New Bern,NC Diesel Mechanic

We have some issues on our newly purchased boat. Fuel leak, tachometer issues. We need to move her to our home port in Delaware. Any references for a good diesel mechanic would be most appreciated.

Coastal Diesel is awesome and just around the corner in James City... across the Trent River.

Deaton Yacht Sales in Oriental is also great.

Thank you for the references.
We are heading to our boat this afternoon, 5 hour drive.
Looks like we are going to do some filter changes, oil change, and possibly fix our leak.
Hopefully we can go this alone...
If not knowing their is help close by brings me a lot of comfort.
Wish us luck!Click image for larger version
