Re: title problem ? any johnson/ evinrude outboard owners
My sugestion to you is to copy the serial and model number, while making sure the plate ser#. and mod#., are the same as the ones on the freeze plug, if not, copy them down also, then go down and go to your local sheriff's office or police department and have them run the numbers thru their computer for any current or past history of being stolen. I'm sure they will do it for you. They will run it thru the "N.C.I.C." system, (a nation wide crime information system) and determined if it has been reported stolen anywhere, or if it has been recovered recently from something such as booty from a theft, or other suspicious activity. This is the same system that missing persons, stolen cars, boats, guns, etc., are enterented in. <br />This sounds like MORE than an oversight on the dealers part. Good luck and keep us posted.<br />...Bob in Calif...
