Built by marine electricians, run for owners and captains
Prism Marine Electric LLC is a licensed and insured marine electrical contractor based in Fort Lauderdale, serving yachts and superyachts across Broward, Palm Beach and Miami-Dade. We were built on 30+ years of combined marine electrical experience in the yachting industry, with a customer-first approach — the opposite of the profit-first mentality imposed by the larger marine electrical contractors.

A smaller outfit, on purpose
Prism Marine Electric was built by technicians who spent decades inside large marine electrical contractors in South Florida. The work was good; the model wasn't. Jobs were scoped to hit revenue targets, diagnostics got rushed, and the customer rarely spoke to the person actually holding the meter.
We built Prism the other way around. Call the number on this site and you reach a marine electrician. The person who diagnoses the fault is the person who explains it, quotes it and repairs it. There is no layer between you and the technician.
Staying small keeps us accountable, but it doesn't limit capability. With 30+ years of combined marine electrical experience across yachts and superyachts, we handle high-voltage shore power and switchgear as comfortably as 24V control circuits — and we hold the credentials for access to every major yard, marina and refit facility in the region.
Most of our work is unglamorous and essential: general maintenance, fault-finding on systems nobody else could pin down, and preparing vessels for 5-year and 20-year class surveys. That's where an experienced marine electrician earns their keep.

Diagnose, repair, document
Call and describe the fault
You speak with a marine electrician, not a dispatcher. We ask the questions that narrow the problem before anyone drives to the boat.
Diagnose by measurement
On board we work from prints and instruments — clamp meters, insulation testers, thermal imaging — so the fix addresses the cause, not the symptom.
Repair to marine standard
Tinned copper, correctly rated terminations, adhesive-lined heat shrink, proper support and clear labeling on every circuit we touch.
Test, label and document
Systems are tested under real load, panels are relabeled and you receive documentation your captain, surveyor or insurer can use.
Ship's electrical systems only
A yacht's "electronics" is really three trades. Bridge navigation gear is one. Audio, video and entertainment is another. The ship's electrical system — generators, shore power, switchgear, distribution, wiring, controls, alarms, lighting and appliances — is ours, and it's the only one we work in.
Anything a wire touches on board
If it draws power, switches power, protects power or monitors power, it's in scope — from the shore power inlet to the galley appliances.
