Modern motors <'TK><
No, we work on Modern motors as well ... Our passion is vintage stuff post war through the 80's Really the 50's stuff is our preference ... Just completed a total overhaul on a 1996 15 HP Evinrude ... We rebuilt a 1999 Yama 25 HP a couple of months back ...
We have a lot of business primarily the 50's OMC's There is a lot of them still out there and I stock a lot of parts ... But between walk in's and my restorations I stay behind all of the time my AOMCI Club Partner Helps out usually 5 days a week I don't have to advertise, They find me ...
We really like to stick to tiller motors not remotes .(With steering wheels) Tiller motors we can bring in the shop ... Plus since I have lost pretty much the use of my left arm and my age I can't maneuver around under consoles and things like I use to ...
Now as far as parts Tahatsu/Nissan are available ... They are really big especially in Fla. and along the Gulf Coast. There are no Dealers real close to middle TN .. There is a distribution and internet sales in West TN. Near Jackson I think and a web sales near Cookeville.. And I believe there a dealer or two around the Knoxville area. Go on line and check these out ... ... ... I can order Sierra, Merc, OMC/Bombardier, Yama parts direct... and some Tahatsu/Nissan via Sierra ... If you are going cruising at the boat shows for a motor ... I would keep the major brands in the back of your mine ... Where dealers and parts are readily available <'TK><
