    Can anyone give me the name of a good boat mechanic in Western Arkansas?

    I need to have the steering cables replaced on my Skeeter and the dealerships want extremely high prices. Does anyone know of another alternative? I dont know enough about them to do myself. I live in Charleston and work in Ozark. Thanks

    Are you changing just cables or going to a new helm and cables. Labor also depends on if yours are "frozen" (labor longer to get out) or just stiff. Usually 2-3 hrs labor for a complete remove and replace. Don't know what the dealerships are hitting you with.

    If you're within driving distance of Mt. Ida, Gwenn's Boat Repair has done me fairly in the past.

    See ya
