While on vacation I hit a deadhead and damaged one of my props and (I believe) sheared a driveshaft on my 300 ProMax. I have heard that it takes special tooling to repair these motors and a regular marina probably cant handle a job like this. Is this true and where would be a good place in lower Alabama or the Florida panhandle to have this done?

Thanks, dead in the water for now.....

If you are anywhere near Destin head over to Legendary Marine, they will take care of you.

Thanks for the tip Hillbilly - Destin is only 2 hrs away. Is pulling a driveshaft something a competent but not professional mechanic can do?

You need a few specialty tools and you defenitly need a factory manual, if your talking about doing it yourself and you dont have the tools it probably isn't gonna happen, if your talking about a less then ideal shop doing the work its not the best situation but you gotta do what you gotta do sometimes.
