[QUOTE="OldSailor85, post: 520675, member: 36164"] Where are you located? I thought $125/hr was robbery. $225 an hour? Wow! Glad I can do all my own work. Too bad I'm old and OK financially. Looks like there's a market for good marine mechanics. I was a USCG Licensed Marine Engineer in a past life. A had a classmate that did a bit of work at a marina in Chicago. People would stop him as he was leaving one boat to come look at another. Just oil changes, injector work (diesel), valve adjustments, etc. Pretty basic work, but standing on your head or otherwise contorting to work on an engine in the bowels of someone's toy is not a lot of fun, Especially if the bilge is filthy. The part about the guy driving a $100k diesel F350 is about right. Same guy would want my 2001 Stratocaster for $400. [/QUOTE]
