$1300 but I had problems that were fixed including impeller housing (RIPOFF) all spark plugs (platnium) wires, belt, steering cable, and some other minor items.

50 hour ran me $500 and change, but it was the problem found when they pulled the drive that was the good thing as Mercury paid for $1,400 in repairs that needed to be made to the bellows, gimbal bearings, u-joints and such, while I was outside the 1 year warranty.
Make sure you have them pull he drive as this appears to be a consistent problem due to a faulty bellow seal.

aobut $1200 for twins including two pump repairs due to sand gouging the housing plates. Oh. and a water flow sensor (110$).

JUST GOT BACK FROM THE BOAT SHOP 300$-SERVICE 3 AX TRAILER & NEW SEALS :cry:
That beats being stranded alongside a deserted highway in the middle of the night with a bearing welded to the spindle and no wheel in sight!
Right? :wink:

Actually, I am lucky. My wife understands the important stuff like that and doesn't limit me. It's the fun stuff that she doesn't understand. Headers, roller rockers, RayLar kits. You know.

In my case, she says hers NEEDED the AIRAID, FLOWMASTER, 3" drop, Auto-Ride suspension, and 22" chromes. Therefore, I have a few NEEDED items coming up. ;)

I spent $800, but he found that the motor mount nuts were loose. He said it was a Nordic thing. Those bent washers were there usually used were not there. So he fixed that problem and re-aligned the motor and drive.

Better now than the other side of the lake! Sounds like money well spent.

Where did you take it Money Pit? Not Bunky?

04-23-2005, 01:37 PM
No.. A place in Simi. I heard about Bunky.

Ultrafied

Actually, Bunky is pretty good. Good mechanic. A little rough sometimes, but pretty good guy. He's worked on my boats for years. The 100hr is around $350. I will be taking it to Bunky's for my 50 hr pretty soon.

I havent had any work done by him. Family that lives at the landing have used him. Sounds like hes kinda rough around the edges. But thats just the life on the reservation. Family has been down there for decades and it seems everyone develops quirks. Must be the heat! :220v:

I usually never trailer the boat home. For yearly services, he does a great job amd the price is pretty fair. He is a lot different then Jim who used to own the boat shop before. Jimmy was real personable, would talk and just BS with you.
Once Bunky gets to know you, he is really a nice guy, but always business. If you use him for gas and little things, he will definitely help you out when you have an emergency. If you don't use him for the little things and you have an emergency, just kinda wait in line.
It has taken me a long time to get to know him. Next time you're there, go into his office. He has pretty cool pictures of him racing on his wall.

Bunky is a little grouchy untill you cough up a few hundred for a new prop you have to have....we paid around 5 something for the 100 hr service....

Ultrafied
04-23-2005, 02:33 PM
I definitely will. Space 4 here. My avatar is my view from the patio. If you ever up, stop by. Bronco and Doo's out front all the time (boat is in the garage), beer is always cold! Wife is Kelly. We will be looking for you.

I have the boat stored at Campbell near Windsor. I called out last week, they took it out of the unit did the 100 hr. put it back in recovered it, plugged back in battery charger etc. for $285. Not bad for not having to tow or waste a day having it done in Havi.
