Barney's Marine
Whether you are in the market for a new or used boat or motor, outboard servicing or marine chandlery, come in and meet the friendly team to get the personalised service you have been looking for. There is no other outboard brand like it in the world. Suzuki Marine is truly unique. You may think all outboards look the same, but once you get under the surface, you'll see why those in the know, choose Suzuki Marine.

Our distinctive character is not what you see, it's what you feel better acceleration, better fuel efficiency and better value. When it comes to speed, we often say "give it a bit more". With Suzuki Marine's offset driveshaft you can do just that! It lets you run a larger diameter propeller at a higher pitch, providing better acceleration at any given RPM.
Services
With half a century worth of experience in the marine engine sector, Suzuki Marine has enriched its expertise in building reliable and powerful outboards. Suzuki is well-known for its innovative engineering and the quality of its engines. The New DF300AP/250AP incorporates several new features, the most notable being Suzuki Selective Rotation.
At Barney's Marine, we pride ourselves on delivering the best quality boats, motors, trailers and advice to our customers. Barney's Marine are proud dealers for Horizon & Polycraft boats to cater for each individuals requirements. We believe in tough Aussie built boats, built for tough Aussie conditions.
Polycraft is dedicated to producing soft and quiet riding, strong, durable, and easy to clean and maintain boats purpose built for fisherman and recreational boaters alike. We use a roto-moulded polyethylene construction system to build dual hull boats in one seamless piece.

There are many advantages of using polyethylene in the boat construction process - it is not susceptible to electrolysis or osmosis, never requires painting, is easy to clean, UV stable, and requires little or no maintenance.The low density polyethylene used in Polycraft boats is naturally buoyant and has several times the impact resistance of traditional boat building materials such as fiberglass and aluminium.
It's important to maintain your engine in between services, as well as before and after every outing on the water. Check out our top 5 outboard maintenance reminders to help keep your engine in tip-top condition. Flushing your engine as outlined in the owner's manual is imperative to the longevity of your investment.
Timely servicing is crucial, and with a comprehensive network of service and support centres, our qualified Marine technicians and staff have the expertise to inspect and care for your outboard to ensure it performs at its optimum level each time. Our team will be in touch as soon as possible to confirm your booking.

Big shout out to the staff at Barneys Marine. Holidaying in Maaroom for the week and the motor stopped pumping out the tell tail. Called up and they offered advice over the phone but I didn't have the gear. Took the boat to them and they fitted me in straight away. Fixed the problem in 5 minutes and the advice they gave me over the phone was spot on. Decided to get the impeller changed while I was there - work was great and the price even better. Many thanks for the fantastic quick service that allowed me to get back to my holiday.

Can’t give enough praise to this local business. Very experienced and helpful staff. Maria in the office was great with the paperwork. Manager was extremely helpful with advice. A quick brief with the mechanic on any issues I have with my outboard and I was off. I have history with Barneys marine since 2001. Always a friendly and professional experience. Thank you guys. Great work.

Absolute joke. Booked a time to view and purchase a boat on Friday for Monday as their web site said they are not open on weekends. Drove 6 hours to Brisbane to pick a friend up and travel the rest of the 3.5 hours to get the boat to find out they sold the boat. I never received a call even tho I gave them name
, number and address when I booked the time. Now I'm sitting in my car 6 hours drive 2 days off work to get sorry mate a guy just bought it on the weekend we said we are not open".
Scamers don't use this company. Absolute joke. If the treat people like this buying a boat good luck when

In the last 6 months I have done a full electronic refit on my boat all done through barneys. These guys know there stuff not only looked after all the prices to make sure they gave me the best deal I could get… but the quality of the fitup was second to none. They bent over backwards to make sure I was completely satisfied with everything they did and it was all done in time for a few pre planned trips away. I now have the best reading image I've ever seen in person and perfect bottom and even pinging targets and getting separation at full speed. one happy customer that will always be coming

Only gave them 5 stars because I could give them 6!! I'm extremely fussy with my boat and so pleased I have now found Barney's. Had my motor serviced and it has never started and run as well as it does now. Fantastic service and at a more than reasonable price. Can not recommend them high enough.
