Yamaha Mechanic

Post by richdoe »

Anyone know of a good Yamaha mechanic in the East Bay? My old ProV 150 stopped pumping water. I had replaced the impeller and it worked fine for several trips, but suddenly it's not circulating through the motor. Tore it apart again and there were no obvious problems. Now it's above my pay grade.

I'm not sure about Yamaha but I won't take my Evinrude anywhere but Boatmasters in Livermore. They run a first rate operation and I've been burned by too many other "professionals".

I'd take my boat to Boatmasters in a heartbeat, but they don't service Yamahas.

I tried a Google search on Wright Marine and found virtually nothing on the business. No website, no reviews, nothing.

There's a reason for that. If he weren't booked I would be worried! ; > )
