Which Engine?
 

Hey guys, I'm looking at putting a .21 tunnel hull together and I can't decide which engine to go with (OS or K&B). I have had OS before and they are great engines on land,water or in the air.I had a K&B .21 outboard years ago and it also was a pretty good engine,considering it was my first nitro engine and I had to go thru the learning process. I guess my main concern is parts availability. OS is easy to get from local shop or from mail order. The K&B, from my understanding is strictly mail order from the factory and I have not had any personal contact with people who are using them as boats are not big in my area. I am curious about parts availablity,shipping times,ease of ordering,etc. I would like to hear from folks who are running either engine, positive or negative comments would be most helpful.Thanks

Parts are available from places other than directly through K&B, you just have to know where to get them.
One place near you is http://www.randyshobbyshop.com/Boats.htm . In Fort Wayne, IN is www.philshobbyshop.com . Also http://www.precision-boats.com/ Most of them also carry OS engines and parts too.
