Marine Generator Sales, Repair & Rebuild

Generator sizing depends on a documented electrical load profile plus voltage, frequency, starting loads, space, ventilation, cooling, exhaust, fuel, sound, and installation requirements. ACCUMAR can review the vessel and prepare a model-specific recommendation and quote. Call 239-323-9600.

Marine generator installation cost depends on vessel access, whether the work is a replacement or new installation, electrical integration, mounting, fuel, cooling, exhaust, controls, commissioning, and the selected equipment. ACCUMAR provides a written scope and quote after reviewing the project requirements.

Repair, rebuild, or replacement should be decided from model support, operating hours, load-test and electrical findings, engine and generator-end condition, corrosion, cooling and exhaust condition, parts, access, expected use, and comparative quotes. ACCUMAR documents the findings before recommending an approved scope.

ACCUMAR evaluates Cummins Onan, Kohler, Westerbeke, Northern Lights, Fischer Panda, Phasor Marine, and other compatible diesel or gasoline generator equipment. Service scope for each unit depends on the model, condition, documentation, parts support, access, and required tooling; older or discontinued models are assessed individually.

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. Call for best pricing on annual service packages.

A generator rebuild may involve disassembling the generator end and replacing approved worn components such as bearings, brushes, voltage regulators, stator windings, or rotor components. Engine work may include pistons, rings, bearings, gaskets, or injectors where supported. Measurements, parts support, labor, warranty terms, and a replacement comparison determine whether rebuilding is appropriate.

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. Call 239-323-9600.

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.
