What Our Customers Say

4.7

Based on 6 verified service jobs

"Accumar replaced my 20-year-old Onan with a new QD 13.5 kW. The installation was flawless — new exhaust, fuel lines, and electrical. Runs quieter than the old one and powers both AC units plus the watermaker with no issues."

Captain Jim W.

45ft Hatteras • Cummins Onan QD 13.5 kW

Jan 2026

"Roland recommended Northern Lights for our trawler and we couldn't be happier. The 1800 RPM operation is noticeably quieter than our old generator. Accumar handled the entire installation including custom exhaust routing."

Dave & Karen M.

38ft Trawler • Northern Lights M773LW3 8 kW

Dec 2025

"We wanted the quietest generator possible for our sailboat. The Fischer Panda is whisper quiet — you can barely hear it running. Installation was complex but Accumar handled it professionally. Worth every penny for the silence."

Captain Steve P.

32ft Sailboat • Fischer Panda 5000i Neo

Nov 2025

"My Onan was producing low voltage and tripping breakers. Accumar diagnosed a bad generator end and rebuilt it for about $3,000 — saved me over $10,000 compared to replacement. Generator runs like new now."

Mike R.

42ft Sportfish • Cummins Onan QD 9 kW (rebuild)

Oct 2025

"Had Accumar install a Kohler 20EKD on my Viking. They handled everything — generator mounting, vibration isolation, exhaust system, fuel plumbing, and electrical integration. Professional work from start to finish."

Tom L.

50ft Viking • Kohler 20EKD

Sep 2025

"Our Westerbeke wouldn't start after sitting for a season. Accumar diagnosed fuel delivery issues, replaced the lift pump and fuel filters, and had it running in a day. Fair pricing and honest diagnosis."

Frequently Asked Questions

What size marine generator do I need for my boat?
Generator sizing depends on your total electrical load. For boats under 30 feet with basic AC and appliances, a 4-6 kW generator is typically sufficient. Boats 30-45 feet with one AC unit, watermaker, and appliances usually need 7.5-9 kW. Larger vessels 45-60+ feet with multiple AC units, watermakers, and full galley equipment may need 12-20+ kW. Accumar Marine provides free load calculations and generator sizing consultations. Call 239-323-9600.
How much does it cost to install a marine generator?
Marine generator installation costs vary by boat size and complexity. A basic installation on a boat with an existing generator compartment typically runs $2,000-$4,000 for labor. New installations requiring exhaust routing, fuel line plumbing, and electrical connections can run $4,000-$8,000+. The generator unit itself ranges from $7,000 for a small 4 kW unit to $35,000+ for a 29 kW unit. Accumar Marine provides free installation estimates. Call 239-323-9600.
Should I repair or replace my marine generator?
If your generator is under 5,000 hours and the engine block is sound, repair or rebuild is usually the most cost-effective option. A generator end rebuild costs $2,500-$4,000 compared to $12,000+ for a new unit. However, if the engine has major issues (cracked block, severe corrosion) or is over 8,000-10,000 hours, replacement may be more economical long-term. Accumar Marine can diagnose your generator and provide honest recommendations.
What brands of marine generators do you service?
Accumar Marine services all major marine generator brands including Cummins Onan, Kohler, Westerbeke, Northern Lights, Fischer Panda, Phasor Marine, and more. We carry parts for all brands and have 25+ years of experience with marine diesel and gasoline generators. We also service older and discontinued models.
How often should a marine generator be serviced?
Marine generators should be serviced every 250-500 hours or annually, whichever comes first. Service includes oil and filter change, fuel filter replacement, raw water impeller inspection, belt inspection, coolant check, and exhaust system inspection. In Southwest Florida's salt air environment, we recommend more frequent inspections of cooling systems and exhaust components. Annual service typically costs $400-$800 depending on the generator model.
What is a marine generator rebuild?
A generator rebuild involves disassembling the generator end (the electrical portion that produces power) and replacing worn components like bearings, brushes, voltage regulators, stator windings, and rotor. This restores the generator's electrical output to like-new condition at a fraction of replacement cost. Accumar Marine also performs engine overhauls including pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, and injectors when needed.
Why won't my marine generator start?
Common causes include: dead or weak starting battery, fuel delivery issues (clogged filter, air in fuel lines, bad lift pump), glow plug failure (diesel), exhaust back-pressure from blocked muffler or elbow, low oil pressure safety shutdown, overheating safety shutdown, or control board failure. Accumar Marine offers comprehensive generator diagnostics starting at $150. Call 239-323-9600.
Can you convert my boat from shore power to generator power?
Yes, Accumar Marine designs and installs complete generator systems for boats that currently rely solely on shore power. This includes generator selection and sizing, mounting and vibration isolation, exhaust system design and installation, fuel system plumbing, electrical integration with your existing panel, and automatic transfer switch installation. This is a popular upgrade for boats transitioning from coastal cruising to extended voyaging.
