    Why do they tell you they can get to your boat right away when they really have no intensions of touching it for the next 2 to 3 weeks?

    Depends on your arrangements I made an appointment with Concept Marine a couple months ago he said it would be a couple days to complete. I was surprised by a call the next day saying it was complete
    I also took the jet boat in there a couple weeks before that, he had the problems resolved before I could get to my office nothing like same day service

    For some kinky shops it loads up the shop with biz {unsold labor time} so they can pick and choose the jobs they want to finish and keep cash flow going at customers expense- good shops use this down time to order parts{but that is rare}
    selfish and unethical at best-industry needs more {good} competition-
    there are good shops out there, keep the faith

    To answer your question, no, not all.
    Sorry to hear about your problems. If you are in So. Cal, I recommend B&D Marine of El Monte. Family run business for over 15 years. Brian and his family are simply the best!!! Call 626.443.3721.

    Yes, all mechanics lie. I know where you can get a great deal on a DCB though...
