Fisherman 236
Hi forum members!
I recently purchased a 2017 Fisherman 236. It is due for a 500 hour service. I am VERY familiar with doing a 100 hour service on Yamaha motors of various sizes.
Is the 500 hour service beyond the scope of a DIY?

Thanks for your advice.
 
Not a problem to do yourself. I’m about to do 100 hour service at 500 hours on my same boat same Engine. Purchased the 100 hour service kit from partsvu website for $250 delivered.

I perform while Boat is on my lift using fluid extractor to extract motor oil via dipstick tube.
