Help to find outboard repair service

Hi Am fairly new to ribs and have just purchased my first 6.3 with a mariner 200 offshore outboard, to use as a support boat for our race boat. Can anyone help me find somewhere that will service the engine before we run it up as it hasnt been used for a while. Preferably looking for somewhere fairly close to junction 18 of th M25 hertfordhire. Also does anyone know of anyone who can take a look at the hull? it has had a couple of minor repairs but the gelcoat doesnt match and i think it would be niice to have the whole hull done properly. Thanks for your help everyone and happy ribing......

Barnet Marine can service engines - they were in Barnet but they've now moved further inland to Welwyn Garden City. I guess about 30min from Jct18. www.ribs.co.uk

Would also recommend Kings Marine in Chertsey, which I guess is also about 30mins from jct18. I've done a fair amount of business with them over the years and they've always been very helpful. www.kingsmarine.co.uk
