Default Boat mechanic who makes house calls?

Can anyone recommend a boat mechanic who could come to my place in Sea Isle to work on my Yamaha 150? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Thomas. I called them and they are setting up a time for me. I appreciate it.

To the Admin, she mentioned they may want to put an ad on the site, so you might hear from them or give them a call.

Hydra Man is on a roll
Default Outboard Repair

Joe at Galveston Outboard Repair in Jamaica Beach. 409-682-6371.
I know he does OMC/Bombardier, not sure about Yamaha.

He's done some general boat repair (throttle linkage) on site for me. Will also pick up your boat and pull it to his shop, and then return it.

Been pretty backed up lately, middle of the summer so that's expected.

Kevin from High Tech Marine came out the next day. He seemed knowledgeable, explained some things to me that I did not know (not a hard thing to do since I don't know much, but it was nice of him to do it), and took care of the needs I had.

I think he is trying to build up his business, so he was able to come out fairly quickly. If any of you need help quickly, I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Thanks for the information.

Oh, and if he does sign up, feel free to apply my referral fees to help in defraying the cost of running this board. I'm just happy to have found it.
