Electrician in / near. Tarpon Springs / Tampa / St Pete?

[Buccaneer]

I have lost confidence in the guy now doing the work on my boat in Tarpon Springs. So I’m looking for an electrician to help with the next phase of things. That can include designing and installing a new battery/inverter system as well as just going through everything and checking the system monitors relays.
Any suggestions?

Scott Bickwid. Here on this site as BOATSB. Find one of his posts and PM him. Get in line though. A bit backlogged I think.

He's one of the best for inverters and electronics. Not sure how far he travels, but worth a call. Very knowledgeable and helpful.

Scott’s having the same problem, trying to find someone to fill-in for him on the gulf coast. I’ve been on his waiting list to come over to Longboat for a couple of months now.

Try George Theringer who works from Bradenton. He installed my Victron Inverter and Batteries in 2023 at the same time Scott Bidwick was installing my Garmin autopilot and electronics. What I like about George is that Scott criticized his work and George took the criticism, researched and verified that Scott was right, and made the change without pride or hurt feelings getting in the way of the proper result. So he is a better electrician and man than me plus he charges very fairly for his time..

George's contact is gtheringer@hotmail.com and 941 462 0425.

Please tell him Freestyle is in the Bahamas, all is well, and thanks.

One of my boat neighbors, who owns an Offshore, had a guy come by to look at his battery/inverter system. He’s an electrician for Marlow and is starting a side business. He was prompt and respectful of the boat and seem to know what he was doing according to my friend.
