Hey, cspen.......Been getting my parts there for several years. I couldn't believe how good the prices were compared to the marina's, and especially how helpful the mechs and members were. It's a great place to troubleshoot your outboard or any other problems related to your boat. Good luck with your project.......post us a pic when you're finished.Originally Posted by cspen

Here is another good site for just about anything pertaining to a boat. http://forums.screamandfly.comOriginally Posted by cspen
They are in the process of upgrading the site right now but once done its really good. Once a member (free) this site gives a pretty good discount on parts. http://www.rickracers.com/ Most these guys are into racing boats, so they know them pretty well from the keel up.
