TOP GUN Professional Business!
The Spotlight: Don’s Marine 2.0
Don’s Marine 2.0 serves as a specialized service hub, moving away from the “junkyard” feel of traditional salvage operations and focusing on the high-tech needs of modern vessels. Their reputation is built on “repowering”—the complex process of replacing a boat’s aging engine with a modern power plant to give an old hull a new lease on life.

About the Owner: Donald Scheid
The driving force behind the “2.0” era is Donald L. Scheid. Don is a veteran of the Florida marine industry who has successfully navigated the changing tides of boat technology.
In the early 2020s, Donald rebranded the business to reflect a more modern, service-oriented approach. Known among locals for his straightforward communication and technical depth, Donald transitioned the shop from a broad retail/parts focus to a specialized mechanical center. His philosophy centers on the idea that a well-maintained engine is the soul of the boating experience, and he has spent years building a team that treats every repower project as a custom engineering task.
Very Well Done Donald Scheid!
