turn it in to the insurance fraud division and let them investigate it. Give the outdrive serial number to a Merc dealer to run and see what comes up beforehand just to make sure about what was sold to you. 27 K to fix what ? that sure sounds like a lot. even for a transom assembly replacement and drive all brand new for one side.

I recently one month ago had yet another problem with same drive, come to find out RF took XR off my boat and replaced it with older Bravo 1 upper and internals. First part number on insurance quote for XR upper does not bring up any part at all (Bad # Given) and all other part numbers were for XR parts that were not used on my boat. Getting my boat repaired just cost me $10,000 out of pocket, on top of $17,000 given by insurance company. What kind of business does this?

Not saying RF didn't but can we see a picture of the XR drive that looks like a B1? In 1996 that boat would have came with B1's if it was HP500.

Bottom line. The boys aren't Reggie. Sad. Still wish he would come back somehow.

Calling bs, or the most ignorant boat owner ever. Who pays out that kind of money and doesn't at least look at the drive for a minute and say "wow I paid a lot for that shiny black drive" or "wtf??? That drive doesn't look new?"

You didn't notice the port drive did not look like the starboard???

They all look alike ya know. I can see the overlook. :)

After you call it fraud there is a chance of reverse contract as to who commited the fraud?:signs069:
