[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]Since Minn Kota and Motor Guide don’t have any repair centers in Utah (the guy in Bountiful retired a couple years ago), there doesn’t appear to be any place to get one repaired/serviced without spending more than it’s worth to ship it out of state and back. I’ve talked with Fred’s Marine, Peterson Marine, and Robertson Marine and none of them have any local contacts for this type of work. So I’m putting it out to the local fishing community.[/#800000][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000] [/#800000][/font]
[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]Do any of you have a contact of any local person that has the skill, the knowledge, and the desire to do this kind of work. The Minn Kota PowerDrive (12v, 48” shaft) w/ copilot on my 16-foot Tracker quit on me a couple weeks back and I replaced it with a newer PowerDrive V2 (54”) and upgraded to iPilot. If I could find a local person to repair the old one at a reasonable price, I’d get it repaired and sell it on KSL. New ones run about $600.[/#800000][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000]If you know of anybody locally that works on these, please let me know.[/#800000][/font]
