Boat mechanic

[Wheelgunner]

Does anybody have a good marine mechanic around Goodlettsville, Hendersonville, etc.?  

I'm having trouble with a 75 hp outboard and power trim on a little boat and need to call in the big guns.

Thanks for any recommendations.

What brand motor ?  Merc, Yama, John/Rudy?

Tilt/trim rebuild kit for your unit off eBay and a YouTube video for the win.

They aren’t real complicated.

It's a '98 75 hp Force.

I appreciate that and might end up going that route if I can't find someone willing to work on it. Unfortunately I've just never worked on one, and I'm willing to pay a mechanic some bucks to get up and running quickly.

sorry Wheel gunner. Can't help you with a Force motor. Don't know any mech's that work on Force motors.

Clark Marine in Franklin is who I use.

 

My friend recently found this guy Gary Dyer 615-542-0542 and liked the work he did. He had to raise his 250 merc to help with hole shot after adding double power poles.

Appreciate all the responses.

Felines, I reached out to Mr. Dyer today.  That was a good lead - many thanks.
