Willy, yep, my motor threw a rod right through the case.

Hey, what about buying a motor from Skools?

Willy...man I feel bad for you right now...gut-wrenching to be sure...but I know you'll dig in and find the right solution...

If you want that 200 that Spare mentioned, I'll bring 'er up to you...

Hey MJ...what became of the Yam you took off yours recently?...that was a pretty good motor and shouldn't be too heavy for Willy's boat...

MJ does have a certain knack for comin' up w/some good used OBs...

The best thing about new...WARRANTY!!...

You'll be throttlin' up soon...I'm pretty sure about that...

Could be a good motor, but there's no way to tell for sure; also doesn't say how many hours are on the engine and even if it did, it's difficult to know whether or not the guy is telling the truth (yes, I've become cynical concerning these matters). Also, I think Willy needs a 25" shaft motor (this one is 20"). Guy wants $3500 for it. If I were Willy, for that kind of cash, I'd go the rebuild route and at least try to get some form of a warranty for the work.
