Engine service

[shawisland]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a service center for my Volvo diesel engine in the Anacortes/Bellingham area that is accessible by water as my boat is moored at my home in the San Juan islands?

Can I pile onto this thread? I'm looking for a Volvo Mechanic closer to Bremerton as we just crossed 50 hours on our C28 as well. I just sent an email to Costal Marine as they're the only ones that come up when I search but they're in Ballard and you have to go through the locks which I didn't really want to have to do. I believe Matt over at BYS has a list of authorized mechanics.

For your area... I was at the Cutwater Rendezvous last weekend and Nat, who has a C30 also moored on San Juan Island, said he uses a guy on Lopez Island. I don't have the mechanics contact info though.

I have used La Conner Maritime Services for engine maintenance and liked what they did. The service tech came to my boat, which is home based in Anacortes. He spent time with me answering questions about the Volvo 200hp engine and it was an educational experience. My cost for servicing was reasonable, too.
