The fourth one was taken by hurricane Katrina and I am on the fifth one now!
Man!!! Your boating life sounds like a bad country song!!!

Dink, these things happen and can happen to ANY manufactured piece of equipment. I don't give a damn if it's a Yamaha, Merc or Mercedes!! That's a fact. I have a friend with a Yamaha that is down at this very moment. $1500 to fix! It's hard to tell. And if a motor isn't making noise, no one is going to tear it down just to do inspection. The most they would have really been able to do is check compression and look at the oil in the lower unit.
