    Default in search of a boat mechanic in my area ??????


    I am looking for a trustworthy mechanic in my area. I live in the Petit Jean , Arkansas river valley region. I recently used a mechanic in the plainview area, after waiting three months longer than I was promised and paying more than double the original quote less than satisfactory is an understatement to my experience!!!! I've recently purchased another boat and after running it a couple months its running a little rough at an idle its only a couple years old so im not worried im sure it just needs a tune up or carburetor adjustment or something minor but I don't know who to take it to, any suggestions???? ,

    NEVER EVER use that a-hole in Plainview. He kept a friend of mines motor over 10 yrs. He got it back but it was never worked on. Lester Mashburn in London is da man. About half price too.
    It ain't nuttin but luck.
