[QUOTE="Captain Ahab, post: 72845, member: 10"] So long as the Marina is reputable I like it. Much better then purchasing through a private sale unless you get it checked out professionally. Make sure you have them put the results of the compression test in writing as well as the date of the lube change. Will they give you a 30 day (or longer) warranty? Will they install for you? If you can get them to give you a warranty, I suggest that you purchase the motor but let them hold it until you are actually ready to use it - a short warranty is worthless if the lakes are frozen and you never run teh motor during the warranty period. Get the service manual for the motor (you can buy them online from the manufacturer) For $450.00 this sounds like a good deal [/QUOTE]
