I know that in the past I have seen some favorable comments about a mechanic in Tallahassee. I need to have my 150 Yamaha serviced. Who should I use? Name and phone number please.

Pete's the one. I don't have his number handy, but if you call the Sunshine Boat's number, they can give you the number for Pete's shop. I've never heard a negative word about Pete.

Pops & Bailey thank you. I was able to get in touch with Pete this morning and I'm taking my boat to him today.

Pete and Marvin are the Kings of Outboards! But stay away for a while so they can finish up the work on mine!

Their lot was very crowded when I dropped it off on Monday.

Several years ago I took a new Yammie that just say "lost its foot in the rock garden" to Pete. The Insurance guy said to straighten the shaft ,weld the foot and bang out the prop. Well pete got'em straight and I got a new lower unit. Can't beat the service.

Great mechanic, just don't expect returned calls.....much less someone to answer the phone.
