    M+C Marine went out of business last fall. Craig was an excellent wrench. He was one of the very few Master Certified techs in the state of KY. Last fall when I called to get my service work done he was in the process of moving into a new home in Indiana near Patoka Lake. He told me he was no longer going to own a business that he was just going to work seasonal and or part time for someone else. He told me a place in Indiana but I can't recall the name. I read here on BBC in a post a few months ago that he is now running a mobile marine service. I have no idea if that is true or what he does or where he does it...his reputation turning a wrench was 2nd to nobody in the Shepherdsville/Louisville area. Anglers OutPost closed their Shelbyville dealership and moved into the M+C building at Shepherdsville sometime this spring.

    Yeah, Craig was a good guy. He did the work/servicing on my 2009 Etec 250 HO.

    Yeah, ordered my boat from John Newton at Renegade, good ole country boy and he beat out the 20+ Ranger dealers I contacted about my 2018 Z520L!

    I just would rather get my services done closer to home...

    There is also J&R Outboard on the corner of Blue Lick and South Park rd. No idea if the mechanic is any good but they have been there as long as I remember. Ive bought a few parts from them before and they were always easy to deal with.
