KEEPING YOUR DREAMS AFLOAT

WE WILL GET TO YOU BY LAND, SEA, OR AIR

Helped me with a complicated problem on a Fischer Panda generator. Always return my calls. CHARLES was amazing. Very comfortable in approaching them for questions. Will be a long time customer.

Guy Stofman

Got to Gillen. Diagnosed the engine and transmission and v drive were kaput. Ordered rebuild 4108 with transmission and a rebuilt v drive. Charles Robb worked with TADiesel to assure the V drive would work. Got up and running and out Port Everglades and back home to St Simons Ga. Highly recommend this great team!

Dan Williams

Unbelievable service, called Thursday for a Friday service on my windlass, received many updates and had a service rep (Andy) on my boat and working before I got back from lunch, Andy found a screw up from the last service ( double washers) and had me up and back in the game! Can’t sing these guys praises enough! Thank you Gillian

Greg Hornecker

We bought a previously enjoyed vessel that needed some TLC to get her back to our home state on an 800 mile journey. Gillen Diesel made sure our 20 year old mechanicals were in great shape and the journey went flawlessly. If you need competent & credible marine services for your vessel, don’t hesitate to call the best! The owners are hands on operationally & delightful to work with, as well.
