Watch eBay and Craig’s list for those motor parts. My nephews 15 HP Honda, almost new, was to stolen and the sheriff said outboards are being stolen left and right and being chopped up for parts.
Went out to my buddy’s boat on Round lake one morning. Trolling motor and battery were ripped out of his 15 yr old tiller. If youve spent anytime in Hayward you know to keep everything locked up at night.
