I just bought a new rig fromMid-Carolina Marine on HWY. 378 in West Columbia. They have a good reputation.

I need to take mine in for the 10 hour and some rigging fixes. Good luck.

Second for Mid-Carolina. No personal experience, but second-hand information is positive.

Quality Marine in Batesburg-Leesville is a decent family-run shop. Mid-Carolina is also decent - Johnny runs the business top shelf.

Mid-Carolina in Columbia for sure, but make sure you get a price up front. Some dealers around here are bad about slipping an "Oh we forgot about that, it'll be extra". If you get a price up front you'll be better off.

I bought my Scout from Mid Carolina; Mike the service guy is a good guy. I'd recomend them.

Captains Choice Marine on Hwy 378 in Gilbert (on the way out of lexington has a really good shop, and is a yamaha dealer, on the water should diagnostics from the helm be necessary.

Mike Phillips at Mid Carolina Marine is a standup guy, one of the best I have met so far does what he says, and cares about what he does. My vote is for Mid Carolina

Dittos here for Mid-Carolina!!! They are GREAT folks... very honest and straightforward. Mike Phillips is the Service Mgr and a nice guy... knowledgable too! Lets put it this way... I trailer our rig 3 hours each way just so they handle my service. That should tell you something!
