Plaza Boat Care · Bonaire

We take care of it.

Owning a boat should be a pleasure, not a project. Our workshop and dock team keep your boat safe, clean and reliable all year round — from a routine service to a full refit. Official service point for Axopar and Honda Marine, and a Mercury repower & service center.

Full-service on the island

One team. Everything covered.

Salt, sun and daily use are hard on a boat. We look after a whole club fleet under exactly those conditions, so we know what wears out here and what lasts. That same care is available to every boat owner on Bonaire — whether you're a member, an owner in our management programme, or simply moored next door.

  • Certified technicians & genuine parts
  • Haul-out, workshop and in-water service
  • Fixed-price maintenance plans available
  • Emergency & breakdown support

What we do

From a wash to a full refit.

Everything your boat needs, in one place — with one team responsible for the result.

Scheduled maintenance

Annual and 100-hour services, oil and filters, impellers, anodes, belts and gearbox oil — planned ahead so you never miss a season.

Engine service & diagnostics

Certified Honda and Mercury service: computer diagnostics, fault finding, tune-ups and warranty work, done on the island.

Repower

New outboards on an older hull — we advise on the right power, supply, rig, calibrate and sea-trial the complete package.

Antifouling & haul-out

Haul-out, pressure wash, hull prep and antifouling — plus propshaft, anode and through-hull checks while she's dry.

Detailing & polishing

Wash-downs, compounding and wax, teak treatment, upholstery and stainless care — your boat looking showroom-new.

Refits & upgrades

Gelcoat and paint repairs, upholstery, T-tops, electronics, lighting, audio and deck hardware — small upgrades to full rebuilds.

Electrics & electronics

Batteries and charging, wiring faults, navigation, VHF, plotters and trim systems — diagnosed properly, fixed once.

Storage & hurricane care

Secure berths and dry storage, winterising, hurricane-season preparation and haul-out, plus checks while you're away.

Surveys & handover

Pre-purchase inspections, condition reports, delivery preparation and handover training for new owners.

Something not on the list? Ask us — if we can't do it in-house, we know who can. Trailer and dinghy work, tender servicing and mobile call-outs are all possible.
