About

Donate a marine generator

Generators are often replaced during a refit even when they still run well. A marine generator with its sound shield and panel has steady demand.

What we look at

  • Make, model, and kW rating
  • Hours and service records
  • Sound shield, panel, and wiring
  • Gas or diesel
  • Whether it ran when removed

Makes we see often

Onan, Kohler, Northern Lights, Fischer Panda, Westerbeke, Next Generation, and Phasor.

Not on the list? It is here to help you find your boat, not to limit what we take. We accept every make and model, listed or not, including rare builders and companies that closed decades ago. A donation depends on the boat's condition and paperwork, never the name on the hull, so enter yours on the form even if you do not see it here.

Questions

Does the sound shield matter?

Yes. A generator with its shield and control panel is worth noticeably more.

Do you take gas generators?

Yes, case by case. Small gas units from houseboats and cruisers are common.

How is it moved?

Strapped to a pallet. We arrange freight from your yard or home.
