Well, I wouldnt buy one, since they're supposedly not really worth the money. I go more with standard surface drives or out-drives, like the gassers use.
either way, the GTX800 can be had from Hobby lobby or offshore electric, but I've never even seen one on a boat to this day.

edit; but dont get the graupner z-drive either, it cant handle any power.

could go with a RCM S-6(only one), but you'd need a huge lehner motor, not sure what size.

off shore electric is the place to buy graupner 800 . its a beautiful motor and outboards are worth colecting showing and running . so just do it. have you ever seen a colection of old inboard motors . not in this lifetime. outboards are tons of fun .if more of us became interested they would take off. bill payne
