Nooo. These aren't new motors. But they still have thousands of hours left on them. The cost of a new one is around 200k. When you think about it that way, a piston motor still looks good. Erick just sold the motor in the pic last summer for 22k, all set up for marine use.
Heres a link to Ericks Turbine place

How difficult would it be to find someone who can service a marine application turbine in the tri-state?

Dan as far as I know Jet Set is the only turbine runing in our area ( south jersey ) And I'm not even sure it's serviced down the shore. For sure something that will need to be checked into................Gary
