Don't take your boat to Sunset Marine, a.k.a. Outboard Salvage, in Pensacola. Took my boat in for an outboard check up and got it back unusable. Never had a problem with leaking oil, got it back leaking a lot of oil. Water pressure gauge was working, got it back not working. They changed a relay switch for the tilt, wasn't having a problem with the tilt when it went in, and the other switch casing looked melted when I got it back. Grease and oil all over the motor and back of boat when I got it back. $400 bill to get an unusable boat back that only went in for a check up, now I have to take it somewhere else for repair. Don't take your boat here for anything. Do a thorough online review search on this place, I did it too late. Reported to BBB, no reply, no refund, nothing.

9-27-16 update: took my boat to another mechanic, he said that the "work" Sunset Marine claimed they did, they didn't do. Impeller was never changed because it showed wear. The foot oil was never changed.

Took my outboard motor to him cause it wouldn't run. He tells me it's trashed and he would give me $300 for it towards trade in on a used engine he had for sale. Next day when I go to pick up my boat I see my old engine for sale out front priced @ $1500 with a sign that says " runs great". Apparently there was nothing or just very little wrong with my engine. He got me, don't let him get you too!
