Salcombe Marine Services are the main agent for Volvo Penta, Honda Marine, and Yanmar Marine engines, and are well on their way to becoming the best marine engineering company in the South West.

When you have a Formula One engineer at the helm, you can expect a company to really know what they’re doing and where they’re going.

The expert is their Managing Director Jake Cronk, who, after achieving a masters in mechanical engineering, started his engineering career in the marine industry before working as a mechanical design engineer for the Mercedes Formula 1 and Formula E team.

Jake was brought on board when the North Yorkshire-based Land Rover Defender specialist Twisted Group became their parent company in 2020 and they were rebranded from SMS Salcombe, to Salcombe Marine Services.

Based at the deep-water mooring at Lincombe Boatyard in Salcombe, Salcombe Marine Services have been on the Kingsbridge and Salcombe Estuary for the last two decades and specialise in repair, parts and sales for all boats. They also have the capability to mail order parts and click and collect from their parts and sales counter.

For something more specialist, Salcombe Marine Services are the main agent for Volvo Penta, Honda Marine, and Yanmar Marine and for the Volvo Penta engines they are the only authorised main agents in Salcombe and a real specialist - so if your boat has a Volvo Penta, why would you take it anywhere else?

Salcombe Marine Services are really building their brand of excellence beyond the South Hams and into the wider south west. Their trucks are being spotted across the Westcountry, where people who see them know they know their stuff and stand for a brand to believe in.

Back at home, Salcombe Marine Services can not only repair, service and sell you a beautiful boat, they can solve your short term storage options too. They have three undercover hangers that can be used to store your boat somewhere draft and dust-free.

Salcombe Marine Services also create packages for their clients who don’t live in the South Hams, where they can defoul, service, refuel and launch your boat ready for your arrival.

All the packages are flexible but the most popular one is the ‘Five Launch and Recovery package’ where all they ask is 72 hours notice to get your boat ready for you to come and use it. Perfect for the impromptu visit to the South Hams to take the best advantage of the weather and the conditions.

If you think Salcombe Marine Services can offer you what you need, check out their website via our SouthHams.com listing HERE or contact Jake and the team directly by calling 01548 843655 or 07860 929654.
