MinKota Auto pilot repair / Anglers Choice location???

Post by Big D » Wed Apr 01, 2009 2:34 am

Hey Folks,
The auto pilot in my MinKota bow mount is messed up and (Out of Warranty) Dan at Valley Marine in Yakima stated that they will stand behind (Pay For) any repairs if I deliver it to Anglers Choice in Shoreline, WA. (Local MinKota Authorized service center)
:cheers: :compress: :cheers:

Angler’s Choice address is: 20222 Ballinger Way NW, Shoreline, WA. I live in the Wenatchee Valley. When I punch Anglers Choice address into map quest it shows me a location North of Seattle. Is this correct? Is Anglers choice easy to find? Are they open on Saturdays?
It will involve me making two trips for drop off/pick up but I figure $60.00 worth of gas in my Accord will be much better than giving the money to UPS or God forbid the cost of a new bow mount.

Thanks for any help/information.

Big-D,

The good news is that coming from the Wenatchee Valley you can make it to Shoreline without having to go through Seattle. The most straightforward way is to take HWY 2 west until you hit I-5, then travel South on I-5 until you reach Shoreline and take exit 177. Very easy to find and they are open on Saturdays from 9:00am to 5:00pm.

Less then 1 full mile off I-5 heading East just off I- 5 on Ballinger way in a strip mall store is on the left in the center. :-$
With weather we have light snow right now:brilsmurf :colors: !!! LOL Less then 3 hour run max for you.

Ballinger Way is BEFORE THE SHORELINE EXIT:-$ 1 Exit before when your heading south!:cheers:

Shoreline is the 175th st Exit 2 miles to far south take the Ballinger Way exit store after 1/4 mile heading east will be on the left and tucked in with many other stores.

Watch out for the snow!
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.
