Looking for Caterpillar 3208 mechanic in New Orleans area

[Dwiggmd]

If anyone knows of a person who is experienced working on these engines and can work on them in the New Orleans area, please let me know. Naturally aspirated 210 HP each. No major problems, but just bought the boat and want to give it the once over before taking it offshore

Its Louisiana CAT - price out of my league. 2K just to look at it including $500 for the 20 miles drive back and forth from Harvey. That before any possible work on it and another $500 each time they make the 20 mile drive

If this is not a bad joke,,,, where are you at near N O?
Rite now, Nobody in their rite mind wants to come out. Anybody who does come out, I really don't want on board.
N O took one hell of a stupid hit (dumb shits) on and after Fat Tuesday. Virus hits went ballistic that night and are still climbing (did I mention dumb shits)...
And you want 3208 service now?

What is it you think needs service in N O?

Doesn't have to be right now. South shore harbor marina. no COVID-19 or people for that matter on my boat. But whenever the person is comfortable looking at it, that would be fine
