Why Maintain With Good Life?
- Keep your engine healthy. Routine oil and filter changes, cooling system flushes and impeller replacements prevent overheating and premature wear.
- Catch problems early. Regular system checks reveal fuel contamination, worn belts/hoses and battery corrosion before they ruin your Saturday—or worse, your trip.
- Improve performance & fuel efficiency. Clean plugs and proper lubrication help your boat run smoother and more efficiently.
- Stay safe on the water. A well‑maintained vessel means reliable starts, working bilge pumps and steering you can trust.
- Save money. We often save customers around 22 % compared to big dealer pricing. Preventative maintenance costs far less than repairs.

What We Watch For
Regular maintenance isn’t just changing oil. We inspect your boat for:
- Fuel contamination & water in the tank – we can treat and replace filters before your engine runs rough.
- Cooling system blockages – a clogged impeller or coolant line can overheat your engine.
- Battery corrosion & failure – we test, clean terminals and ensure charging systems work.
- Worn belts, hoses & fittings – cracked rubber can lead to leaks and breakdowns.
- Electrical & safety gear – lights, bilge pumps, horns and navigation equipment.
Skipping these checks can result in engine breakdowns, fuel inefficiency, electrical failures or loss of control.
Quality Products & Ethical Practices
We service your boat using manufacturer‑recommended oils, fuel treatments and system cleaners so your warranty stays intact and your engine runs its best. We use corrosion‑prevention sprays and watch for any leaks, keeping Utah’s lakes and reservoirs healthy for everyone. We haul away any used oils or chemicals and recycle them when possible.
Comfort & Peace of Mind
A well‑maintained boat gives you confidence on the water: reliable starts, smooth throttle response and fully functional safety gear. Time on the water should be fun for everyone—even Dad! A reliable and well‑maintained boat helps everyone to relax.
Beyond the Basics
Our mobile service isn’t limited to oil and filters. We can troubleshoot electrical issues, adjust steering and throttle, maintain plumbing systems and check lighting and electronics. If a larger repair is needed, we can take care of it at Good Life’s local garage.
When to Schedule
At a minimum, schedule full maintenance once per season or every 100 hours of run time. Boats used frequently, stored in the water or worked especially hard may benefit from oil changes and impellers more frequently. Early spring and early fall appointments ensure you’re ready for the season’s first launch and winterization.
