FAQs

  • We provide 100% mobile boat repair to all of Lake Norman, including Davidson, Cornelius, Mooresville, Huntersville, Denver, and Sherrills Ford. We provide dockside service at private slips and all major marinas like Morningstar, Peninsula Yacht Club, and Safe Harbor Kings Point.

  • No. For your convenience, most of our clients simply leave their keys in a designated spot or with the marina office. We provide digital service reports and clear communication throughout the repair so you can go about your day.

  • Boat Doctor specializes in the brands that power Lake Norman: Yamaha, Mercury, MerCruiser, and PCM (Nautique/MasterCraft). We also provide expert diagnostics for Volvo Penta, Indmar, and Suzuki engines.

  • Our comprehensive annual service includes an engine oil and filter change, fuel/water separator replacement, gear lube change, and a full 20-point safety inspection (belts, batteries, bilge pumps, and fluids) to ensure your boat is lake-ready.

  • On Lake Norman, we recommend replacing your water pump impeller every 2 seasons or 100 hours. Preventing an overheat is significantly cheaper than repairing the damage caused by a failed impeller.

  • We recommend scheduling winterization between late October and mid-November. This ensures your engine block, ballast systems, and heaters are protected before the first hard freeze in the Davidson and Charlotte area.

  • Yes. If you are buying a used boat on Lake Norman, we offer a "Mobile Survey" that includes a full mechanical diagnostic, compression test, and sea trial to ensure you aren't buying a headache.
