Ordering Parts


Dont expect to walk into your local Marine Dealership and for them to know or have the parts you need. I am not knocking the Dealer but parts for the older boats are hard to keep up with. Some of the marinizers didn't even have a parts book.

If you want to order engine, transmission and drivetrain parts there are a few places online that are knowledgable. Try http://www.skidim.com/ for pictures and help to identify what you have.

Some manufacturers are still around and can help with older boat specific parts. When I refer to boat specific I mean Mastercraft seat skins, Correct craft glove box lids etc. Many of these parts are no longer available and you will be forced to try and match up or make due with whatever you can find.
