About Marine Service
In the Spring of 1999 Service Marine became a pontoon dealer for Waco Mfg selling their line of Aloha Pontoon Boats. Pontoon boats are stocked on premises during the Spring and Summer months, but can be special ordered any time of the year.
We keep a large supply of parts on hand and are able to order most anything we don’t stock ordered and shipped overnight from suppliers in Dallas. Props, trolling motors, and electronics for your boat are also available at Service Marine. Check with Tonya before ordering you next Depth Finder.
Safety Measures
Prior to using any watercraft, it’s crucial to prioritize safety. This includes wearing appropriate safety gear such as life jackets, understanding local boating regulations and navigational rules, and being aware of weather conditions and potential hazards. Additionally, maintaining proper balance and control of the watercraft while operating it is important for the safety of both the passengers and others on the water.
It’s worth noting that the specific process of servicing and using small boats, canoes, and jet skis can vary depending on the type and model of the watercraft, local regulations, and personal preferences. Manufacturers often provide detailed manuals and guidelines for maintenance and operation, so it’s recommended to consult the specific documentation for your watercraft for more detailed instructions.
