⚓️ A Little Sneak Peek… ⚓️

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at one of this year’s projects for our sponsor guide, ** Fish Food Guide Service**.

Clean wiring, proper power distribution, and attention to detail are what separate a system that works from a system you can trust when you’re miles from the dock. Every connection, fuse, bus bar, and cable route is being laid out with reliability and serviceability in mind.

This is just a small glimpse of what’s going into this build. We’re excited to help get this boat ready for another successful season on the water.

At Friendly Marine, we don’t just install electronics—we build systems designed to handle long days, rough water, and years of dependable service.

Stay tuned for more photos as this project comes together. 🎣⚡️

⚓ Friendly Marine Update & Summer Specials ⚓
We're currently running some great specials on Lowrance, Raymarine, and Epoch Batteries! If you've been thinking about upgrading your electronics, replacing an aging battery bank, or getting your boat dialed in before the season gets busy, now is a great time to reach out.
We also have a few installation openings still available before we shut down larger projects for Buoy 10 season.
Whether you're looking for:
✔️ Marine Electronics Sales & Installation
✔️ Lithium Battery Upgrades
✔️ NMEA 2000 Networking
✔️ Trolling Motors
✔️ Sonar & Live Sonar Systems
✔️ Electrical Troubleshooting & Rewires
Now is the time to get on the schedule.
As always, once Buoy 10 kicks off, I'll be spending most of my time on the water, but I know how important every fishing day is. If you're a guide and have an electrical or electronics issue that's keeping you from fishing, I'll do my best to help with emergency service whenever possible to keep you on the water and taking care of your clients.
Thank you to everyone who continues to support Friendly Marine. I truly appreciate every customer who trusts me with their boats and their business.

🔧 A lot more goes into an install like this than just bolting parts onto a boat.

We’ve spent the time making sure every detail is right—taking into account strength, fiberglass reinforcement, high freeboard challenges, fitment, clearance, and overall installation quality. Everything has been measured, marked, and finalized.

Tomorrow we move into fabrication of the 3/8” aluminum mounting plate along with a custom backing plate to properly distribute the load and ensure long-term durability.

The goal is simple: a clean, professional installation that not only looks great but is built to handle years of ocean abuse without compromise.

At Friendly Marine, we believe the details matter. When you’re hanging equipment on a boat that sees real offshore conditions, doing it right the first time is the only option.

⚓ Built for function.
⚓ Built for strength.
⚓ Built to last.

⚓ A Little Thank You From Friendly Marine ⚓

One thing I’ve always tried to pride myself on at Friendly Marine is going above and beyond for my customers.

Sometimes that’s a custom 3D-printed part to solve a problem that nobody makes a solution for. Sometimes it’s answering the phone at 9 PM because you’re trying to get ready for a trip. Sometimes it’s spending extra time tracking down an issue that wasn’t even part of the original job.

Not everything we do ends up on an invoice. Sometimes it’s just about doing what’s right and helping fellow boaters get back on the water.

I truly appreciate every single person who has trusted me with their electronics purchases, boat refits, wiring projects, trolling motors, lithium battery upgrades, troubleshooting, and everything in between.

Friendly Marine has grown because of word-of-mouth, repeat customers, and the support of an incredible boating community. As a small business, that trust means more than I can put into words.

Thank you for the opportunities, the referrals, the conversations at the dock, and for allowing me to be part of your boating adventures.

I don’t take it for granted.
