can someone experienced answer my question, we dropped off our boat to the dealer we have 35 miles on it and they wanted to charge us $540.00 for the 100 hours or 6 months column in the attached file. Please note this boat is hardly used and is garaged when not in use. The fuel additive etc has been added when needed etc

watch youtube, do it your self.
My question is with the low millage and garaged does it need everything on that list? Not the answer I was looking for bud. Looking for more details.
 
So did you take the boat back home or did you let them do the service? If they did the service then I would think you thought the service was worth it. That said, maintenance is always an owners choice, just like a car or truck, some folks choose to take it to the shop and others choose to do it themselves, and others dont do anything. The checklist you provided is close to what the owners manual reflects but it looks like the dealer has some additional services they do.
Not real clear why you would take the boat in after 35 miles (I suspect you mean hours of use) if your next service was not due until 100 hrs or 6 months, Yamaha calls for them at 100 hrs or 12 months. But if you are trying to stay on top of the maintenance that's cool. But if you take your boat to a dealer expect to pay a pretty penny, most shops around here charge at least $100 a hour to work on a boat. These are from my 2018 owners manual:
