Yeah, they get into a crunch in the spring and fall.

Mine is actually done, but I figured I'd go for the humor! It ended up being a shift cable that failed leaving the port drive stuck in reverse.

I live about an hour from TC but I have and will keep taking my boat to American custom marine. They are located just south of Port Huron. They know what they are doing. Honest. Communicate well and charge a fiar price. With all the BS I have been through the qualities I listed above are HUGE! Call Mike and at least talk to him.

Talked with John's and they seem to understand what to troubleshoot and correct but like everyone else they're busy shrink wrapping and winterizing. Made an appointment to bring them the boat in early April before they get busy with spring commissioning. Boats home in the driveway getting winterized and going into the storage building next week for the long sleep.

The iceboat prep begins soon.
