How We Work — The Green Boat Engines Process

Transparent, documented, and factory-aligned — so you know exactly what happens to your engine at every stage.

1

Diagnose

Visual inspection, electronic scan-tool readout, compression test, and fluid analysis. We identify the root cause, not just the symptom.

2

Quote

Itemised written estimate with labour hours, parts list, and timeline. No hidden costs. No work starts without your written approval.

3

Approve

You review the quote, ask questions, and sign off. For major overhauls, we provide photo updates at each teardown milestone.

4

Execute

Factory-certified technicians perform the work using genuine OEM parts, calibrated tools, and manufacturer service bulletins.

5

Test & Handover

Dyno run or water test, final QC checklist, digital service record upload, and warranty documentation. You're back on the water.

Every Engine Type, Every Major Brand

Our technicians hold current certifications and factory scan-tool licences for the brands you trust.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I book a service?
Call us on +31 970 050 30680, email info@greenboatengines.nl, or use the contact form. For routine maintenance, we can usually book you in within 5–10 working days. For emergency breakdowns, call our 24-hour line for same-day triage.
How long does a typical repair take?
Routine service: 1–2 days. Component replacement (turbo, pump, alternator): 2–4 days. Outboard powerhead rebuild: 5–7 days. Full inboard overhaul: 3–6 weeks depending on parts availability. We always give you a firm completion date before starting.
Do you use genuine OEM parts?
Yes — always. We source directly from authorised distributors and manufacturers. If an OEM part is on back-order, we will ask your permission before substituting an equivalent OEM-grade alternative. We never fit unbranded or counterfeit parts.
Can you service my engine if I didn't buy it from you?
Absolutely. Roughly 40% of our service customers bought their engines elsewhere. We service any marine engine — new, used, or reconditioned — regardless of where it was purchased. Manufacturer warranty work may require proof of purchase.
What is your mobile service area?
We cover a 100 km radius from Nieuwersluis (3631 NP), including Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Utrecht, The Hague, Haarlem, Leiden, and all major marinas on the IJsselmeer, Markermeer, and North Sea coast. Beyond 100 km, we can arrange collection or refer you to a trusted partner workshop.
Do you offer a warranty on reconditioned engines?
Yes. Every reconditioned engine we sell carries a 12-month unlimited-hours warranty covering parts and labour. The warranty is valid at our workshop or at any authorised dealer in the EU. Full terms are in our Refund & Returns Policy.
Can you convert my boat to electric or hybrid?
We specialise in Torqeedo and ePropulsion electric outboard installations up to 25 kW, and we consult on larger diesel-electric hybrid systems for sailboats and cruisers. Every conversion starts with a hull-efficiency assessment and battery-range calculation. Request a feasibility study.
How do I prepare my engine for winter storage?
The safest approach is to let us handle it — our Winterization & Storage service covers fogging, draining, stabilising, and battery care. If you DIY, the critical steps are: (1) run the engine to operating temperature, (2) fog the cylinders, (3) drain raw-water systems, (4) add fuel stabiliser, and (5) disconnect or trickle-charge the battery.
