Old OMC Sail Drive Available for parts

I am new to your site. I just pulled a OMC Sail Drive model 15S14M out of my Cal 25. I believe it has a cracked block due to poor winterizing here in Minnesota. It has many spare parts, starter, alternator ect. I hate to throw it in the scap heap. They have not made this motor for quite some time. Is there a need for spare parts for this motor?

Unless someone really needs it, then good on ya for donating the parts.

So doing the world a favor made me laugh. That Sail drive has been a thorn in my side ever since I bought it. Thanks for comments. I have put an add in Craigs list.

What kind of problem did you with them? Did you have problems with leaks?
