Our Story of Excellence

Over 25 years serving recreational boat owners throughout South Florida

Our Heritage

Founded in Fort Lauderdale, Built on Excellence

American Boat Service was founded in Fort Lauderdale with a simple mission: to provide everyday boat owners with the same level of professional service and care they deserve. Whether you own a fishing boat, a family cruiser, or a weekend sailboat, we treat your vessel with the respect and attention it deserves.

For more than 25 years, we have been the trusted partner for recreational boat owners throughout South Florida. Our journey began with a passion for boating and a commitment to honest, reliable service. We've grown from a small operation into a full-service marine provider, but we've never forgotten our roots—serving the boating community with integrity and expertise.

What sets us apart is our factory-certified expertise across all major marine brands including Mercury, Yamaha, Honda, MerCruiser, and Volvo Penta. Whether you need routine maintenance on your outboard, a hull cleaning, or help with your boat's electrical system, we have the knowledge and experience to get the job done right. We work on everything from small fishing boats to larger cabin cruisers and sailboats.

Today, American Boat Service is known for one thing above all else: honest service at fair prices. We understand that boat ownership should be enjoyable, not stressful. That's why we focus on clear communication, transparent pricing, and quality workmanship that keeps your boat running smoothly season after season.
