Hey guys. Seems as if I need a new Lower unit for my Mariner motor. Anyone know of a good source that I can get one from???
The motor is a 1994 135hp 2.5 liter. Powerhead runs great, but somehow got water in the lower unit and I'm being told it's SHOT!!
Any ideas would be helpful. I'm willing to trailer it anywhere in the North East ;D
Thanks....

UNBELIEVABLE!! I have to pinch myself!! I just remembered fishing in the LCI a couple of years ago with a buddy of mine and we teamed up with a fellow boater from NH. I had heard he blew the powerhead on his motor last year and was looking for a new one. I just called him. Turns out it's the same lower unit as mine!!! Can this be true?? He said he's positive and will load it in his truck and come over and install it!! OMG!! See...... good things do come from events like the LCI I'm still in shock!!

It's always good when things fall into place so easily.
