Default Suzuki Outboard Service?

Guys I am turning to my friends here I have a Suzuki 140 outboard on my boat and I am in a dilema. The place I used to take it is gone I think. (St. Johns Marine) I try to call them to no avail. Anybody know anything about them, as they were an authorized Suzuki Service center. I need someone who does the yearly service you know lower unit oil and such at a resonable price on suzuki's. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks in advance Tim :grin:

Sportscraft Marina in Oregon City and Magnum
in Clackamas are Suzuki dealers.I had Magnum do some work on my 85 horse(tune up,water pump),waiting for duck season to end before testing it out going after Gaters.No pros or cons toward either of the above.Maybe others who have had more experience and can comment on who's best.

We bought our Duckworth sled at Magnum Marine. From day one it had problems. It was never properly wired from battery to engine to accessories. Their service department was not up front and honest. I had our new Suzuki 10 horse worked on several times and the problem was never fixed. (It always dies on low idle)
There is a reason that they are no longer selling Duckworth sleds! Poor customer service!
