Why Certification Matters
Not Every Mechanic Knows Your Boat
Factory certification means our technicians are trained directly by Malibu, Axis, Nautique, Yamaha, and Indmar to the exact tolerances the manufacturer requires. We don't cut corners with generic diagnostic software or third-party substitute parts.
Direct Factory Training
Annual master-craft certifications done live at manufacturer facilities.
OEM Genuine Parts
We carry over $1M in local OEM inventory, ensuring exact fits and full warranty coverage.
We provide factory certified service for every major marine brand

Client Experiences
Proven On Idaho Waters
"The team at Idaho Water Sports are the only ones I trust with my Nautique G23. They solved an electrical gremlin that two other general mechanics couldn't figure out. Highly recommend."
"Flawless gelcoat restoration! Sraped our Axis against an iron dock. Garret matched the metallic flake perfectly. You absolutely cannot tell it was ever damaged."
"Their winterization and concierge indoor storage package makes seasonal handoffs completely effortless. They drop the boat off freshly buffed and ready in May."
