    Jesse,

    I haven’t owned the boat with the Zeus pods for a couple of years now, but the only techs I was able to find are MarineMax in Jacksonville, and Cummins Service in Jacksonville. I know there is a MarineMax in Savannah, and a Cummins in either Savannah or Charleston, but I don’t know if either of them has a Zeus tech. This was the most frustrating part about owning the Zeus pods, a real shortage of techs who understand them.

    Cummins-Jacksonville (904) 378-1902
    MarineMax-Jacksonville (904) 338-9970

    Good luck!

    Thanks Bill. Truly appreciate the feedback. I am going to share all this info with my local tech and discuss it with him. I learned a long time ago to leave the wrench turning to those with skill. Yes, I know it’s insane to own a boat without having good mechanical skills, but I love boating and made the choice to buy a boat knowing it would mean paying others to do things that others find simple.

    Phillip,

    It’s a thought, although I am just about the worst mechanic on the planet. I think I can get my local guy to handle this though. He’s been around marine diesels for decades.

    Thanks Phillip. Actually we have only 1,025 hours on the engines, not 2,300. And the boat sat unused for almost three years, so only really 4 years of actual use.

    Point taken about Cummins techs. We have Cummins in Savannah and Jacksonville, but at the time we needed service we were close to Jacksonville. Both locations have only one marine tech each, so not too many options.
