Repair event cycle times (RECT) at U.S. marine dealerships remained relatively stable in May, with the average ticking up slightly to 42 days.

• This represents a modest increase from April’s 41-day average, though overall cycle times continue to hold near recent lows following March’s higher average.
• The steady performance suggests dealerships are maintaining service efficiency as seasonal demand continues to build.

The RECT for the main bottlenecks — Warranty Coverage and Out-of-Stock Parts — showed incremental improvement and consistency in May.

• Work orders with warranty coverage averaged 73 days, continuing to be the most significant contributor to extended repair timelines.
• Out-of-Stock Parts work orders averaged 62 days, remaining elevated but slightly improved compared to prior months and more controlled than warranty-related delays.
