21 feet of beam. 😮⚓️

This Manta 42 came in for saildrive service work, and she definitely turns heads on the lift.

Not every facility can accommodate a catamaran this wide, but we’re equipped and ready for projects just like this😎

Big things happened at True North Marine last week!

We were excited to host on-site product and installation training with Webasto at our facility as part of becoming a new authorized distributor for our area. Our team spent the week learning more about Webasto’s industry-leading marine climate control and heating systems, including proper installation, setup, troubleshooting, and product applications.

This partnership allows us to now sell, service, and professionally install new Webasto equipment for our customers right here on the Gulf Coast. Whether you are looking to upgrade your vessel’s air conditioning, heating, or onboard comfort systems, our team is ready to help with expert guidance, installation, and support.

A huge thank you to Webasto for taking the time to visit our facility and invest in training our staff. Continuing education and hands-on manufacturer training are a huge part of what sets the TNM team apart.

If you’re considering upgrades before summer boating season, contact us to discuss the best solution for your vessel. ⚓

We’re proud to be part of an incredible historic project at True North Marine. ⚓

Our team is currently installing a new FCI Watermakers Aquamizer 800 GPD desalination system aboard the historic Elissa tall ship as she prepares to sail from Galveston to New York for America’s 250th celebration this summer. 🇺🇸

This high-capacity watermaker will provide potable water for approximately 40 crew members during the voyage, helping support the ship and crew on this incredible journey.

Learn more about the historic Tall Ship ELISSA and the Sail4th 250 celebration at the links below:

Projects like this are a great example of the advanced marine systems work our team performs every day. From large commercial and historic vessel installations to compact systems for recreational boats and yachts, TNM provides professional watermaker sales, installation, and support for vessels of all sizes.

Whether you’re planning extended cruising, offshore trips, or simply want the convenience and independence of onboard fresh water production, our certified technicians can help you select and install the right system for your vessel.

We are honored to play a small role in helping the Elissa prepare for such an important event and look forward to following her journey this summer.
