Looking for a Mechanic

Post by Scalp Em »

Hi All,
I'm looking for a shop that can fix the tilt/trim on my Johnson. I have been to Parkway Marine a few times with a few boats and while they do great work there, I was not entirely pleased. I am a student and am looking for any feedback or advice about a place that will get the job done right without breaking the bank. I've heard great things about Mike's and Porter's.
Thanks In Advance and Go Noles
PS: I'm not a raccoon hugger.

Shields Marina in St. Marks can work on Johnson Outboards. The service department is closed Sunday and the marina is closed on Mondays. Give Dennis or Tim a call at 925-6158.

If your not going to Parkway ... then Porters.

Picked up from Porter's on Friday, had the boat out yesterday and everything worked great. Work was done in less than a week for a reasonable price. Thanks for the advice all!
