A friend just blew his Merc OB and the boat isnt worth the $4000 repair. He either has to scrap the whole boat (88 marshall craft ski) or try to find a used OB. any suggestions?
I have a beautiful 83 200 chrome bore, never been apart and runs like a champ. I bought it a couple of years ago and it sat until this summer, the guy befor me bought it from a friend who repowered, and it sat for 7-8 years. This thing is cherry. The power head is on a 1987 3 ram lower, external trim is nice. I do have the original lower and trim pump.
So true, but most of those motors are run wide open all day long. Some of the vendors want 1k for a power head in a box, and they all need machine work.
