Old Town Marine - Key West
Boat Repair · Key West, FL
About
RealReviews profileOld Town Marine is a Key West marine-service shop at 7005 Shrimp Road, Suite 1W, with both mobile and shop service, published Yamaha, Suzuki, Garmin, and Tohatsu capabilities, repower work, warranty support, and unusually concrete pricing anchors. Its site publishes a $175 Service Advisor visit and says roughly 90% of repair work is quoted at flat rate after diagnosis; Yamaha 100-hour and 300-hour services are advertised from $399. Those figures are useful starting points, not complete prices for every engine or boat. Model, engine count, access, parts, corrosion, prior work, haul needs, travel, and discovered damage can change the final scope.
Old Town Marine - Key West: what to know
RealReviews editorial researchOld Town is the clearest first comparison when an owner wants a formal diagnosis followed by a written repair price, or needs published support involving Yamaha, Suzuki, Garmin, Tohatsu, repower, or warranty work. The strongest evidence is the resolved Shrimp Road identity, official service menu, and concrete $175 and $399 starting anchors. Before authorizing work, identify what the initial visit includes, whether travel or shop time is separate, which technician and manufacturer authorization applies, what evidence will be produced, and which discoveries require a new written approval.

Verify before booking Old Town Marine - Key West
- Published prices are starting anchors, not universal totals
- Manufacturer capability is not the same as authorization for every warranty claim
- A mobile visit may still lead to shop, yard, or haul-out work
- Corrosion and prior modifications can expand labor after inspection
Old Town's published pricing is a useful opening, not the final invoice
Old Town publishes a $175 Service Advisor visit and says about 90% of repair work moves to flat-rate pricing after diagnosis. That is more decision-useful than a bare request-a-quote page because it identifies a paid diagnostic boundary and a likely pricing model. Ask whether the $175 covers travel, a fixed block of time, scanning, mechanical tests, a written finding, and the transition to a repair proposal.
Its Yamaha 100-hour and 300-hour service pages advertise prices starting at $399. Match that number to the exact engine model, horsepower, engine count, hours, required kits and fluids, water-pump or gear-lube scope, corrosion condition, travel, tax, environmental fees, and service-record deliverable. A twin-engine boat or an overdue engine should not be compared against the single starting figure without normalization.
Old Town's engine and electronics fit should be confirmed at model level
The official site presents Yamaha, Suzuki, Tohatsu, and Garmin services, along with maintenance, repair, installation, repower, and warranty pathways. Send engine and equipment model information, hours, fault codes, prior invoices, photographs, and symptoms before the appointment. Ask the service manager to identify the assigned technician, current manufacturer credential or dealer authorization relevant to the specific job, and whether warranty administration is available for that serial and product.
For repower work, require the engine package, controls, gauges, harnesses, steering, batteries, fuel system, rigging, propeller, mounting or transom assumptions, removal and disposal, commissioning, sea trial, registration documents, warranty registration, and exclusions. A powerhead repair, complete repower, or electronics upgrade can also expose obsolete wiring, fuel, charging, steering, or structural conditions that need separate written decisions.
Old Town mobile service still needs an access and fallback plan
A mobile-service label does not mean every repair can be completed at a berth. Provide the marina or yard, slip or rack arrangement, shore-power state, parking, dock access, vessel mobility, and vendor rules. Confirm whether the technician may work at that facility, which work can be performed afloat, and what condition triggers a move to the shop, a haul-out, towing, or another trade.
Keep keys, gate codes, alarm details, and hidden access information out of a public form. After accepting written terms, arrange secure handoff directly. If the boat cannot safely move, identify who authorizes towing, the destination, storage or lay-day exposure, and the approval point before additional transport or yard charges are incurred.
What to collect when Old Town closes the job
The final package should identify the complaint, diagnostic findings, work performed, parts and condition, serial-relevant updates, fault-code clearing, measurements, software or firmware changes, fluid and filter details, photographs where useful, sea-trial or dock-test result, remaining defects, maintenance due dates, and written warranty. For an electronics or repower project, add diagrams, configuration records, manuals, registrations, and owner training.
RealReviews does not treat a business's own marketing or an outside star average as proof of a future outcome. Use the published details to decide whether Old Town fits the vessel, then compare a complete written scope, current credentials, schedule, and closeout against other qualified providers.
