Is there a sticky thread or vendors recommended on here for boat maintenance in DFW? I'm a new 2017 Nitro Z18 owner and would like to have the motor inspected/serviced by a professional. It has a Merc OptiMax 175 Pro XS 2-stroke and I was told there are ~70 hours on it.
Would prefer someone within 30-45 minutes of Irving, if possible.

If you didn't buy your boat from Fun n Sun, I wouldn't touch that place with a 100ft pole. Same with Bass Pro.
When I lived in the DFW, I would pull my boat from Fort Worth to Rockwall Marine come maintenance time.

Best question might be "where not to go".

Thanks for the input so far! I may just have to make the trek to Rockwall Marine if there isn't anything else reputable that's closer.

Agree with the take here on Fun N Sun.
