Thanks for all the replies. I guess I'm feeling better about the ability to
get parts in the future. The internet sure helps. Don't laugh, but I
actually don't need any parts at the present time. The boat is perfect. As
it's been in the family for 34 years, it has great sentimental value to me.
If it wasn't in such good visual condition, I probably wouldn't care. It
would be a shame to have a boat that looks like new, but can't be repaired
because of a lack of parts. I think, based upon your replies, that my
mechanic is a bit of a doomsayer. Thanks again. This is a great OMC
network.

ebay. It beats having 2 boats hanging around ( I should know ). Getting the
Evinrude boat parts is
