LOTO On-Water Service
Wondering if anyone has any first-hand experience, and a contact/hookup you can send my way, for a top-notch on-the-water boat service guy.

Just need motor and outdrive oil changed. Maybe prevantitive impellar change. Boat is on a lift on the Gravois.

Any direction and contact info provided is very much appreciated. Thank you.

You may give these guys a call. They did the maintenance on my Cafe before i purchased. The guy didnt own a trailer so i believe they did everything on the lift. They are based out of St. Charles but i guess come down to loto to do boats there.

I know Lake Shores Marina, does great work, they are usually pretty busy, a couple of brothers on the 8MM. Good spot for fuel as well.

If it hasn't been done for a while, you should have the drive pulled to check the gimbal bearing and drive alignment.

I would think they would want the boat out of the water to do the drive lube change as well.

What's the gas price now? I'll be bringing over a new boat for service this year!

Was $3.999 today but got in some fresh stuff and its going up in the morning. We are paying a bit extra for what they are calling "marine" fuel, 87 and 93 W/O the Ethanol. What is the "NEW" boat this year? Are you just building your own now.?

I was wondering if you had to use ethanol like the 87 on the street. Glad you have non ethanol. Got a few grandkids on the way, first due in early July. We decided to change our boating habits to something that makes bigger waves and carries more people, so got a Formula coming.

It is in production so should be getting it in about a month. I'll be by to fill it up....
