Re: The Online Outpost?

summer fun.......omc drives are not made any more.......they are like the old 286 computers.....parts can still be had........BUT WHY???? the alphas...(mercs) and volvos are prooven units and still in production.....why give yourself the headache?

don....can you please elaborate on this?.....(edumacate me?)

you say pre sx.....is that an omc built? and a sx a volvo?

thanks

try the stuart hastings website. Omc's are fine if actually cared for. I think the idea of an Alpha makes me sick. I'm avoiding if at all possible. Having to drop the lower unit to change the impeller? "ayuh" Who designed that?



"pre-SX" Actually, I wrote the that. It was info I was given. It may have been an SX in OMC clothing....

Just for fun, send the text of how the ad was originally listed.

We can then find where they grabbed these pics of ebay or somewhere else. Also, we can most likely find the same scammer trying the same scam in another market.

The ad was flagged and text is not available. Vocabulary was better, not as in reply emails.

Tbear1964..........here's a thought. Get the address where the boat is and get a local marina to do a quick inspection and evaluation. I know that when I purchased my boat in the US a local marina did this even though I was buying through a competing marina. Cost me $100 US and made my continuation of the deal a bit more unnerving.

I wrote on Sunday I emailed for that. It's been 2 days. I don't think he's got me on the hook anymore....

Ayuh,.....

That's what Post Count is all about,....:cool:

Warning potential future Boaters of the Pitfalls awaiting them.....;)

Post count. That's who spends the most time at the computer. ;-)
