Hmm... ok. I'll try it this way...

Does anyone know of a reputable Johnson Warranty Service Department in a reasonable driving distance from Tallahassee.


Thanks in advance.

Jumptrout will be able to tell you something about Don's. But don't expect him to reply before about 3:00 p.m.

Both Advanced Marine "Medart" and Mike's marine "Panacea" do very good work :thumbup: don't know about those in Tally :beer:

PS: Not sure if Mike's does Johnson work any more :beer:

Mike's says they don't and says Advanced isn't certified yet. Don's or Shields in the immediate area.


:-?

Check with Advanced before taking a competitors word for them not being certified ;-) :smt004 :beer:

Don's Boats located on Hwy 20,Tallahassee in the former Bellflower Boats building is certified and does Johnson repairs under warranty. Ask for Chris. He has been a Johnson/Evinrude mechanic for years. He's as good as Wayviel.

I will not take mine to Don's. Been there, done that. Don't even want the t-shirt. :smt013

I have heard good things about Shell Island, but did not realize they were an Authorized BOMB dealer/shop. I have heard good and bad about Shields, but never dealt with them. I had planned to give them a shot if anything went wrong on the ETEC. I am in the same boat as you.
