After a week and a half goes by, we get a call from Diversified Marine.  Do we want to come and inspect the bottom job.  Of Course! So off we go to check out the bottom job.

There she is!

Lookin good!  The guy in charge of the paint department, Freeman, sees us walking into the yard and motions us over to his “office” which is a medal crate in the yard.  His wife had cooked a yellow bundt cake with chocolate frosting.  He said he knew we were coming today and he brought us a piece of the cake.  He was probably lying, but man, that bundt cake was the best!  I can’t remember the last time I had a piece of frosted bundt cake. Yummy!  Anyway, he took us over and showed us how they painted the bow thruster and prop white so when the scuba diver comes to clean the bottom while it is in the water, he can see if he is getting it clean.Pretty Prop.

That guy that Gary is talking to, is the head of the mechanics that changed the timing belt.  He told Gary everything went fine and was no trouble.  Boy, these people are nice.  They just have to touch up the paint in a few places, throw her in and run the engine to make sure everything is good.  She should be ready for pick up the next day.  So we head back home and leave our baby in their good hands.

The next day Gary and I drive to Diversified to pick up the boat.  We look for it before we go in to pay  There she is!  And she’s floating! That’s good.  Better go in and pay before Gary hops in and takes her home.  They had already sent us an invoice so there was no sticker shock when they handed us a copy of the invoice to pay from, but I will say, the credit card was smokin by the time they got done running the charge thru :).

All in all we were very happy with their service and prices.  And heck, if they are going to give us cake every time we bring the boat in for service, we’ll be loyal customers ;).
