Incorrect description
April 25, 2026

Ordered a Prop sleeve bore under the understanding that it would fit my outboard based off of the items description but it was too big. Message printed on package states that it's not returnable if opened. The only way to determine the fit was to open and slide it up towards the bore. Money wasted

Boats.net has a lot of parts at decent prices. Fast and free shipping, if over $150, which isn't hard to do when you're buying boat parts!

The Right Part at the Right Price.
April 24, 2026

The OEM key switch failed and the motor started in neutral on its own. Scary to say the least. I didn't want to mess around with an after market key. They had the Right Part in Stock ready to ship. I'm back on the water with peace of mind.

Getting the boat out of winter storage and tuning it up, i found a missing gasket on the engine airbox. The boat and engine are 26 years old so parts can be problematic at times. The engine is a Mercury 2 cycle, 3 cylinder, 40Hp. Got the part number from Mercury and started around to my usual local part suppliers. Nobody had them in stock but could order them from the factory and have them in 10-12 days. I had checked Boats.net and their price was a little better than my local suppliers and their delivery promises were a bit more optimistic than ordering from the factory. So I figured what the heck, I'll give Boats.net a try.

I placed the order the morning of March 23,2026 and it was delivered at 8am on March 26,2026. Needless to say, I was impressed! Especially that it was delivered by a man in a nice, new Cadillac.

I don't think Boats.net would want me to hold them to that level of performance on every order but it was outstanding. The order was for $5 worth of gaskets and they could have just as easily slipped them into an envelope and put a postage stamp on it. Instead, the impression of their order entry and processing system this order gave me is that I will have no question about using them again and recommending them to others.
