Complete Marine Engine Repowers, Planned & Engineered for Your Vessel

When an existing engine is no longer delivering the performance, reliability or efficiency your vessel requires, a professional repower can provide a long-term solution.

D’Aprix Marine Services specialises in complete marine engine repowers for luxury, recreational and commercial vessels from 40 to over 130 feet. From initial assessment and engine selection through to installation, alignment and commissioning, we manage the mechanical engineering involved in delivering a reliable repower.

Based at The Boat Works on Queensland’s Gold Coast, we are an Authorised Service Centre and Dealer for Yanmar, Cummins, Caterpillar (CAT) and Cummins Onan.

A Complete Repower Service

A successful repower involves far more than removing an old engine and installing a new one. The new system needs to work seamlessly with the vessel's existing propulsion, cooling, exhaust, electrical and drivetrain systems.

Our repower services can include:

  • Vessel and existing engine assessment

  • Repower planning and engine selection

  • Engine removal and installation

  • Engine room modifications and upgrades

  • Propulsion system assessment

  • Shaft and engine alignment

  • Cooling and exhaust system integration

  • Generator and power system upgrades

  • Drivetrain diagnostics

  • Testing and commissioning

We take a complete engineering approach to ensure the new installation is properly integrated with the vessel.

Engineered for Long-Term Reliability

A repower is a significant investment, so getting the installation right is critical. Poor alignment, inadequate cooling or incorrectly matched propulsion components can affect performance and reliability.

Our team considers the wider vessel systems throughout the project, with careful attention to engine and shaft alignment, cooling, propulsion and drivetrain performance.

The result is a repower designed to improve performance, reliability and operational confidence while helping minimise future downtime.

From Assessment to Completion

Every vessel and repower project is different. We work closely with owners, captains and operators throughout the process, providing clear communication and detailed reporting from initial assessment through to completion.

Whether you're replacing an ageing engine, upgrading vessel performance or planning a complete engine room overhaul, D’Aprix Marine Services can provide the specialist engineering support required.
