Boat Rigging & Electronics Installation - Trusted by the Pro's
A well-rigged boat isn't just more fun to fish from, it's more effective, more comfortable, and more capable. At Mealey Marine Services, we handle all aspects of boat rigging and accessory installation, from electronics and trolling motors to custom mounts and power systems. Whether you're building out a serious fishing rig or just adding a few key upgrades, our team does the job cleanly and correctly.
Our Boat Rigging Services
We install and integrate a wide range of accessories and electronics for all types of boats. Every installation is done with care, clean wire routing, secure mounting, and proper testing before the boat leaves our shop.
Fish Finder & Sonar Installation
A quality fish finder changes the way you fish. We install and configure fish finders and sonar units from leading brands, including Garmin, Humminbird, Lowrance, and Simrad. We'll help you choose the right unit for your boat and budget, mount it properly, and get it dialed in so you're finding fish from day one, not spending your morning on the water troubleshooting a screen.
Transducer & Mounting Plate Installation
A fish finder is only as good as its transducer placement. We mount transducers and fabricate or install transducer mounting plates for optimal sonar performance, whether you're running shallow flats or deeper offshore water.
Trolling Motor Installation
From bow-mount to transom-mount, we install trolling motors with proper wiring, secure mounting, and correct battery connections. We work with Minn Kota, MotorGuide, Power-pole, and Garmin, and can advise on the right thrust rating for your boat size and fishing style.
Power-Pole Installation
Power-Pole shallow water anchors are a game changer for sight fishing and staying on a spot in the wind. We handle full Power-Pole installation including hydraulic or electric systems, mounting, and wiring, done right so it deploys reliably every time.
Battery & Charging System Installation
Running multiple electronics and a trolling motor demands a solid power foundation. We install marine batteries, dual-battery systems, battery chargers, and on-board charging setups to make sure you never run out of juice on the water. We can also advise on lithium vs. AGM options depending on your setup.
Custom Mount Installation
Rod holders, tackle trays, camera mounts, phone and tablet mounts, GPS cradles, we fabricate and install custom mounting solutions that keep your gear secure and within reach without cluttering your deck.

Built for Serious Anglers
We understand that the details matter. A poorly routed wire, a loose transducer, or an underpowered charging system can ruin a day on the water. Our technicians take the time to do each installation the right way, neat, secure, and built to handle the demands of regular use on Texas lakes, bays, and coastal waters. That is why we are trusted by fishing tournament professionals like Ben Milliken and Hugh Cosculluela as well as professional fishing guides.
