Well, its official....Seems we spun the main bearings on the crank. I am sick with the thought of only having my V since May and already having to repower. This is a classic example of someone getting the screws put to them buy a dealer. I was told that all I would have to do is put spark plugs in ever year and make sure and change the oil and it my motor would last for years to come. What they didnt tell me is there was no self oiler system hooked up nor did I even have the small reserve tank on the motor and not knowing what to look for, I never had a clue 

. I know I shoud have taken it to a mechanic to be checked out, but I didnt and thats my expensive lesson. Its a shame that there are people in this world that will turn a life long dream of buying your first boat into a nightmare just to put a little cash in their pockets

 . We may be down, but were not out, I am looking for a 150-200 yamaha (hopefully something that is compatible with my old controls) to repower. I have about $1000 saved at this point and am adding to that weekly. If anyone knows of anything like that close...From somebody that can be trusted... Please let me know. Thanks guys
