Hi folks. Can anyone recommend a good boat yard or diesel mechanic near savanna?  I am heading north on icw between Brunswick and Savanna Georgia and have a dead cylinder in one of my Cat 3208t diesels. I suspect an injector or maybe a valve problem. Currently running on one engine. Many thanks

Try Thunderbolt Marine on the Wilmington River .  Coming North go in via
Wassaw Sound, but watch the buoys carefully.    Huge facility. Used to be
the refit facility for Palmer Johnson.  If they can't fix it, I'd be
surprised.
We had a turbo replaced there a few years ago.  Watch out for the flying
teeth.  Nasty little black fly thang's that come out just before sundown.
Check out Tubby's Tank House Resturant a short walk from the marina.
