Hear from Our Customers
You’re not dealing with another rushed installation that fails when you’re miles offshore. Your marine electronics are installed by certified technicians who understand the stakes – because when you’re navigating Long Island Sound or heading out to Montauk, your GPS and fishfinder need to work flawlessly every time.
No more wondering if your connections will hold up in rough seas. No more dealing with audio systems that cut out when you hit a wave. Your boat’s electronics are integrated properly, wired to marine standards, and tested thoroughly before you leave the dock.
Legacy Motors and Marine brings the same precision and attention to detail to marine electronics that we apply to storing and maintaining luxury assets. We understand that your boat represents a significant investment, and every system we install reflects that understanding.
Located in Port Jefferson Station and serving Kings Park and the surrounding Long Island area, we’ve built our reputation on doing things right the first time. When you’re dealing with complex navigation systems, premium audio installations, or custom electrical work, you need technicians who understand both the technical requirements and the importance of protecting your investment.
First, we assess your boat’s current setup and discuss your specific needs – whether that’s upgrading to a new GPS chartplotter, installing a premium sound system, or integrating multiple electronics for seamless operation. We take measurements, evaluate power requirements, and plan the installation to maintain your boat’s aesthetics.
Next, we handle the technical work – running marine-grade wiring, mounting equipment securely, and making all necessary connections using proper marine electrical practices. Every wire is properly sized, every connection is sealed against moisture, and all installations meet ABYC standards.
Finally, we test everything thoroughly before you take delivery. Your GPS coordinates accurately, your fishfinder reads depth correctly, and your audio system delivers clear sound at all volume levels. We walk you through the operation of your new systems and provide ongoing support when you need it.

Our marine electronics installation covers everything from basic GPS units to complex integrated systems. We install Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad, and other premium brands, handling GPS chartplotters, fishfinders, radar systems, VHF radios, and AIS transponders with equal expertise.
For Kings Park boat owners who demand premium audio experiences, we design and install custom marine sound systems that deliver concert-quality sound whether you’re anchored in Northport Bay or cruising the Sound. Our audio installations include waterproof speakers, marine amplifiers, subwoofers, and head units that integrate with your boat’s existing systems.
Custom wiring and electrical work ensure everything operates reliably in the demanding marine environment. We understand the challenges of Long Island’s salt air and varying weather conditions, using only marine-grade components and following proper installation practices to ensure your electronics perform when you need them most.
Installation time depends on the complexity of your system and your boat’s existing setup. A basic GPS or fishfinder installation typically takes 4-6 hours, while comprehensive systems with multiple displays, radar, and audio integration can require 2-3 days.
We provide realistic timeframes upfront and keep you informed throughout the process. Unlike some installers who give vague estimates, we schedule specific appointment times and stick to them. Most importantly, we don’t rush the work – proper marine installation requires attention to detail that can’t be hurried.
For Kings Park boat owners with tight schedules, we can often work around your availability, including weekend appointments when necessary.
We’re authorized to install and service all major marine electronics brands including Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad, Furuno, Lowrance, and Humminbird. Our technicians stay current with the latest technology from these manufacturers and maintain the certifications needed for warranty work.
Whether you’re upgrading an existing Garmin system or starting fresh with a Raymarine setup, we have the expertise to integrate everything properly. We also work with premium marine audio brands like JL Audio, Wet Sounds, and Fusion for customers who want superior sound quality on the water.
The key isn’t just knowing the brands – it’s understanding how to make different manufacturers’ equipment work together seamlessly, which requires real experience with marine integration projects.
Yes, we offer mobile installation services throughout the Kings Park area and surrounding Long Island locations. Many of our customers prefer having work done at their dock or marina, especially for larger boats that are difficult to transport.
Our mobile service includes the same quality installation and testing you’d receive at a shop, with the added convenience of not having to move your boat. We bring all necessary tools and equipment to your location and can work around marina schedules and tidal considerations.
Mobile service is particularly valuable for complex installations that might require multiple days, allowing you to keep your boat in its normal slip while we complete the work. We coordinate with marina management when necessary and maintain full insurance coverage for work performed at customer locations.
Absolutely, but only when installed correctly with proper marine-grade components and techniques. The key is using equipment specifically designed for marine use and following proper installation practices that account for salt air, moisture, and temperature variations.
We use only marine-rated cables, connectors, and mounting hardware that resist corrosion. All electrical connections are properly sealed and protected, and we follow ABYC standards for marine electrical installations. This attention to detail is what separates professional marine installation from automotive or general electronics work.
Long Island’s marine environment is particularly demanding due to salt spray and humidity variations. Our installations are designed to handle these conditions, which is why we see customers whose electronics continue working reliably years after installation while others struggle with frequent failures from improper installation.
Integration is one of our specialties, and it’s often more complex than boat owners realize. Modern marine electronics can share data through NMEA networks, allowing your GPS to talk to your autopilot, your fishfinder to display on multiple screens, and your VHF radio to interface with your chartplotter.
We evaluate your existing systems first to determine what’s compatible and what might need upgrading. Sometimes a simple software update or additional interface module can connect systems that seemed incompatible. Other times, strategic upgrades to key components can unlock integration possibilities you didn’t know existed.
The goal is creating a cohesive system where information flows seamlessly between devices. Your GPS waypoints appear on your radar display, your fishfinder shows depth on your chartplotter, and everything works together as an integrated navigation and communication suite rather than separate, isolated components.
We provide comprehensive warranty coverage on both our installation work and the equipment we install. Our workmanship is guaranteed for two years, covering any issues related to wiring, mounting, or integration problems. Equipment warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from one to three years.
More importantly, we provide ongoing technical support for the systems we install. If you have questions about operation, need software updates, or experience problems, we’re available to help. Many customers call with questions months or even years after installation, and we’re always happy to provide guidance.
We also offer annual system checkups to ensure everything continues operating properly. Salt air and marine conditions can affect electronics over time, so periodic inspection and maintenance help prevent problems before they strand you on the water. This ongoing relationship is what distinguishes professional marine electronics service from simple product sales.
