Preventative Maintenance

This is by far the best mechanics I've ever used for anything. would give 10 stars if available.

Throughout my years I have always had boats, and needed them worked on. This has always been a challenge until Matthew was found. He is detailed, caring and passionate about his trade. There is nobody else on this planet I would recommend using other than this guy. Thanks again for all your help.

I can’t say enough good things about Matthew Varnado and Wakeless Mobile Marine. If you boat on Smith Mountain Lake and need a mechanic you can genuinely trust, look no further. Matthew handled both routine maintenance and a surprise complex engine diagnosis and repair on my boat at the end of last season, and he knocked it out of the park on both fronts. The maintenance work was thorough and done right — no shortcuts and no upselling on things I didn’t need. But where Matthew truly separated himself was the engine diagnosis. He tracked down the problem methodically, explained exactly what he was finding and why it mattered, and fixed it correctly the first time even though I am quite sure that the repair took much longer than anticipated. That kind of diagnostic skill and work ethic is hard to find. What I also appreciated was the communication throughout the process. Matthew kept me informed at every step including providing photos and videos. He was upfront about what the work involved and his pricing was very fair. Matthew clearly takes real pride in doing the job right rather than just getting it done. His mobile service model is also a huge convenience and Matthew was willing to both come by boat and by land depending on the circumstances. If you want a marine mechanic who is knowledgeable, honest, reliable, and genuinely good at what he does, call or reach out to Wakeless Mobile Marine. He’s earned a customer for life.

For the folks out there that demand the highest quality of service, expertise and professionalism there is Absolutely no better option! The owner of this company is also an amazing guy, who has forgotten more about the mechanics and operations of watercraft than most will ever know. Great guy and a solid business that I would not only recommend to anyone, But I would put my name on him and this business any day of the week! Absolute Pleasure doing business with you Mr. Varnado.

Owner Matt is very knowledgeable and very professional. Has worked on my 21 ft Sea Ray Bowrider. He has lots of knowledge and helpful tips to keep boat running in tip top shape. Would highly recommend for maintenance and repairs.

Owner is Awesome! Professionalism, honesty, on time, and very knowledgeable! Completed the 100hr service on my Outboard motor with NO Issues! Definitely recommend them and I will use them again!

Great to work with!

Incredible people and low prices! Very professional!

They originally got me into boating. It’s not a job it’s a passion.

When i told them the emergency problem that i was having, he told me he would do the best he could to get me up. I told him that it was my son’s birthday he said i’ll get it done. He went above and beyond to get my parts and get my son’s birthday request handled! He gets all my business from here on out
