[QUOTE="turbotodd, post: 331960, member: 7376"] Don't know about Merc, 'Rude, Tohatsu, Suzuki, or any others but Yamaha. Yamaha REQUIRES a predelivery inspection form to be filled out before they will register the warranty. If a dealer doesn't fill it out...you don't get warranty. If they fill it out falsely, they lose their dealership and face possible legal actions. There's just too many things that "can" go wrong in that type deal. I guess some dealers could sell the motor to you, you rig it on your boat, then take it back for PDI before you put it on the water, but why? As suggested previously, a couple hours' labor paid to the dealer to rig your boat and you now have a properly serviced/rigged boat & motor and all the correct paperwork, so if something goes haywire, you can't blame yourself. To me, that's worth the $100-$200 in labor. [/QUOTE]
