    1999 Mercury 50hp Hub kit: HELP

    Sorry but it's not misinformation. Faztbullet showed you the type of hub you need. The prop part number you gave is NOT user replaceable hub. It uses a rubber hub. I have several of these very same props, exact part number. That is why you were not able to find a kit. But now you say you found...

    Electric boat maker shutters plant in WV

    PURE was just another electric outboard company, going belly up, as most of them do. And now with the downturn in recreational luxuries, more will fail.

    Approximate cost of new outboard ?

    Well thats what I'm facing now with 2 of my 39 and 41 year old motors. Trying to figure out if I can sell some boats and motors and have enough $$$ to buy either a new 30 hp for the 16'erm, or a new 60 hp for the 18'er. Still gonna keep the 2 stroke kicker so I can get my TCW3 fix when needed.
