Default Ocala/Villages area Mechanic needed

Hello!

I am looking for a local mechanic for general mx issues, oil changes, etc.... I have a large indoor building (hangar) that I keep my 87 KV Scarab in, wondering if somone can make some recommendations?

I am located about 10 miles north of Leesburg (near the Villages) or about 25 miles south of Ocala.

Thanks in advance!

Cool running mon!

We will have to get together...are there any bad ramps to watch out for?

I hear about the no wake zone in the river (St. Johns)

The only ramp on Harris you can launch at is in Leesburg Venetian gardens. St. Johns I put in on S.R. 44 near Deland. Ramp is a little steep but not bad. South on the river you hit a lot of no wake zones. North most run up to Astor than watch your speed. Lake George Is no limit. It's about 18 miles long. The Glen is a big hangout.
