Fishing Boat Engines and Transmissions
Fishing season creates tremendous pressure to minimize downtime. Harsh marine conditions and remote locations add to the challenges of keeping engines running at peak performance. After working as a mechanic on an Alaskan crab boat, Jim Porter founded Tacoma Diesel in 1969 to serve fishing boat operators’ unique and demanding needs. Our teams are dedicated to delivering quality, timely service to fishing boat operators.

- Reliable – our diesel engine professionals are familiar with the characteristics of each manufacturer’s equipment. We ensure all of your system components work together smoothly.
- Cost-Effective – time-tested systems and lower overhead ensure you save money. Plus, well-designed engines typically run longer, more reliably, and have a lower cost of ownership.

- Peace of Mind – We are an authorized dealer and have strong relationships with your engine and parts manufacturers. We will go to bat for you for a prompt solution if needed.
“We trust and rely on Tacoma Diesel. Their customer service goes above and beyond any other company. Last summer we needed a part flown to Alaska late on a Friday afternoon. Our purchasing department called Mike in parts and he said, “No problem”. He air freighted the part that afternoon. Our vessel received the part and made the repairs with no time lost on our itinerary. Exceptional customer service!”
