I am looking at buying a brand new boat that is a model year 2001 with brand new twin 2001 150hp ficht engines. I have the following questions:<br /><br />1. Is the 2001 ficht a problem? There are a lot of posts on fichts late 90s through 2000 but not 2001. <br /><br />2. Is buying outboards that have been sitting on a boat unused for 3 years a problem?<br /><br />3. Will I get a warranty on the outboards? The dealer claims yes.<br /><br />4. What other advice do you have?

Who is the warranty from (who backs it) and for how long?

The dealer claims Bombardier would honor it as it is a "new boat and new motors" and that i would be the original purchaser. I think it sounds sketchy at best.
