There's SunSports In Fort Myers but..... They'll never see my vessels anymore. ;)

I purchased my boat at Action in Nokomis but I think they lost there boat sales. Not sure if they service them either.

What's the reason you are taking her into the dealer?

Well the right engine finally gave out on me...I had been nursing it for a year knowing the ECU was going bad and it finally failed. The right engine would run but only in idle and it was very rough...I swapped the plugs and coils from the left engine to the right engine to see if it would follow and the right engine still would not run. So, unfortunately I took it to Sun Sports in Fort Meyers...What was the problem you had with them Murf???

You and your boat will most likely be fine. Do yourself a favor and keep checking in on them and ask for dates of completion. Make sure they know you are interested in getting the boat back ASAP.

Hey Murf, thank for the reply...They seemed very nice an open to what I have done for the troubleshooting thus far...I just did not have the time to swap the ECU's to really make sure that is what it was... I am actually in no hurry and they liked that since they are backed up to a week before they can get it in to look at it. Hopefully I will get it back by the first weekend in August...
