Are Eska outboards any good? I know that they are no longer in production and parts are somewhat difficult to find, but are they good motors? I found a late model Sears Gamefisher that was made by Eska and am thinking about buying it.

Certainly not "top of the line" but if it checks out (compression test a must) they can be a pretty good motor. Nothing complicated about them = easy maintenance. There's plenty of them still pushing boats around the water. ;) <br />Backlash

It is a 1987 model. Compression was 125 even on both cylinders, has spark, so it should run.
