    I need to get my annual service done in Havasu this week (496 with I/O)
    I was happy with the service and quick turn around by Absolute last year but they seem kind of high $...
    Any referrals? :idea:
    Thanks

    You get what you pay for. Seriously. Actually check around on pricing and they are in the ballpark. Maybe on the higher end but you can be confident that they do everything. Even service the trailer and wash down the outside of the boat before you pick it up. Some places might be cheaper but just change your oil. Oh yeah and if you have a tiny problem over the summer and stop by the shop on your way back from the ramp and they are busy.... They will stop what they are doing and help you get back on the water and won't ask for a cent. Maybe a 6 pack of beer. I payed a bit for my service and to unclog my low water pickups a couple months ago but it more than paid for that and the 3 or 4 times I stopped in there for free last summer.

    Very true....I just had my boat serviced at Savage..they picked up and put my boat back in my garage. My wallet screamed when I had to pay them, but when I went to Havasu this weekend and saw the receipt and all the stuff they did to the boat and trailer, it did not hurt at all. It's a once a year service and should be done right.

    I just started a thread about the service at Absolute. They were great. I had BOTH of my motors and drives serviced(drives pulled) and EVERYTHING done. less than $1500 bucks and that included a bunch of other things. VERY reasonable to me. AND a great piece-of-mind.

    Thanks for all the quick tips everyone!
    I called pretty much everybody and the only guys who could squeeze me in this week (I need it done by Friday for my BUYER!!!!) was Prestige.
    Don't want to jinx it - but it looks like the Cheetah is sold.
    I appreciate the help.
