there has been a few threads about Sundown recently, just do a search and you will see, not too sure about another Dealer for you, but someone will help out soon.

Sadly she's gorn!!!! There is a new mob opening up called Crew Marine, sited near the old Torque Toyota on Anzac Ave so I understand. They have picked up some of Sundown's old staff. I also understand they will be Mercury/Yamaha, and opening the doors in a coupla weeks

Cheers

Gents,

No offence to the new people who were just awarded the Yamaha dealership, i'm also after my Yamaha to be serviced and want an experienced set of hands on it.

Could anyone recommend an experienced Yamaha technician on the North Side ? I think Keith and Graeme went out on their own although have no contact details.

Personally, I liked Sundown Marine and the folk their, they always looked after us. I feel for the staff who must have got an awful shock when the gates were closed.

Regards,

Rob

Prety sure Keith is now working with Graham Jeffers Motorsport & Marine - Suzi dealers, but service all makes.

I have a Yamaha Jet Ski which is serviced by a guy at Brendale ( he is also a mobile mechanic) - my friend has a 90hp Yamaha outboard on his boat and he says the Yamaha Jet Ski mechanic has the computers etc to service his outboard. He intends to use him now.

If you wish further information then email me and I will send phone number for mechanic.

Hi mate kratzmanns have got the yamaha dealership and they have got yamaha approved tec's i would rather get it serviced by an approved yamaha shop that someone that is working in a shed do you think that yamaha would put on a dealer if thay did not have the right people and tools etc. We are not talking about a small company here we are talking about one of the biggest companys in the world if you are still worried take it stone corner i spoke to a james over there the other day seems like a good bloke.
