Scam
Thanks: 0
HaHa: 0
Has anyone ever heard of this company? They have a website that is advertizing brand new , never used, 115 HP 2013 model Evinrude Etec Motors with controls and props for $5999.00. I emailed them and they said shipping to my residence would be $500.00 They are from overseas. My concern is that I think to get the warranty , the motor has to be installed by an authorized Evinrude dealer- even though they said it has a 3 year warranty from the day it is shipped, THat is a really good deal if it is leagite.
Anybody got any thoughts on this?
Big River , what do you think?? Is this a "too good to be true deal" ??
You can google their website and see that they have a bunch of motors of all makes listed........
Mama always said, "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is"!
My wife keeps saying I never listen to her....... or something like that!![]()

Yep, That is why I'm looking for input.. My Mama always said the same thing "too good to be true, probably is" Just would be a great deal if someone could verify that they have purchased from them.., Thnx for the input....... I guess I'll just keep pluggin along with my old 2000 model 115 hp Johnson.. It smokes like a freight train but always cranks and runs !!! I run my trolling motor a lot more than the big motor anyway.
I would ask for a few names of customers in Arkansas. If they won't then I would be hands off on that deal . Who pays the tariffs on imports if any ?

Even if it's legit if anything goes wrong more than likely you will be completely on your own. Most of what I buy ,I buy from people...I know them....they know me...
I got a 95 Johnson 115 I'm running. Smokes pretty good too some of the time. As long as you never really damage the block or something it's worth fixing. I have no idea how many hours I have on mine...but it's a lot....besides two fuel pumps just minor stuff.
Check your compression.... If its good you may be having a problem with your oiler if you have the fuel pump oil combo on a carb engine. A mechanic that's good with that motor if its carb could rebuild that and it would still be a good motor,even if it turns out it really needs it.
I'm just a poor boy trying to stay on the water. I get the bug all the time when them boys crank them quiet awesome looking engines on those new shiny boats.But for now I gotta keep fishing my old stuff. I'm just proud it's all working (for now and as far as I know LOL)
