Default 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.?

You may give us a call @ Glencove Marine at the 3MM. We can pull your boat and service it while you wait if you call and set an appointment. You can look around at the new Formulas while you wait!! 573-365-4001

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....
