Default Jet Boat service repairs.

Hello all,

Was looking for a recommendation of a place to take my outboard jet to have it serviced and some general repairs.

The outboard is 90/65 4 stroke. General repairs would be replacing fuel line and making sure electrical is good to go, as well as a bilge pump replacement.

Someone had lowered the bow of my boat of its storage block where it was parked (rv storage) and it had filled with water and froze. I would feel better if a professional looked at it.

Thanks in advance.

AB

I do all of my general maintenance (oil, hoses, filters etc) but last spring I needed to replace the impeller bearing in my intake. I ordered the parts from OBJ and once I got into it I quickly realized that I didn't have the tools (or knowledge) to properly pull the bearing from the shaft and re-seat it. I called auto marine and told them what I had going on - they said to drop the boat and all the parts I got from OBJ and they would take care of it. They phone 2 hours later and said only 1 of the bearing need to be replaced and that everything else looked good Gave me the rest of the past back and only charged me half of what they quoted. Any problem I have going forward that I cannot fix myself - the boat will be going back there. Really great service.
