Orange County Marine Technicians

Recently, I purchased a 1989 Bertram 37 Convertible. I wanted to do some upgrades to the stereo (Fusion 755), add a TV, batteries, and inverter/charger. Not really knowing what to expect after being extremely disappointed having had a few integrator's provide estimates, or say they were going to provide estimates and never showed, I was a little hesitant to contact OC Marine Installation. Much to my surprise, after contacting Shannon at the OC office, an apt was made and Brenton (owner) not only showed up on time, but was actually early. We walked and talked about the boat from bow to stern and he clearly laid out the chronological events that would follow, and an estimated time frame for completion and cost. While we did run into some unexpected hiccups along the way (not OC's fault) and scope creep (I added to the project as it progressed), Brenton and team did an unbelievable job, stayed true to the scope of work, and kept a consistent open line of communications throughout the process. I would highly recommend Brenton and his team to anyone looking to do upgrades or repairs to their vessel. I can't say enough positive things about the quality of work and customer service I received. Looking forward to the WiFi and other upgrades soon, after I win the lotto! Thanks again, team OC!

Brenton and his outstanding team have done numerous projects for me on my 40 foot Tiara and Boston whaler. We’ve had him for example install solar panels, replace all breakers, rewire all the connections in the engine room, and resolve a nagging problem with the power source to my navigation systems that came with the boat when I bought it. This is an extremely professional outfit that has a stick to it attitude to get things done properly and to the customer’s satisfaction. I give his number out freely to anyone who asks about my solar panels. I can’t say enough good things about him Thanks!!

I purchased a used Tiara 3600 Open and wanted to make some upgrades. Brenton and his associate Chad stepped up and handled everything, from solar, Apple TV, Boat Command monitoring and ensuring I had adequate power from the 6 batteries via shore power, generator, under power or through the inverter. While the project got away from me a bit, Brenton remained patient and responsive, including when we reviewed the final invoice and worked through payment. I'd highly recommend Brenton.

Had OC Marine Installations do a complete Furuno system install on my brand new Kingfisher 2625 Coastal Express pilot house recently. I could not be more impressed with their work and professionalism in every aspect of this job. I was EXTREMELY nervous about having someone do the work to begin with and after much research settled OC Marine Installations. Spoke with Shannon initially, then with Brenton a few times and when all was said and done they sent Carolyn to do the actual install. To say I was skeptical with having a female installer would be a huge understatement but once I began to speak with Carolyn I very quickly realized she really knew her stuff and stepped back and just watched her get started or get into her "zone" as she likes to call it. She works very efficiently and extremely clean to the point that when she has to drill holes she has the drill motor in one hand and her Rigid vacuum nozzle in the other to catch all the shavings from actual drilling process. Carolyn mounted my Furuno TzTouch2 MFD, Furuno DRS4 NXT radar and 5" mount, Icom 424G VHF radio, antenna and mount in a matter of a few hours and it is by far the cleanest most professional install I've ever seen! I now request only Carolyn to come out work on my boat as she is absolutely top notch. Matter of fact she will back on my boat Monday morning to replace my brand new bilge pumps with higher quality pumps and float switches. Factory stuff is back there is simply not up to my standards so it's being removed and replaced. Carolyn says that's what she likes about me, I don't cut corners or go cheap on any aspect of my boat. This boat cost me over 100K and I'm smart enough to know what I can and cannot do as well as when to call in the professionals and that is Carolyn at OC Marine Installations. Make the call, you wont regret it I promise you! Bob Anderson San Pedro, CA

We have a cabo 40 express. We wanted to redo the audio and visual components of the boat since they were outdated. Brenton and his team did a great job. Not only can we watch sat tv, Apple TV, or blue ray in the cabin but I have sat tv going to my chartplotters too which is great when you are on watch. He also linked the tv to the chartplotter so folks in bed know where we are. I have gone with big companies in the past who also do excellent work but what I liked from this experience is that Brenton is responsive, reasonable, and just a good dude. Thanks for the work.

Can't say enough positive things about Brenton and his team. I purchased a 1992 Bayliner Ciera 2452 from 2nd owner back in April 2015. The motor and outdrive had recently been rebuilt, but the prior owners failed to update any of the electrical and wiring to/from batteries. After the initial consultation with Brenton, it was very apparent that I was lucky to have not had an electrical fire in the last several months of ownership. Connections were total corroded, wires exposed in some spots due to housings being old and melted, fuses rusted and blown, you name it. OC Marine Installation spent a full day completely overhauling the electrical to each of my three batteries, re-positioned the batteries on the boat to provide for safer and easier use and repair, rewired up to my inverter and off the engine, and a few other minor things. They got me back to operating at full power. The work was very clean. I plan to have them come back out soon to install new navigation lights and new speakers. They are very reasonably priced. No upselling. Brenton only recommended what was actually needed to be running safely and at full power. Thanks Brenton and OC Marine Installation...You've added value to my old boat...I feel confident to head back out on the open water! Thanks again, Chris S

Thank you so much to Brenton and his Brother. Installed a windlass and stereo plus speakers on my Formula boat. Very easy to work with and professional. Quality work at reasonable prices what more can you as for. Thanks again!!! Phil

Brenton and his crew did a great job with some electronic and electrical work on my boat. They were on time and completed the jobs efficiently and left the boat cleaner than when they arrived. The work was quality and the price fair.

OC Marine installed a Raymarine multi-function display and sonar transducer in my boat. If you want a professional, high-end installation of your marine electronics, then Brenton Woolworth is your guy. He was professional, courteous, on time, and the install went perfectly. He even spent time with me ensuring I was comfortable with all the features and controls. His labor fee is extremely reasonable as well. The next time I need marine electronics installed, I'm definitely calling OC Marine Installation!! I highly recommend him and his company to anyone!

Very happy with OC Marine Installation. Brenton and his team are professional and very skilled. Estimates are very accurate and reasonable. Brenton is a good communicator an d takes a great deal of pride in getting the job done right. I am certain that I will use and refer OC Marine Installation many more times in the future.
