Not sure where you are located (or if this will help), but I ran across this located in Green Bay, Wi. I just was searching and saw "fresh water" stuff. I think 69 Sabre lives in the area - maybe he knows more about them.
Good luck where you are and from others.

Boy, am I late for this party or what??
Yes. I live only a few miles from GB Propeller and know the owner and his son personally. They have done work and alum welding for me and some of my "projects". Nice people. They take in insurance write-offs and salvage them. Most parts are in very good to excellent condition. They are fair to work with and .... shhhhh....'negotionable'.
If you find something you like I will gladly go and take a look and pictures and get back to you.

Nothing we would consider a "classic". Mostly stuff from the late 80's, 90's. Many years ago they would fix up and resell older fishing boats etc but the market sorta dried up for that. Now they just take in freebie and insurance writeoffs and part them out. Started the business as a propeller repair and that is still the bread and butter. The owners son is the one who started the recycling.
