Would you buy an outboard that was submerged?

[QUOTE="Zum, post: 175549, member: 349"] What type water...fresh/salt? Did he do all he said as in the maintaince afterwards? I don't know much about 4 strokes but I've bought a 2 stroke that was sunk in salt for over a weekend. $400; 40hp suzuki. I got 2.5 years out of it,the main bearing ended up letting go,to big a deal to fix. Sold the lower(the whole thing really) for $250. Guess what I'm saying is at $1500,I'd seriously be looking at it. I do know some people that have sunk theres and after the proper maintaince never had any problems. Again,that is with 2 strokes. I'd be googling 4 stroke submergings,asking marine mechcanics and going on forums just like you are. Seems like a deal...but maybe not/ [/QUOTE]
