables, connections and available electrical capacity.

• Controls and rigging — determine what controls, gauges, harnesses, key switches and existing rigging can be reused and what should be replaced.

• Engine mounting and transom height — confirm the new outboard can be mounted at the correct height and position for the hull.

• Propeller and performance setup — select an appropriate starting propeller and verify the final engine setup during testing.

• Existing wiring and connections — inspect critical wiring and grounds so old electrical problems are not carried into the new installation.

Finding these issues before installation gives us the opportunity to address them before an expensive new outboard is hanging on the transom. It also allows us to build a more accurate, itemized repower quote before the work begins.

A repower is more than simply replacing the engine. Charleston Marine can evaluate your existing controls, gauges, steering, wiring, propeller and rigging, then provide an itemized quote based on what can be reused and what should be replaced.

Our goal is to give you a properly matched Suzuki package that performs the way your boat should, with the installation and supporting systems addressed as part of the complete repower.
