About the Role
We are looking for a motivated and hands-on Marine Mechanic Technician to join our growing team. In this role, you will play a key part in maintaining, preparing, and servicing recreational and commercial watercraft.

Rigging & Boat Setup Preparation - Assist with the full rigging and pre-launch setup of boats, including mounting hardware, installing accessories, routing cables and controls, and verifying all systems are properly configured before a vessel hits the water.
Engine Tune-Ups & Carburetor Cleaning - Perform engine tune-ups including spark plug replacement, fuel filter servicing, and timing adjustments. Disassemble, clean, and rebuild carburetors to restore proper fuel delivery and optimize engine performance.
