A big chunk of the skeg is missing and the coweling that seperates the prop from the gear box is missing about 2 inches, so all the oil leaked out. If it was just the skeg I could probably get by. No damage to the prop and the boat ran back to the ramp fine but I don`t think it could go much further without oil. It`s an 89 motor but with very low hours, sat for many years when the previous owner got sick. The shaft is 20". Aftwer a few calls there`s a guy nearby that does marine repairs that says he has a used lower unit for $700. Is that ballpark for this part? Should I jump on it while I`ve got the chance or hold out to look around?
