Ok, its been a while since Ive posted on the boards, but I felt compelled to post this topic because it involved one of the first questions I asked about when i joined this site,"where do you get good boat service in Vegas?". Well, over memorial day in Havascrew, on our last day there, I managed to make scrambled eggs out of my drive. Not having time to take it to a place in Havasu, I towed it back to Vegas and dreaded the thought of anyone in Vegas taking care of me. I was wrong! I ended up calling Shane at Offshore Marine and explained my problem. After telling me that my drive was trashed I began filling my bath tub with warm water and looking for a sharp blade to end my boating life! Shane stepped in and realized that I was not going to be able to replace my drive anytime soon as Im sure you all know the cost of a new drive. Well heres where the good service came in, Shane at Offshore Marine agreed to give me a loaner drive to get me back on the water until I was able to gather my funds for a new one! I was shocked! What a great gesture I felt! Well to make a long story short My insurance company took care of my drive issue and as a result and thru Shane's work I was able to replace my old drive with a Bravo XR and a 24 pitch stainless prop! Sweet!!!!!!! Well there was a downside, it took a few weeks to get the drive but I had no problems waiting as we were moving and I was starting a new business so I could not boat anyways. Ive had the boat on the lake, at Mead and it ran Great, better then before!! Plus Shane made some repairs on my throttle and trim button as well as fully polishing and detailing my boat at no extra charge for my having to wait that short time. Anyways, Im not easily impressed, but I must say Im Very Happy! I will definetly go back in the future! Thanks again to Shane and the boys at Offshore Marine Â*http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/Thanx.gif

I think I saw Shane on local TV news being interviewed about a neighbor killing his dog. http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dunno.gif
