Where to service my Optimax 150?

Can anybody recommend somebody a trust worthy person / company that would be able to service my 2004 Optimax 150, ideally located central Solent / Camberley area, that wont rip my arsm & legs when it come to paying for it?
Its on a trailer if that helps.
Thanks
Waterbouy

you will need someone who has the diagnostic reader or laptop to check on hours (if you keep a check) and any faults that may be on the obm, on those obms you could drop a cyl and probally wouldnt notice it except that it wont go as fast.go to either the barrus web site or the brunswick marine web site to find your nearest dealer
