Ky Boat Shop in Paris

[Firefighter215]

Took my boat to KY Boat Shop today to have a Lowrance Elite 7 HDI installed plus a few other things checked and fix. Other places ( Stokleys, Anglers outpost) wanted 200-300 just to install the Lowrance unit. Ky Boat Shop did everything for 220. Good work and very helpful. I just figured I would throw there name out there for anyone looking for work. I would recommend them and I will be going back for anything else I need done. PS If any of yall have any tips on setting up the lowrance unit the help would be greatly appreciated. Like my buddy said, " You setting that thing up will be like a cave man starting up a computer".

I thought Lowrance might have an emulator for that but I just went to their site and it looks like they've quit making those available. There's some stuff on Youtube that might help you out. I'm sure there's good info to be had over at Bassboatcentral on their discussion boards.

Yea I have probably watched every video on Youtube of the elite 7 so hopefully Ill have good service when I actually start to set everything up. Thanks fellas

I also take my boat there every year to have it maintenanced. Scott was the owner, but moved to start a business in western ky... I was curious how it'd be under new ownership but the new owner, Eric is very knowledgeable and has 14 years in the marine business and is certified through mercury and a bunch of other certifications. I was very pleased after taking my boat to him this year. He changed the lower unit oil, replaced all spark plugs, replaced the fuel line, repacked my bearings, put a speedy seal on my hubs because I'd been losing bearing grease, and fixed my brakes on my trailer, i'd been having problems with the brake housings on both sides loosening up and he discovered it had the wrong size brake pads on it all along, he ordered all the parts, put new pads on and tightened my brakes back up, he did all of this work, labor included for $450. I thought that was reasonable and he did a good job. He also gave me a boat shop tshirt trying to get the name out. I am not affiliated with the business at all, but I would highly recommend taking your boat there.
