My 1987 Mercruiser Alpha 1 Gen drive blew last year. New Mercruiser $5000+1-year warranty. Reman Mercruiser $2500+1-year warranty. NEW SEI $1295+SEI 3-year no-fault warranty covering EVERYTHING even user faults like no oil & hitting stuff!! From their website:"The three year fault-free warranty covers any damage to the drive that requires it to be repaired or replaced including failures resulting from lack of oil, fishing line, impact, neglect, and other abuse". Seriously!!
I'm considering the SEI aftermarket replacement, SE106. Boat is 87 Imperial 20ft bowrider, Merc 3.0L motor. Mostly we just cruise the inland waterway for extended time at medium to top speed with 2 people; occasionally pull a tuber and occasionally cruise with 4-6 people. Ocean City NJ salt water. Internet searching has found mostly positive info about the product and the warranty service. . Looking for any new & current feedback/reviews/comments anyone may have. Thanks!
