Mercury Mechanic near Bay Area?

Anyone know of a good Mercury mechanic near
to the Bay Area? I have a 2000 150 carb'd engine
that has always struggled to idle and is really
finicky getting on plane.

Thanks,
Mike

I have two places for ya'...

First choice would be Mossdale Boats in Lathrop. Jerry is phenomenal with Merc's.. I am partial though because all those guys at that shop are awesome people and offer fast service...

There is also Boatmaster's of Dublin, they do good work also but use a Dyno for the engine and don't tend to water test much because of location.

I've owned a 150 Merc XR6 for quite a long time, the merc 150 always was hard starting which is typical for the XR6, I also became aware that with a full tanlk of gas and full livewells it was hard getting on plane.

D&R Marine in rodeo is aggod chioce also.
