[Michael Connolly]

Yes, Do the work yourself.  This is not rocket science.  You will be paying yourself handsomely and know how the job was done besides.

Their initial estimate for repair is approximately $9,000. I don’t know if I should laugh or cry. I guess my next option is to find a yard that will let me do the work myself and to see if I can repair/replace the stern tube without removing the engine and fuel tank. Thoughts or condolences are appreciated. Daniel Solitude Mandeville, LA
