    Motorguide service center

    Looking to see if anybody knows a local place that does good work on a Motorguide trolling motors.

    I know we have Jones on the site here but the shipping costs are a killer.

    Looking at Motorguide site does not really come up with any results juts dealers .

    Thanks

    Thanks for the ideas so far .
    was hoping to drop something off local if possible, without having to drive too far .
    Seems like most of the places are at least 1.5 hrs or more away from me .
    I would not mind shipping if I knew It could make it there and back safely and I could find a nice trolling motor box.
    The one I need repaired was bought from a member on here .
    It ended up broken and the lower unit needs to come off to run a new power wire and a couple other parts need to be changed in the head.
    The motor must have been dropped on the head to casue the damage .
    Wish the guy I bought it from would have cushioned the head better or helped me out but when I told him what happened he was like , that sucks .

    Had the entire lower unit of my Motorguide Xi5 replaced by them last spring. They did a great job at a fair price.

    Thanks for the info.

    That looks to be about 1 hour away which is pretty good.

    Since you said they did quality work at a fair price I will have to check them out.

    Appreciate the suggestions , have a few places to check out.

    Thanks guys
