Good mercruiser / bravo mechanic in Saint Pete, Florida area?

Any recommendations? We just relocated our boat there and even though I am comfortable doing most of the work myself, there are a couple of things I'd like to have looked up with the port drive and rather have a qualified mechanic do it. Unfortunately it seems quite difficult to find good, reliable mechanics that work on outdrives these days.

Any recommendations are very much appreciated.

    I have heard good things from Lands End Marina.

    Thanks, but that's too far from our marina, which is in downtown Saint Pete, we need a mobile mechanic as the boat is not on a trailer.

    Can you drive the boat there or is it broke down?

    Looks like you need to lift it out anyway

    So sorry for the lack of response. Been swamped with work lately. Thanks for the recommendation, but I found and excellent mechanic. Hard Wave Boats, owner’s name is Raul, incredibly responsible, responsive and changed the bearing, u joints and upper seals on my port bravo 3 drive ahead of schedule and for a reasonable price. Highly recommend.
