Best bet is to get in touch with an outlet that deals in old RNLI outboards. Would suggest contacting them for the dealerships through their web sites or a contact through here.

Craig, I had a quick look at an Adtrader today there was a few advertised, there\'s a place in pallion might be worth a look

[craigyboy]

Cheers keith ill have a look.

[craigyboy]

still looking

Their\'s a place at Easington Village near Peterlee called \"boats r us\" who normally has a few secondhand outboards in .
Might be worth giving him a bell, he normally advertises in the yellow paper.
He sells secondhand boats and engines from his garage / garden at the back of his house.

Just thought I\'d mention.

Craigboy, My mat has an imaculate Mercury 65. Its old but has low hours. It sat in a garage for yonks! hence low hours. Steve rebuilds them, he was going to put it on his own boat, but decided the extra 15hp was not wort the effort, so its up for grabs at about the money you want to pay, runs like a sewing machine. Only draw back, its in Colchester Essex, dead easy run from the NE, my partner comes from Hartlypool, we do it in 5-6hrs on a good day. Just a thought, if you want one now? :P
Email me if your interested and I will put you in touch.
