It is for sure worth retreiving..........makes no difference if it was running or not, any decent back yard mechanic can do whats necessary to get her running fine........
Do as others said and Hire a local diver, call the local dive shop and ask if they know a diver that finds lost items..........
I drowned a 40 hp mariner years back...........was running just fine when I sold her 5 years later

I don't mind diving in if I have to once I hang on it, but snorkeling around ain't my idea of fun when the water is 60.4 degrees as it was yesterday !!! I have called some divers to see if they are interested in looking for it. Our county "search and rescue" guys will sometimes look for them as a "drill" and not charge to do it. Thanks for the input.....

Be careful involving the county........... If the wrong person finds out you could be subject to clean up fines and a big bill for all gov workers involved..........NOT KIDDING

Couldn't find it with side scan? The operator must not be proficient at using it then. Shouldn't be a problem with my lowrance!

SI should pick it up unless it is totally buried in the mud. I would find another person to SI before you have the expense of a diver.

Cray unfortunately I am two hour drive from there. Cost me $100 round trip in gas and deer season is upon my girls. If he hasn't found it when I can get up there and fish be glad to have a look. Sure I could find it if he knows general area. Hopefully someone else closer can get with him.

If it hasn't been found by next summer when the water hits 90 deg, give me a general area and I will drag cranks over it. Guarantee I can get 5 of 6 cranks hung up in it, especially if it is a windy day.

VERY IMPORTANT!!!!! Follow these instructions. I did this a few years ago with my Zuki DT25. I have a buddy that has scuba gear and he went diving for the motor, found it, and then we got to work ASAP! You only have 2-3 hours before rust starts forming on the cylinders after removal from water. Its the oxygen that causes rust, not the water. If you find it, be prepared to get the alcohol and oil in the cylinders as soon as possible. If the cylinders move freely, and it won't start, chack electrical connections, they usually get unplugged or burn a fuse with the water (my case). and if its a 2 stroke, oil injected, drain the oil and run premix at double oil for the hour. My mechanic said that he would have ran it longer, 2-3 hrs to make sure all water was burnt out. Good luck and I hope you find it... And bolt that thing on when you do find it!!!
