    I talked to Lake County Watersports at Wauconda at a recent fishing show. The estimate the fella gave me was very reasonable. I've read a few good reviews about them.

    I'm interested in any suggestions as well,
    however I'm down south in the Joliet /
    Plainfield area.

    I purchased my F25 at Jerry's, over the
    border in Beloit. They were good to deal
    with for the sale, dunno know how their
    service is.

    I don't have any current need, just wanna
    be prepared if something comes up.

    Check out Bedford Sales in Morris. They can do Yamaha work.

    Even Keel Marine in Rockford has always treated me well. Bought my SHO with them and they have performed most of my service updates since 2010.

    I have had my boat worked on by Even Keel Marine once last year and will certainly consider them again. The downside is I'm a solid hour and 20 minute drive away from them.
