Hi all, I bought a new boat in March 2004. It has a 5.0L (220hp) carb Mercruiser with an Alpha 1. My factory warranty is for 2 years and expires in March 2006. I just got an offer in the mail from Mercury/Mercruiser to extend my warranty up to 4 additional years.<br /><br />1-Year, $357<br />2-Years, $630<br />3-Years, $840<br />4-Years, $1155<br /><br />I usually don't buy extended warranties and feel I'm way ahead of the game. But with the high cost of engine/outdrive repairs, I'm not so sure this time. I'm very meticulous about performing maintenance, so neglect should not be an issue. The boat is used in fresh water at least 90% of the time and when used is salt water I flush the engine (MST Guardian) and wash down the boat. Do you think I should buy additional coverage past the initial 2 years?
