Owning your own boat can bring months of enjoyment from spring to fall, but when winter comes, it’s time to put your boat in the garage or in storage for the season, waiting for the next beautiful day to get out on the water. In the meantime, though, why not take advantage of the time spent indoors by taking your boat in for maintenance, repairs, and remodeling? Rather than running into any problems next spring when you start it up again or bringing your boat in mid-spring for a remodeling project that could have been completed before, why not use the time when you can’t be on your boat to make any adjustments you could want or need this year? At Anchor Marine Repair, we work year-round, providing winter boat overhauls for boat owners all over Minnesota from our Delano, MN boat repair shop. Read Full Post

If you are a power boat owner, you know the importance of your boat’s transom. The transom is responsible for both transmitting the power from the engine to the rest of the hull and for carrying the pounding of the hull back to the engine. Because of its location and its function, the transom of a boat often becomes weakened over time. This weakening comes as a result of normal wear and tear, weather and rotting that naturally occurs. Anchor Marine Repair of Minneapolis/St Paul can complete transom boat repair when you need it and get you and your boat back on the water fast. Read Full Post

Has anyone ever heard of a load bearing wall? If you’ve done any sort of housing construction or been a part of a “reno-gone-wrong” then a load bearing wall may sound familiar to you. Basically, if you remove this particular wall within a home, the entire home has the potential to come crumbling down. Did you know that most boats have something similar to this? In the boating world, we call this piece the transom. The transom is the flat surface forming the stem of the vessel. It reinforces the stem and ultimately, keeps the boat held together. So the last thing you’d want is that good ole transom to rot, or break. If you live in Minnesota and you’re looking for transom repair & replacement, look no further than Anchor Marine Repair.
