Hear from Our Customers
Your boat isn’t just transportation—it’s your escape, your investment, your pride. When electronics fail at the worst possible moment, that investment feels more like a liability. You need systems installed right the first time, by people who understand both the technology and the marine environment.
Professional marine electronics installation means your GPS guides you home safely. Your fishfinder actually finds fish. Your stereo delivers clear sound without draining your battery or shorting out in salt spray.
The difference between amateur and professional installation shows up when it matters most—when you’re miles offshore and need everything to work perfectly.
We understand what Old Mastic boat owners face. The Great South Bay’s salt air, the challenging conditions off Fire Island, the need for reliable navigation through local waters—we’ve been working on boats in these conditions for years.
We’re not a general electronics shop trying to figure out marine applications. We specialize in boats because boats demand different solutions. Different wiring techniques. Different mounting considerations. Different understanding of what happens when electronics meet saltwater, vibration, and weather.
Suffolk County boaters trust us because we get it right the first time. No callbacks. No excuses. No surprises.
First, we assess your boat and understand how you use it. Fishing? Cruising? Entertainment? Each use case demands different electronics placement and integration approaches.
Next, we design a system that makes sense for your specific vessel. We consider power requirements, mounting locations, cable routing, and how different components will work together. No generic installations—everything tailored to your boat and your needs.
Installation happens with marine-grade materials and techniques that last. We use proper gauge wiring, marine-specific connectors, and mounting hardware designed for the marine environment. Every connection is sealed, every wire is secured, every component is positioned for optimal performance and longevity.
Testing ensures everything works as designed before we consider the job complete. We verify all functions, check power consumption, and make sure you understand how to operate your new systems.

Our marine electronics services cover everything from basic stereo upgrades to complex navigation system integration. We install GPS chartplotters, fishfinders, radar systems, VHF radios, and custom audio systems designed for the marine environment.
Custom wiring and electrical work ensures your new electronics have clean, reliable power. We upgrade electrical panels, install proper circuit protection, and run dedicated circuits for high-power equipment like inverters and battery chargers.
Old Mastic’s boating community demands reliability. Whether you’re heading out to the fishing grounds off Montauk or cruising the Great South Bay, your electronics need to perform flawlessly. We use marine-grade components and installation techniques that stand up to Suffolk County’s challenging marine environment.
Integration is key—your electronics should work together seamlessly. Chartplotter integration with autopilot. Audio system integration with navigation alerts. Everything connected and communicating properly.
Installation timeframes depend on system complexity and your boat’s existing electrical setup. A basic stereo system might take a day, while comprehensive navigation and electronics packages can require several days.
We provide realistic timeframes upfront and stick to them. No surprises, no endless delays. Most single-component installations like GPS units or fishfinders are completed in one day. Multi-component systems requiring custom wiring or electrical panel upgrades typically need 2-3 days.
Complex installations involving multiple displays, radar integration, and custom dashboard work can take a week. We’ll give you an accurate timeline during our initial assessment so you can plan accordingly.
We work with all major marine electronics manufacturers including Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad, Lowrance, and Humminbird. Our technicians stay current with the latest technology from these manufacturers through ongoing training and certification programs.
Brand choice depends on your specific needs, budget, and how the equipment integrates with your boat’s existing systems. We’ll recommend the best solution for your particular situation rather than pushing any single brand.
We also service and repair electronics from manufacturers we don’t typically install. If you have existing equipment that needs attention, we can usually help regardless of the brand. Our diagnostic capabilities cover most marine electronics systems.
Yes, we bring our installation services directly to your boat whether it’s at a marina, in your driveway, or hauled for winter storage. Mobile service eliminates the hassle and expense of transporting your boat to a shop.
Our mobile setup includes all necessary tools and equipment to complete professional installations on-site. We carry marine-grade wiring, connectors, mounting hardware, and testing equipment in our service vehicles.
Mobile service works well for most marine electronics installations. Complex jobs requiring specialized fabrication or extensive electrical panel work might need to be completed at our shop, but we’ll discuss options during our initial assessment.
Proper installation technique is everything in the marine environment. We use marine-grade components designed to withstand salt air, moisture, vibration, and temperature extremes that would destroy automotive or household electronics.
Every connection gets sealed with marine-specific heat shrink tubing and dielectric grease. Wiring is secured every 18 inches and routed away from heat sources and sharp edges. Circuit protection is sized correctly and installed at appropriate locations.
We follow ABYC electrical standards and NMEA installation guidelines. These aren’t suggestions—they’re proven methods that prevent the failures you see with amateur installations. Our work is backed by warranty because we’re confident in our installation methods.
Integration is one of our specialties. Modern marine electronics are designed to share data and work together, but only when properly networked and configured. We can connect your new chartplotter to existing autopilot, radar, and engine monitoring systems.
NMEA 2000 networking allows different manufacturers’ equipment to communicate and share information. Your GPS can send position data to your autopilot. Your fishfinder can display on your chartplotter screen. Your engine data can appear on navigation displays.
We assess your existing systems first to determine integration possibilities. Sometimes older equipment needs updating or replacement to work with modern systems. We’ll explain your options and recommend the most cost-effective approach to get everything working together.
Our installation work is warranted for one year against defects in workmanship. This covers our wiring, mounting, and configuration work—basically everything we do to install your equipment properly.
Equipment warranties come from the manufacturer and vary by brand and product type. Most marine electronics carry 2-3 year manufacturer warranties. We handle warranty claims and coordinate with manufacturers when covered issues arise.
Our warranty doesn’t cover damage from accidents, improper use, or modifications made by others. It does cover our installation work failing due to poor workmanship or materials. We stand behind our work because we do it right the first time.
