[Rhodes22-list] Motors

[General Boats]

Rob,

We have all sorts of motors.  The down side:

a)    While they run when they leave here, you are on your own and,

b)    It cost at least $100 to ship them.

If you can't find anything locally, choose your size (all long shafts) and we will give you a price.

The 76 model I have seems to have an electrical problem, the reverse doesn't work, and there is an oil leak from the shaft area.  Plus, it's a Johnson which I'm led to believe is hard to get parts for (something about bankruptcy(s)).  I figure I can get it fixed, but I'll still have a repaired 76 motor.  I asked at the marina about new ones (talk about almost having a stroke, I had no idea how much these things cost!).
