Looking for recomendations on Honda outboard mechanic. I was doing my yearly check on the lower unit and found the oil milky. Bye the way it's a 1999 130HP

I would start with Waviel Porter @ Porter marine in Woodville, or Parkway Marine. Both are top QUALITY.

The closest Honda Marine dealers are Shields Marina in St Marks and Jacks Boats and Trailers in Perry. Non-Honda Marine dealers would have to purchase/acquire replacement parts from one of these dealers.

Go see Waymond at Jacks, unless you're made of money.

Waviel Porter got my Honda 50 running like new this week.
It would not run at all when it was taken to him.
Dropped it off Tuesday,picked it up Wednesday.
850-421-1490.

Never had work done by Waymond or Parkway but know people that have,they are very satisfied.

I called Jack's and they gave me a round about est. so i took it to them this past Sat. Waymond e-mailed Thurs. ( I'm in Ecuador with no phone service) and had completed the work and $50 bucks cheaper than the phone est!! Thanks Waymond
