Marine Electrician
Marine Electrician & Marine Electronics Specialists
At Shotgun Marine, we provide professional marine electrical and marine electronics services for boats that actually get used. From clean, reliable wiring through to fully integrated navigation systems, our focus is on safety, reliability and gear that works when you’re offshore or pushing home in ordinary conditions.
We’re authorised marine electricians and accredited marine electronics installers, servicing Port Macquarie and the wider NSW Mid North Coast, with support extending north and south as required. Backed by our partnership with PMMS, we work on everything from trailer boats and centre consoles through to cruisers, game boats and commercial vessels.
Marine Electrical Services We Provide
Marine electrics are not the same as automotive or domestic wiring. Boats live in salt, vibration and heat, which means electrical work needs to be done properly from the start.
- Marine electrical fault finding and repairs
- Battery systems, upgrades and charging solutions
- Safe power distribution and switch panels
- Navigation lights and compliance checks
- Clean rewiring and cable management
- Shore power and onboard power systems
Authorised Marine Electronics Installation
We are authorised installers for all major marine electronics brands, including Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad, Furuno, B&G, Coursemaster and Minn Kota. That means systems are supplied, installed and supported correctly — no guesswork and no mismatched gear.
- GPS chartplotters and multifunction displays
- Sounders and transducer placement
- Radar supply, installation and tuning
- Autopilot installation and commissioning

Set Up Properly, Not Just Plugged In
A lot of electrical and electronics issues come down to poor installation rather than faulty gear. We take the time to assess your boat, how it’s used, and what systems need to work together before anything is installed.
The result is clean wiring, stable power, reliable data sharing between systems and electronics that do what they’re meant to — without glitches or surprises offshore.
