Know a sailboat handyman north of Chicago?

OK,
My hands are up.

I've got plumbing issues on my boat, and don't think I can find the time to take care of them.
I realize this will cost me, but I've reached the point to say 'uncle'.

Anyone know of a good, reliable sailboat 'freelance' mechanic that would service a boat in Winthrop Harbor?

(Skupper connection fittings under cockpit need replacing, skupper hoses need to be run to the new seacock I put in last fall, raw water intake line needs a strainer mounted in-line)

I realize that all these projects are do-able by me, I'm just too darn stretched between work, kids, home improvement, coaching, etc.

Thanks.

Call West marine on North Ave in Chicago. The manager is/was a sailor and he does some work or could refer you to someone.
