I have a problem with the outboard of my boat, something with the gears. I'm looking for a mechanic to take it to or one that can come and have a look at it. Anyone have any suggestions?
The boat is in the water in Hull Bay. I don't have a trailer, but it runs so I could take it anywhere.
Thanks!

what type of engine?. what seems to be the problem.? Will it go into forward, or reverse? it might just be a shiftng cable

Thanks for your response!
It's a Yamaha 40hp. I just got this boat, and I would like it to just work. I tried a couple of things, but it doesn't seem to help. I really don't want to waste more time trying to fix something that someone else may fix in 30 minutes... So if anyone can recommend a mechanic/repair shop, that would be great... I was thinking of taking it over to IBY.
Thanks again.
