Outboard Servicing- South Yorkshire recommendations

Hi All,
Had a go at servicing my suzuki 15hp 2 stroke and have found the gearbox oil is a milky green, therefore guessing a seal has gone. Any recommendations for an honest and reliable establishment to rectify and complete the service within South Yorkshire??

If it’s a warranty job, your nearest Suzuki agent is Central Marine in Ilkeston. You could try Eddy at Beeston Marina, he’s a top bloke. Or the guy that Jeff recommends, I don’t know him, but I’d trust anyone that Jeff does.
