    Thumbs Up European Marine Service

    Had routine maintenance performed on my 2012 Mercury 225 Pro XS at European Marine on Friday, and Don and Keith did a great job going over my engine and getting things back in like-new condition. Don and Keith found small issues that in a few months could turn into BIG issues that could have left me stranded on the water, and that is invaluable as a tournament fisherman. Guys, if you are within driving distance of Greenville, South Carolina, it is worth it to have “The Master Technician” do your regular service and major repairs. The Dude knows his stuff!

    One of these days I'm just gonna head that way to visit him for the heck of it (and before I die). Him and Rhonda both. Only 5.5 hrs from me so its doable before my wore out body needs a nap (besides the one I get in the van when wife is driving)

    I agree, Don is a first class sponsor and "Master Technician" is a fitting title.

    Yep, and Sherm is no slouch either - I just don't know when Don actually sleeps - I know its not when he's at work, he's always in the lab until shipping time.
