Chris you are correct, good technicians are hard to find. There seems to be plenty of backyard guys, but not many who can diag the new engines.

Dang ! I think i need to go to a Tech school and learn the trade. You would think people would be beating your door down for a job that is in demand like that ! This area in the summer is insane for people needing boats fixed.
Plenty of folks looking to do that type of work, but a true Technician is hard to find. Someone who will actually diagnose an issue, tell you what part failed and why. There is a good many part swappers out there, but not many that can actually diagnose the problem first.

From a customers point of view, I took my boat to a local shop for a water pump replacement and recieved great service at a fair price. I recommended the shop to 3 people with “unknown” issues. One took the diagnosis of the shop and replaced the starter himself. It did not fix the problem. The other 2 went with the shops diagnosis and let them do the repairs. Both had unreasonable turn around times(more than 2 months), returns to try to get it right, and both still have the same problems. I agree, I believe the diagnosis to be the most important part of the repair.
