Was wondering if anyone has ever used Cabelas to winterize,repair or install electronics new Cabelas just opened near my home and was thinking about using them.
I am kind of wondering the same thing. I found a guy in town that winterizes and travels to your house to do it - for 79.95. I have yet to call him. I don't mind winterizing myself, but changing the oil for me is a real pain. I am going to call him sometime this weekend and I'll give you heads up.
I worry about bringing my boat to these small boat places I was thinking if I brought it to Cabelas I would have a national chain store backing up there work. Also the small guys have a long waiting list I wanted to install a new Lowrance and they told me a 6 week wait to get it installed I found that out or line and did it myself. Hope someone has used Cabelas and can give us some info.
Well, Iv'e winterized my boat before. I am going to be there when he does it. I have a particular way I like to fog the cylinders and I also like to suck up some RV antifreeze into my bilge and pumps. I just thought that using somebody else for the oil change and whatnot would keep it down to an hour or so, instead of the half a day I usually need to spend on it. I got a Honda BF115 and changing the oil on it is a real pain. Last time I did it, I ended up sopping up oil out of the back. I am just trying to avoid that.
As a former Nebraskan it is my duty to recommend Cabela's for all outdoor issues whatsoever. They are a class act. But no I've never had them winterize my boat, but I have worked for them and customer satisfaction is VERY important to them.
