I have never met Les of EQ Marine, but on the way to CBGT in Bellingham this last month, steering became excessively stiff so that when I arrived at OConnor I decided to call Les -
He spent over 30 minutes helping with the differential diagnosis of the problem [eventually was old dried grease on pivot joint preventing new grease from entry]/ After the conversation was nearly done and I talked about coming back to his shop after the CBGt in Bellingham - he suggested 3 places for parts and service in Bellingham.
Amazing guy - all along he knew he was going to refer me to something closer and he still offered lots of information. I sure look forward to meeting Les someday.
