But that would involve trusting an American an you know how dicey that can be.

Hi Alan

So how many peanuts do you charge? If you can get me a Beta 35 hp with gearbox and deluxe panel delivered for less than $9000can you have a deal!

We repowered in PV about 7 years ago and paid the duty on the engine.

After spending 7 years in Mexico you have two options INMO

1. Buy it in the US and drive it down yourself hoping that you do not get inspected and related issues surrounding that.

2. Go thru an agent and pay the duty

Good luck

You should get some quotes from Mexico businesses who sell marine engines
