Honda Specialists – All Brands Welcome

At AB Marine, we’re certified Honda Marine service providers — with factory-trained technicians and genuine parts on hand. But we don’t stop there. Our fully equipped workshop inside Cracker Bay marina drystack is set up to service all major outboard brands, including Yamaha, Mercury, Suzuki, and Evinrude, whether two-stroke or four-stroke.

If your boat’s moored in the inner harbour or launched from a local ramp, we’re here to make outboard servicing simple and stress-free.

Honda Outboard

What We Offer

  • Keep your engine reliable, fuel-efficient, and within warranty requirements. Our servicing is tailored to how and where you boat — from casual fishing in the Gulf to trips further afield.

  • Avoid launch-day surprises. We’ll check over your motor, systems and safety essentials so you’re ready for a full summer on the water.

  • Auckland waters are tough on gear — we inspect and replace impellers, check gearbox oil, and spot early signs of water ingress before it becomes a problem.

  • Tow your boat in or arrive by water — we’ll lift and service your outboard directly from the Cracker Bay Drystack for maximum convenience.

Common Issues We Fix

Outboards can be temperamental, especially after long periods of sitting idle. These are some of the most frequent problems we solve for local boaties:

✪ Hard starting, rough idle, or sudden cut-outs

✪ Overheating caused by worn impellers or cooling blockages

✪ Fuel delivery and ignition faults

✪ Gearbox issues – noise, water in oil, or shifting problems

✪ Battery not charging or electrical faults

✪ Steering that’s stiff or binding

✪ Propeller damage, vibration, or misalignment

We’ll get to the bottom of it quickly and clearly — with no guesswork and no unnecessary parts.
