Where: Wauconda Marine or Other Repair Place?

[adamkosecki]

Wauconda Marine was suggested to me for my 57 big twin repair,but i cannot find it in the phonebook (whitepages.com). any other suggestions or does anyone know the number there? anyone live in chicago and want to get paid to get it running? i would bet it would not need more than a couple hours work, it looks brand new under the hood.

You mean the one located on RT 176 in Wauconda IL? Or is it TRI STATE Marine on RT 12?

Adam,<br /><br />I can highly recomend C. Hailing & Sons at 26365 lotus Rd in Antioch, Illinois (847-395-2250) Talk to John Hailing. He and his dealership are Top Notch.

I would recommned Lee at Tristate for service. His number is 847-526-6211.<br />A visit to his place just to look at the "field of past dreams" is worth it. He is also very fair in prices. Have used others but Lee is the best.<br />Frank Signa, 1970, Johnson 100HP OB

Thats where my 200 Rude came from. Same opinion as above. He is one of the few that does work like this. He is very very very busy.

I think I suggested Wauconda Marine. Sorry, they are actually called Wauconda Boat. <br /><br />Anyway heres their web site & number :<br /><br /> http://www.waucondaboat.com <br />Wauconda Boat Inc. <br />Wauconda IL 847-526-2203 <br /><br />I've been amazed at some of the parts he still has stashed away. A couple of years ago I restored a 1949 Johnson HD-25 they were able to supply several parts I needed for the restoration. Also, I know they will work on older motors. While I believe they became Merc dealer shortly after the OMC bankruptcy they were an OMC dealer for many years prior and still handle OMC parts and service.<br /><br />I hope this helps.
