Marine Electrical Services

Five disciplines. One mobile shop.

Coastal Current works across the full electrical infrastructure of a modern vessel, from the switch panel at the helm to the battery bank in the bilge. Every discipline below is performed to ABYC standard, dockside, wherever your boat sits.

01 / Marine Electronics Installation

Instruments that are actually integrated, not just installed.

Chartplotters, multifunction displays, radar, fishfinders, sonar, VHF radios, satellite communications, and the sensors that feed them. The work isn't finished when a unit powers on. It's finished when every instrument talks to the others, calibration is correct, and the wiring behind the panel is something you'd be comfortable showing a surveyor.

02 / Electrical Systems & Troubleshooting

Solving the actual fault, not replacing parts until something works.

Advanced diagnosis, repair, design, and upgrading of AC and DC systems: troubleshooting, rewiring, shore power, custom switch panels, circuit protection, distribution, battery systems, and charging. Coastal Current traces problems to their source and documents the fix against applicable ABYC standard.

03 / Off-Grid & Lithium Power Systems

Independence from the dock: engineered, not improvised.

LiFePO4 lithium battery banks, high-output alternators, solar arrays, wind generators, smart charging, inverters, and energy monitoring integrated as one system instead of a pile of parts. This is Coastal Current's strongest specialty. The outcome is longer time away from shore power and a system that actually reports its own condition.

04 / Marine Electrical Surveys

Finding the problem before it finds you.

Comprehensive electrical inspections for pre-purchase evaluations, insurance requirements, existing owners, and preventative maintenance, using thermal imaging, stray-current testing, wiring inspection, and ABYC compliance assessment to identify corrosion risk and hidden faults before they become expensive or dangerous.

05 / Power Management

Onboard power you can see, not just hope is working.

Installation and integration of smart inverters, multi-bank battery chargers, digital monitoring, and power distribution components, built for reliability, visibility, and control over every circuit drawing from your battery bank.
