Default Best Boat repair in Rocky/Red Deer/Calgary???

Hi guys

Much to my shagrin, it seems I may have seazed the upper gearcase in my 81 glastron. I need to have it looked at, at least for an estimate. Can anyone reccomend a good reliable boat mechanic anywhere from Rocky to Calgary?

Toys bring almost as many headaches as they do smiles!

THanks

I was going to suggest Cliff as well.

There is a boat shop in Sylvan lake as well but I don't recall the name of it.

If it's a Mercury, I'd recommend Calgary Powerboat, ask for Keith.

Best there is IMHO, and complete straight shooter.

X3 for Cliff at Clearwater marine. He's real good with the older motors like your 81.

Default Cliff

I heard Cliff had health problems. Not sure if that info is up to date. A friend and I have used Darryl the Boat Guy here in Sylvan. He has a mobile shop so to speak. If you still require his number PM me. Also, I just remembered a fella from the Morningside area. His number is posted on a small sign on hiway 20. BEL

Default repairs

I would call Alberta power sports in Carstairs I've got a 6 yeay old boat that no one in Calgary would touch. Bass pro shop gave me there card and they are a small shop. Parts for all makes and models give them a call and get a price for the gear house.

Default Sundre

Dirks Auto and Marine in Sundre seemed pretty good. Just had a repair done there. He works on alot of older stuff. They are across the street from Tim Hortons.

Default Power Boat

If you're willing to make the trip, call Keith at Calgary Power Boat (403-203-1915). Works on all kinds of stuff, very honest and good pricing. Turnaround time if good as well.

If the gearcase is seized, a rebuilt case might be a good idea, check online for sources. The labour on a rebuild will kill you.

Butler Built between Chestermere and Langdon. He did some work on my leg and I found the prices to be very reasonable and service was amazing.
