I am due for my oil change for my Yamaha F115 and T8 and was wondering who you all recommend on here in the Portland area as far as price and service concerned. It sounds like most places are around $300 to $360 for the two motors. Does this sound reasonable...
Any input would be appreciated.

I'm not sure about where to have serviced because I do all my own work. I've said this a lot. Why not do it yourself and save the 400 bucks and go buy something new for the boat?
Then you'll also know it's done right.
I've heard some good things about Siglers? (sp)
I've had bad experience with a shop out by Oregon City I think it starts with a C.

$360.00 to change oil ?
I'm in the wrong line of work.
Take care of it your self.
If you your not sure, read the manual.

Most places charge 1 hour per motor plus oil and filter. Labor rates are around 90.00 per hour, 6.00 for the filter and 5.00 per quart on oil depending on what type you use. On top of the oil change they service the lower unit,grease all the joints,adjust cables. I have all this done every winter and it cost me around 600.00 for two motors. I think its worth it when I am 60 miles off shore and still running.

I would reccommend them highly. Just ask them.
They worked on my boat and the estimate was higher than the actual price.
Good Luck
