马恩岛与船同义，从挤满当地船只的当地码头和港口，到决定带着自己的船只穿越爱尔兰海来参观马恩岛的众多游客。在道格拉斯和皮尔，我们有 2 个很棒的码头，里面有来访船只所需的所有设施。就个人而言，有时在我们这个小岛上，出海的机会让我保持理智！当然，拥有船只并不只是在水上度过几天，船用发动机价格昂贵，而且经常是喜怒无常的野兽，在现代社会，大多数发动机都不再可供用户使用，这时就需要一名优秀的船舶工程师，在我看来，在马恩岛，最好的船舶工程师是位于巴拉萨拉的 MJS Marine。
Mike and Chris and happy to offer up advice and can take on work on just about any type of engine that will go in or hang off the back of a boat you could care to mention. To date my own experience with them has been faultless.
As well as the noisy bit they are also more than capable of dealing with other marine problems, fittings and fixtures including:-
- Installing lights
- Fitting/re-wiring electrical systems including all common marine electronics (GPS/Fishfinder etc)
- Onboard heating and hot water systems
- Rigging problems
- Cleaning both outside/inside
- Anti-fouling
Labour rates are affordable and regular customers can enjoy a loyalty discount on annual engine service rates. They can either come to visit you or you can take your boat to them at their workshop in Ballasalla. One extra service they do offer is that they can handle the trailer work for you or even provide a trailer (depending on the size of your boat), so if you don’t have access to a trailer they will do all they can to help you out.
Finally MJS Marine offer a large selection of marine electronics, engines and general chandlery for sale from their shop which is attached to their workshop. (A special note for Evinrude E-Tec owners, you can buy Evinrude XD-100 oil from MJS Marine).
You can contact MJS Marine either direct at the workshop on 01624 822920 or by mobile on 07624 472531
