Mechanic in Fort William

Evening gents.

I'm looking for some help.

I'm holidaying in the Fort William area with my rib and it's having engine troubles.

Can anyone recommend a good mechanic or boat yard to speak to to try and get some help.

The engine is a Yamaha F115 if that helps with any recommendations.

Thanks in advance.

Betty

I don't know about ft William, but Stoddart in oban (an hours tow?) are the local yamaha dealer. I've only had brief experiences but they were positive.

A1an very kindly came over this evening for a look at it. We think it's an electrical/sensor fault.
It'll need the diagnostic software to find the fault.

I can't thank A1an enough for having a look at it for me. A true gent.
