Hey folks, looking for any advice or input you can provide - I got the dreaded call from the mechanic that my 99 Wilker Galaxie needs a new motor. Number 2 piston is totally gone, he figures from water damage. The number he gave me for a new motor, as most would imagine, was way more than I paid for the boat. He said he might be able to salvage what is left in there to possibly repair for about $3-4k. Just wondering if anyone has any experience and can let me know what you would do in my situation. I have, I figure conservatively, $7-9k in kicker motor/controls, downriggers, electronics, rod holders and tracks, and trolling gear to sell if the boat has to go, so it is not a total loss. But I don't see any boats for 8-10k that would come close to what I have now. Feel free to pm me with any wisdom if you care to share. Thanks!
