Charleston City Boatyard

Anyone ever use them for outboard service? I’ve got what I think is a fuel delivery problem and I can’t get it solved. I know this isn’t the bulk of their business so that’s why I’m asking.

I’m a huge fan of ChrisV and have used him before but right now I don’t have time to pull the boat out of the water and take it up to him. Charleston City Boatyard is about a mile down river from me and I can be to them and back to my house in 15 mins.

Any experiences you can share would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I’d post my opinions regarding this question, if I had any, but according to the “sticky” above, no opinions regarding local companies are allowed!:wink:

I know your response was intended as tongue-and-cheek but to clarify…

I’m definitely not trying to get on the wrong side of Andy and start a bash-fest. Just looking for someone to say they’ve used them and had a good experience, here’s how it works, and cost is more/less/comparable to everyone else.

No responses and I’ll just assume that everyone is hauling their outboards to ChrisV/Seels/Hanckels/Longshore/etc.

Thanks

have not used them, but cape romain marine offers great service and work and is an easy trip from MP right up 17.

Thanks Trout. I’ve heard good things about them as well. Problem is it requires taking the boat out of the water. Trying to avoid that due to a lack of time.

I talked to a mechanic of theirs the other day and he seemed like a good guy.

i’ve used them to do out of the water boatwork on the brainstorm and they seem upfront and honest. as far as boatyards, they seem to have as good of a rep as any.
