I found Ray early in 2021 when I needed help with my lower unit on a 2007 Yamaha F150XTR. Rays work was top notch and his pricing is great. I came back to Ray in July 2021 for a needle and seat replacement in the VST. Ray knew what the problem was in just a few minutes on the phone and once again provided top notch work at a competitive price. I keep traveling to Ray because he has earned my trust and is always willing to take the extra time to guide me with any questions I have. If you have a Yamaha or need one, I highly encourage you to speak with Ray.

The BEST Yamaha tech in SWFL. Actually returns your calls, responds immediately via text or call. Rebuilt my lower unit for several hundred less than anyone else quoted and did it in 3 days. I would drive 3 hours to see him if I had to without question. Total true professional, fair prices and great work. I literally couldnt be happier. Thank you Rey!!

Having owned over a dozen boats in the past I have dealt with my share of marine mechanics and finding Ray at Franzen Marine was a refreshing experience that has restored my faith in the marine outboard technician field. Upon having my 500 hour service performed on my Yamaha by Ray I was impressed by his knowledge as well as honesty. What a refreshing experience to have a true expert in his field available to keep me running trouble free. Keep up the hard work Ray!! You are going to the top of your field if not already there!!

Ray was top notch, told me what he was going to do and how long it would take. His prices were reasonable and his word is impeccable. I highly recommend him! Captain Danny Logue, Connection Charters.

Ray is a great Knowledgeable Yamaha guy. I shipped him my lower and he had it tore apart and parts ordered same day. He let me know he found wrong and had it fixed quick. I highly recommend him.

Professional and super knowledgeable! Yamaha Guru
