Reliable Mechanic in Baton Rouge area
 

Looking for a reliable mechanic in the Baton Rouge area that knows his sh!t and doesn't try to rob you blind.


Thanks.

Precision Marine in Kenner, just outside New Orleans.
Call Mark Boos, 504-469-7463

I know Mark well.
Trying to get closer to home.

Thanks.

Hadn't seen you on here for a while, thought you got rid of the boat.:drink:

Nope. Still have the Scarab and trying to get it back in the water.
I got married and my wife and I had a little boy so boating has been on hold for the better part of 2 years.

Looking like another season out tho unless the lottery fairy is feeling generous! :drink:

Having babies = no extra boat money!

Hopefully I will finish it up by winters end.
I know you guys are doing the TF200 this weekend so be safe and have a drink for me!

Later bro!:drink::drink::drink:

David Wade Marine in Baton Rouge. He has done all of my work and I am in the Dallas area and drive down there

I had heard of David Wade years ago but never used him.
Can anyone else chime in on DW Marine?

Thanks guys!
Chuck

Never personally dealt with him but think I remember hearing through the grapefine that he is high as giraffe p*ssy!!

Now that's funny right there!!!!:evilb::evilb::evilb:

It seems that"s all they have around here.
Just because we own high dollar boats doesn't mean we all have pockets full of cash to throw at these guys all day long.
It almost makes me want to get out of HP boating all together.
Tired of getting shafted every time something needs work!!!:angry-smiley-038:

Come over to Destin for a couple of days and enjoy yourself. Legendary Performance has to past Mercury Racing techs. Sometimes the Experience pays off in doing the job right the first time and not over and over.

Actually I will be in Destin next month for some R&R!

I may have to go check them out.

Thanks for the heads up bro!:drink:

David Wade did me right last summer. He went through both of my 500HPs for under 8K. One top end and the other top/bottom end. Running like champs ever since. If you think the price seems high it's because he's using good parts. Anyone who has 500HPs knows that the top ends need to be bullet proof, since Merc didn;t build them that way. Not much of that bill was labor and not much of the labor was profit IMHO. Very satisfied.

We have dealt with David Wade Marine for around 9-10 years. He brokered an Eliminator for us and did all the maintenance while we owned that boat. He installed hydraulic steering on the Formula we presently own and also has done all the maintenance and repairs on this boat. We have been extremely pleased with everything David has ever done for us and highly recommend him. Just like everyone else in the boating industry, some people think he is high, but like they say, you get what you pay for. Good luck to you.
