We're in the middle of a refit on a gorgeous San Lorenzo yacht — and our team just delivered a fully custom hot tub we built from scratch in our shop. No template. No off-the-shelf solution. Our guys fabricated it start to finish and dropped it right onto the deck.
This was the captain's response.
"Wow … I'm blown away."
It's messages like these that make us so pumped about what we do every day. 🛥️
Five locations across South Florida. One team that builds what doesn't exist yet.

Your AC tech says you need refrigerant. But does your system actually?
Scale and biofilm buildup inside the condenser cooling coil is one of the most common causes of poor cooling performance we see — and it presents exactly like a low refrigerant charge. Before anyone touches the refrigerant charge, it's worth ruling out the coil first.
A flow test and temperature differential tells you the truth in minutes.
Swipe to see what we check before anything else. ➡️
As South Florida's service experts, we've seen this misdiagnosis more times than we can count. Pre-season AC slots are filling up — six months of heat starts now. Book before it finds you first.

🇺🇸 Freedom isn't free. These two already know it.

Two of the Gillen grandkids — out on the water, flags flying, living the life that brave men and women made possible.

This Memorial Day, we pause from the boats, the engines, and the open water to remember the ones who never came home. The ones who traded their tomorrows so our families could have ours.

To every fallen hero and every Gold Star family — thank you. You are why we sail freely. You are why we live freely. You will never be forgotten.

From our family to yours — we honor their memory today. 🙏⚓

Your charter is booked. The guests are coming. The clock is already running.

Now try getting your electrician, your mechanic, your AC guy, your systems tech, and three other subs to show up in the right order, on the same week, ready to hand off to each other.

They won't. Because nobody is running that show but you — and you've got a charter to prepare for.

At GYS, every trade is in-house. Our specialists talk to each other, sequence the work, and move as one team. We've done this a thousand times. We know what needs to happen and in what order.

You focus on your guests. We'll get your boat ready.

This is your clock on subs.
Calling. Explaining. Chasing. Waiting. Following up. Coordinating. Excuses. Wrong parts. Doing it all over again.
And you're the one managing all of it — because subs don't talk to each other. You're the middleman between every trade, every schedule, and every problem that comes up.

At GYS, every trade is in-house. Our specialists coordinate with each other, sequence the work, and keep the job moving. No middleman. No runaround. No lost season.

One call. New clock.

Your chiller doesn't care about your summer plans. We do.

It won't send a warning. It won't wait until you're back at the dock. It will quit on a Friday in August when it's 94 degrees and your boat is full of people.

We've been there. We've gotten that call.

GYS is a factory authorized service provider for — and we know these systems the way you only can after 30 years of working on them in South Florida heat. When we do a pre-season tune-up, we're not running a checklist. We're checking raw water flow, descaling the heat exchanger, inspecting the impeller, and going through every terminal and control board connection in the system.

Because that's where failures hide. Not in the obvious places — in the ones nobody looked at since last October.

One visit. Before summer makes the decision for you.

The GYS team is cutting the thruster tunnel on a 32' Regal — and this is where the magic starts. 🔧
A full Sleipner bow thruster installation means cutting the tunnel, fiberglassing the tube into the hull, mounting the gear leg & motor, dedicated battery install, and full electrical integration into the vessel's charging system.
The result? Total docking confidence. Every. Single. Time. 🎯
