APBA Mercury 15hp

[Mrs blueskyracer]

Rick Keller has asked me to post the following for him:

This motor was purchased from APBA in July of 2009. Rick paid $2500.00 for the motor and $1100.00 for the lower unit. He would sell the motor with lower unit for $3400.00 plus freight charges. Anyone interested can contact Rick by E-mail, rkeller111r@hotmail.com or by phone at 509-993-0145. The motor and lower unit are new and have never been run."

it looks like it has never been on the water!

[Mrs blueskyracer]

It hasn't been run, let alone been in the water! It is for all intensive purposes brand NEW!

Worked a deal with Rick to buy this motor. Looks like my 9 year old is getting a
very nice Christmas present this year!

Gee Santa that is great! Would love to see the face on Christmas morning.
I would probably filled my stocking.

That is great news Chris. At last count we had...
Emily Hutchinson JR, JH
Amy Waterson JR, JH
Joe Waterson (if needed) JR, JH
Justin Pinner would probably run J if we needed him to.
With you guys joining the J program it looks like Region 5 is still in the J game.
Amy and Emily will be doing some testing together this winter, maybe you guys could join us and we will bring an extra J runabout for you guys to test.

Congrats Chris

I would suggest you contact Stillwill to race prep the motor before you race it if it is indeed 'brand new'...........George is very reasonable and the skirt clearance on the 'never been run' Merc 15 motors is very very tight! Just the voice of experience trying to help out! Also it is critical to make sure the conversion kit is installed properly especially the water tubes and driveshaft!

From my observation I believe George is the Mercury Magic Man.

Thanks Matt. I'll get in touch with George, and it is a new motor.
