I need a boat mechanic....
« on: September 08, 2009, 05:15:26 PM »
Anybody have reccomendations on a good shop thats not to expensive?  My boat broke again this weekend in Martinez???   :banghead:  I lost oil pressure from 80 psi to 40 psi and have a knocking. As soon as I heard it and saw the guage drop I went back to the launch immediately. 

I live in Lake Elsinore area if that helps.

What all are you looking for, the R&R, the engine rebuild ???   For the engine rebuild I highly recommend Dave aka the engine doctor here on the boards

It's easy to r&r the engine, take it to A&D and have Dave work his magic on it. Or you can pay me and I'll take it out & re-install it for you...

My puny little chevy is getting A and D-ized by Dave as well .
Straight forward, no BS and YOU WILL get what you pay for.
Always remember that when you build a motor that takes a beating like a jet boat motor does.
Even an everyday stocker marine motor.

Taco'd "a person or people that show up with one lake lice and a family of 50 and cram 3 people at a time on it with no disregard to boating rules or ethics. Usualy crap in toilets and throw shit paper in trash cans. Hang out at the boat ramp like its a swimming hole. Have zero insurance on anything they own and dont give two shits less about your property."

Engine Dr.... shoot me a PM with contact info.  I'm not looking to do anything wild, just go through it all and fix it.  So far this year since I bought the boat, I've put a new impeller in it and did other minor stuff.  The guy who owned it before me didn't take care of it.  So it's been a rough season....    :banghead:

Give Mark  (76 Nordic) a pm.

I've sent many customers to him over the course of 3o yrs. for R&R Work.. He is exceptional at his work , never  had
a customer complain about his work.
He is also an Engine Machinest...and so knows the ropes...
Just a thought...Maybe he can help you as well.
Best of luck,
David :)
