Authorized Tohatsu Dealer in Plymouth, MA

Atlantic Boat Repair is your authorized Tohatsu dealer and service center in Plymouth, MA. Outboard service, repower, and parts for South Shore and Cape Cod boaters.

Tohatsu Outboard Service and Sales on the South Shore

Tohatsu has been building outboard motors since 1956, making it Japan's oldest outboard manufacturer and today the world's number two outboard producer. That long history shows up where it counts: in lightweight, fuel-efficient four-stroke engines that start reliably and run cleanly season after season. Distributed in the United States by Tohatsu America Corp, the four-stroke MFS lineup now spans 2.5 to 250 hp, from grab-and-go portables all the way up to a high-output V6 range built for bigger center consoles.

Atlantic Boat Repair is an Authorized Tohatsu Dealer and service center in Plymouth, Massachusetts. As an independent shop rather than a large dealership, we keep things straightforward: you talk to the same people who turn the wrenches, and we treat every motor like it has to get you home. We sell, rig, and service Tohatsu outboards, and we keep common service parts moving so a tune-up or a fix does not turn into a long wait.

We work on boats from across the South Shore and the Cape Cod Canal towns, including Duxbury, Kingston, Marshfield, Scituate, Bourne, and Sandwich, plus the Buzzards Bay communities of Wareham, Marion, and Mattapoisett. This is saltwater country: Cape Cod Bay, the Canal, and Buzzards Bay are hard on aluminum and steel, ethanol fuel sits over long off-seasons, and New England winters mean a freeze can crack a powerhead that was not properly winterized. We build our Tohatsu service around those realities.

Tohatsu is a strong match for the boats people actually run around here. The portable and mid-range MFS motors are a natural fit for inflatables and RIBs, dinghies and tenders, sailboat auxiliary (kicker) motors, skiffs, jon boats, and aluminum fishing boats, while the larger MFS and V6 models move small and mid-size center consoles. Whatever you are powering, we can spec it, install it, and keep it running.

Frequently Asked Questions About Tohatsu Service

Is Atlantic Boat Repair an authorized Tohatsu dealer?

Yes. Atlantic Boat Repair is an Authorized Tohatsu Dealer and service center in Plymouth, Massachusetts. We sell, rig, and service Tohatsu outboards and keep common service parts on hand to limit downtime.

What size Tohatsu is right for my inflatable, RIB, or dinghy tender?

For most inflatables, RIBs, and dinghy tenders, a lightweight Tohatsu MFS portable in the 2.5 to 20 hp range is the sweet spot. The right pick depends on the boat's weight, transom height, and how you store and carry the motor. Bring the boat or its specs to our Plymouth shop and we will match it for easy carrying, reliable starting, and the planing performance you want.

Can you repower my sailboat auxiliary kicker with a Tohatsu?

Yes. Tohatsu's lightweight four-stroke portables make a dependable sailboat auxiliary (kicker) motor, and we handle repowers regularly. We confirm shaft length for your transom and motor mount, set up charging and tiller options if needed, and rig it for quiet, fuel-efficient low-speed running when the wind quits.

Why does my outboard run rough after sitting over the winter?

Ethanol-blended fuel that sits through a New England off-season absorbs moisture and leaves deposits, which is a common cause of rough running and hard starting in spring. We clean the fuel system, check for water separation, and set up stabilizer so your Tohatsu is ready to run when you launch.

Do you winterize and store Tohatsu outboards?

Yes. We winterize Tohatsu outboards to protect the powerhead and lower unit from a hard freeze, including fogging, fuel treatment, and gear oil service. We also offer shrink-wrap, indoor, and outdoor storage so your boat is covered through the cold months.
