Rappahannock area mechanic recommendations?

Post by 12Sail »

If anyone in the Deltaville/ White Stone / Irvington area knows a good mechanic who will make "house calls" to Urbanna, pls let me know? Thanks.

I am in White Stone and used a guy named Grid Michal on my outboard this spring. Seemed very through, came to my boat and was reasonably priced. His number is 804 436 2601. I think he is in Urbanna.

I have some minor issues like depth sounder and knot meter not working, questions about the head to be checked out, etc. Nothing major just a good knowledgeable person i can trust. Maybe "mechanic" is not a good word.

Irvington has two yards that can handle your needs. Custom Yacht Service would be my first choice. A call to John Friday, 438-5563, would give you an idea of cost. Their work is A1. Good Luck
