Like all boats, Duffys run best when serviced properly. The good news is that Duffy Boats are designed to make this as easy and painless as possible. Of course you never have to perform any of the messy gas engine-related maintenance chores like changing the oil or replacing fuel filters.
One of the best things about an electric boat is its simplicity. The electric motor is the one moving part inside the boat (depending on your model). The only other operational components that need maintenance are the controller (the “brains” of the boat) and the charger. We’ve made these plug-and-play so if anything ever goes wrong, we simply send you a new unit, and days later you just unplug the old part and replace it with the new one – it’s that easy!
The easiest and best way to keep your boat in like-new condition is with our Duffy Care maintenance and cleaning program (available in select areas only). Once a year, our crew hauls your boat out of the water and performs a full electrical/mechanical inspection, then gives it a thorough cleaning, a nice polish & wax on the hull, and a couple of fresh coats of bottom paint.
For the remainder of the year, each month a team of certified Duffy Technicians stop by the boat and run all the checks possible. Then our cleaning crew details your Duffy from top to bottom, and a diver scrapes the bottom to remove any buildup (depending on the type of water you are in). All of that is certainly not required, it just keeps your Duffy looking and running like new for years and years.
