Hi all,

I just found out today that Outboard Covers Australia (http://www.outboardcovers.com.au/specials.htm is having a *huge* clearance of old stock at the moment.

I just ordered a full cover for my Merc - I think last time I priced them they were several hundred dollars, but the one I bought today from their specials was only $80!! (and that includes courier charges to Melb too!).

Anyway, just thought I'd give a heads-up in case anyone's after a cover to protect their pride & joy while it's out of the water or in transit :lol:

Cheers,

- B.

Well, my cover just arrived a little while ago. Talk about being a bargain! The enclosed invoice shows the original retail price was $423!!! (incl. shipping). I only paid $80! So anybody wanting a cover - go checkout the OCA site (see my prev. post) and see if there's one on their specials page to suit your motor.

Cheers,

I guess it depends on your definition of "small". Mine's a 115hp Merc 4st and I'm sure I saw some covers on their specials list for motors 150, 175 & up - depending on manufacturer... it's pretty hit & miss because it's old stock they're getting rid of. E.g orders where the colour was wrong, etc.

cheers,

They may not have had what I wanted, but always worth a look
