When your boat is down, you are not on the water — and for serious hunters and anglers in Northeast Arkansas, that is not an option. At West Performance Marine in Lake City, Arkansas, our Boat Repair and Diagnostics service is built around one goal: finding the problem fast and getting you back on the water with confidence. Our skilled technicians bring hands-on expertise and professional diagnostic equipment to every job, and our commitment to fast, honest, quality work is the reason hunters and anglers across the Arkansas Delta trust us with their most important equipment.
West Performance Marine serves the boating communities of Lake City, Jonesboro, Marked Tree, Trumann, Harrisburg, and the broader Northeast Arkansas region. We understand that in this part of the country, your boat is not a recreational luxury — it is essential equipment for the way you hunt and fish. Whether you are running a Havoc hunting rig through flooded timber or fishing the backwaters of Poinsett County before sunrise, a mechanical problem cannot wait. Our service department is staffed, equipped, and ready to diagnose and repair your boat quickly so you never miss a day on the water that matters.


Our boat repair and diagnostics service covers the full range of outboard motor and marine system issues. We handle everything from basic outboard troubleshooting and tune-up follow-up repairs to complex engine diagnostics involving fuel delivery, ignition timing, compression issues, cooling system failures, and electrical faults. We use professional-grade diagnostic equipment to accurately identify the root cause of problems — not just the symptoms — which means we fix issues correctly the first time rather than applying temporary solutions that fail again mid-season. We service all major outboard brands including Tohatsu, Mercury, Yamaha, Evinrude, Honda, and more.
One of the most common issues we see in our service department is deferred maintenance that has developed into a more serious mechanical failure. A boat that runs a little rough, idles inconsistently, loses top-end speed, or takes several attempts to start is telling you that something needs attention — and the longer it is ignored, the more expensive and disruptive the eventual repair becomes. At West Performance Marine, we encourage our customers to bring their boats in at the first sign of a problem rather than waiting until the issue forces them off the water at the worst possible moment. Our diagnostic process is thorough, and our technicians will walk you through exactly what they found and what it will take to fix it before any repair work begins.
As an authorized Tohatsu dealer, West Performance Marine has factory-level expertise on Tohatsu outboard motors and direct access to genuine OEM parts. This means Tohatsu warranty repairs are handled correctly, documented to manufacturer standards, and processed through the proper channels to protect your coverage. For non-warranty repairs on Tohatsu and all other brands, we maintain a well-stocked parts inventory that allows us to complete most repairs quickly without long lead times waiting for components to arrive. Our goal is always to minimize the time your boat spends in the shop and maximize the time you spend on the water.
Whether your boat needs a minor adjustment or a major repair, the West Performance Marine service team approaches every job with the same level of care, skill, and urgency.
We are boating enthusiasts ourselves - hunters and anglers who understand exactly what is at stake when your equipment is not performing. That shared passion for the water is what drives our service standards, and it is what has built our reputation as the most trusted marine service provider in Lake City, Arkansas and the surrounding Northeast Arkansas region. Call us at (870) 530-0480 to schedule your repair or diagnostics appointment, or stop by our dealership and let us take a look. We look forward to getting you back on the water.
