Our story
Built in Costa Mesa. Run by people who grew up on these docks.
Maurer Marine is a family-run shop. Factory-certified for Mercury, Suzuki, Yamaha, and Honda outboards and Zodiac, Novurania, Walker Bay, and MilPro inflatables — and we service what we sell.
What that means in practice: when you bring us a job, the same team that knows the brand also knows your boat. The same crew that wrote the order works the parts counter, runs the dock truck, and finishes the install. No hand-offs.
We work the way Costa Mesa expects us to — direct, fast, and honest. If we can fix it, we'll quote it. If we can't, we'll tell you. That's how a shop survives 49 years.
