Would you buy an outboard that was submerged?

[QUOTE="bulldog, post: 175548, member: 4592"] If you can get the motor for $1500 or under, personally I would do it. I would then imediately take it to an outboard place and get everything taken apart and checked, or do it yourself. You may spend another $500-1000 doing this but if the outboard is worth $5000, you are still making 100% on a flip or you can just keep it for years to come. IMO that is a good deal. Sometimes you have to take a little risk for a big reward. Keep doing the research but the most important thing to me would be that the electrical is sealed. [/QUOTE]
