ABOUT US
PORT DIESEL has been providing quality service since 2017. We’re a locally owned mobile diesel engine service and repair company with over 15 years of experience in the Marine, High Horsepower, Transit/Bus, On Highway, and Industrial Divisions in the DC Metropolitan Area, North Carolina Seaboard, and South Carolina Seaboard. Our technicians are certified in a wide range of engines and have a proven track record of excellence and attention to detail. We specialize in Cummins engines, Zeus Pod drive systems, Diesel Marine Systems and Generators. We are here for you as a Zeus, Kohler and Veratron dealer. Serving the Wilmington area as a reputable business ensures that our technicians meet the highest industry standards. Our goal is to be a marine service leader. We value our customers opinions and satisfaction which have earned us the trust of boat owners and local film companies in the area. Many of our customers have continued to reach out to us for their mechanical needs and it is them we can thank for spreading the word and earning us the great reputation that we have and continue to build here in the Port City.
William, who goes by his middle name "Garrett," is our master mechanic and owner. He obtained his Diesel and Industrial Technology Degree in 2009 and worked directly for Cummins during the development of the Zeus Pod Drives. He is extremely interested in the engineering behind propulsion systems and enjoys fishing and boating outside of work.
Jennifer is our office manager, handling all accounting, scheduling and HR matters. She grew up boating on the Chesapeake Bay and Potomac River where she developed her love for the water. Jen enjoys meeting new customers and serves as our liaison between mechanics and boat owners.
Tyler, our Parts Manager, handles all of our parts inventory in house. He also helps us prepare for upcoming jobs, sending parts through our ultrasonic cleaner and spends time in the field furthering his knowledge. Outside of work he enjoys salt and fresh water fishing.

“I have worked in the marine industry as a mechanical engineer for over 30 years. Garrett of Port Diesel has done work for me both professionally and on my own boat. I can say without question that he does outstanding work. Not only does he have the knowledge and skill to fix your vessel, he will fix it right and probably make it better. He is absolutely committed to taking care of the customer. Get it done right, get Port Diesel!”

“Port diesel is the only marine mechanic that we trust to keep our charter vessel running top notch. Garrett and his team are by far the best marine mechanics around. Garrett is not only a great mechanic, but he is knowledgeable in all aspects of boat systems. Garrett will quickly be able to diagnose any potential problems from the engine, transmission, fuel systems, and running gear. Port diesel will never waste your money on unnecessary fixes! A reliable and trustworthy marine mechanic is hard to come by, and we will only recommend Garrett. Our Cummins engines run better now than they ever have and it’s all thanks to Garrett and port diesel.”

"If you have vessel with Zeus Pods - Garrett and Jen at Port Diesel are the only people you should be speaking too. They know Zeus Pods inside and out, plus they carry good stocks of most things!"
