We fix what moves you.
Cars, trucks, boats. Honest work, fair rates, and a crew that actually shows up.
Young hands. Old-school honesty.
We started Bay Mechanical and Marine because we were tired of shops that talk down to you, pad the bill, and treat your rig like just another ticket number. We're local to the Shuswap now and we plan on staying that way.
Whether it's your daily driver, your work truck, show truck or the boat that gets your family through summer, we treat it like it's ours. No upsells you don't need. No parts you didn't ask for. Just honest work, done right, the first time.
Behind the bay doors our main men are Hyatt is the young blood — sharp, hungry, and genuinely fired up about diesel work. Jeff has 36+ years of diesel experience, most of it spent at a Ford dealership before going out on his own. Not much rolls through the door that he hasn't already figured out.

What are we working on?
Meet Toby.
Blue Heeler crossed with Border Collie, and the hardest worker here. Two different colored eyes — one blue, one brown — so he can keep half an eye on the parts shelf and the other on the driveway. Find him napping in a truck bed, supervising oil changes, or herding the tire stack back into order.
// Will accept treats. Preferably jerky.
Jordie
Jordie is part owner of Bay Mechanical & Marine. You'll know Jordie from some of his previous business ventures like the Blind Bay Carwash and the Balmoral Chevron. Jordie is also a pilot just like his son Jonah. He gained his love of aviation from growing up on a floatplane base in Vanderhoof, BC. Speaking of Vanderhoof — this is where Jordie and Jeff met some 36 years ago as teenagers, so here we are full circle with Bay Mechanical! Aside from flying, Jordie enjoys traveling with his wife and the quiet times at their acreage. You will find Jordie wherever he needs to be, doing whatever is required — but as he used to own a graphics shop, he will be focusing on custom boat wraps and shrink wrapping.
Jonah
Jonah is currently working towards his Commercial Pilot Licence and spends much of his free time either flying or mountaineering and exploring the outdoors. He's been playing the piano since he was five years old and enjoys taking on new challenges. Whether he's learning a new skill or helping out on the job, he brings dedication, attention to detail, and a willingness to work hard. Jonah can be found helping out in the office, detailing your cars and boats, as well as doing minor shop duties.
Kadence
Kadence is just finishing her Bachelor of Psychology degree and planning to do her Teaching certificate. She'd love to remain in the Shuswap and teach elementary school. Aside from school, Kadence loves to travel and loves her horse and cat Tony. You'll find her helping in the office as needed! Be nice… she's a sweetheart!
We live here too.
We're not just fixing engines — we're the ones out on the lake with you on the weekend.
