Can anyone confirm that the mercury 150 4 stroke is manufactured in the US? I’m assuming that might be the reason that we can get it a lot sooner than a Yamaha.

According to the dealer the current gauges are universal so the ones we have should work.

Our dealer does service both motors. We will definitely have to get a quote for switching out the controls and see what were able to do with the insurance company. If it’s only $1000 or so it would be worth it to not have to wait on a Yamaha but if it’s more than that and insurance won’t cover...

Probably not but depending on the cost it might be worth not having to wait until February or later. We are in Central Florida right on the water so waiting that long really hurts.

We’ve searched too and so far everything that says they’re in stock really isn’t. We are in Florida though.

Our Yamaha 150 was stolen off of our Bennington 21 ft this week. Our Bennington dealer says we’re looking at at least February for replacement but only about 16 weeks for a mercury. Any suggestions?

We just broke ours yesterday :(. Can I get your phone number or give you mine so i can make sure it’ll work for our boat?
