Yes, that's a great marina. Perhaps we'll stop in on our trip south
this fall.

What is the name of the mobile mechanic that works out of his truck
there? He helped us out with a generator problem two years ago and I
was very impressed.

Hard to tell. There's about 8 of them I see there regularly.

While in Iran, I didn't have to press 1 for Farsi, either.
While in Florida, I had to press 2 for English.
It just isn't fair.

If it's the same guy we used, yes. We pulled into Charleston City
Marina two years ago with raw water problems on our primary generator.
The marina desk recommended him and he dropped everything to assist.
Excellent eye for detail, highly experienced and had all the spares he
needed on his truck, including some obscure Groco strainer gaskets.
He's one of these tough wiry little guys who can worm their way into
tight places and get the job done. I thought his rates were
reasonable also considering that he could have charged us darn near
anything he wanted.
