Trusted Boat Repair in Clermont, FL
Clermont sits right in the middle of some of the best boating water west of Orlando. Downtown backs up to Lake Minneola, the busiest lake on the Clermont Chain, and a few miles east is Johns Lake on the Winter Garden line, one of the best known bass lakes in Central Florida.
Weekends out here mean pontoons cruising from lake to lake, bass boats running the river between Minneola and Minnehaha, and families tubing behind ski boats all summer. All of that adds up to a lot of engine hours, and hot summer days make every small problem a little worse.
Our shop is in Mount Dora, about 40 minutes from Clermont, and for most jobs we come to you. We work in driveways, at lakefront docks and on boat lifts across Clermont, Minneola, Groveland and Winter Garden. We are family owned, we have more than 35 years in Florida marine repair, and you get a clear quote before we start.
The Clermont Chain and Johns Lake
The Clermont Chain is a string of about a dozen lakes tied together by the Palatlakaha River. Lake Louisa is the biggest at roughly 3,600 acres, followed by Lake Minnehaha and Lake Minneola, and you can run between them without ever pulling the boat out. The water is dark from the cypress trees that line the shore, so it is hard to see what is under you.
Johns Lake covers about 2,580 acres and is split into east and west pools joined by a channel. It has a lot of grass, lily pads and submerged timber, which is great for bass fishing and hard on props and lower units. When the water drops, that channel gets tricky.
Weeds pulled into water intakes are one of the most common reasons we see engines overheat out here, and stump and bottom strikes are a close second. We know these lakes, so we know where to look first.
