        Hi Chief,

        We knew this day would come and we tried our best to get another season out of the motors but the end is here with
        a blown portside motor. That’s’ the bad news……..
        I have spent many hours researching, calling, and emailing Honda dealers, or wholesalers, na onwide. I have been to
        find us Honda outboard motors new and used. There is an amazing long wai ng list and major shortage of motors of
        any size.
        There is a na on wide shortage and pricing will be going up 10 to 20 % next year. See this ar cle:
        h ps://www.google.com/amp/s/www.powerandmotoryacht.com/.amp/special-report/power-motoryacht-
        inves gates-outboard-shortages
        The Honda motors you see in links below are old and not worth the money to take a chance on. We will run into the
        same motor problems or worse. They don’t run…. I’ve been trying to get in touch with a person from an eBay ad for 5
        days. I sent 10 emails and no responses.
        I would not recommend to you and the town that we don’t put any money into rebuilding the old portside motor at
        Portland Yacht. We have tried a re-build already. The motor now has 1000 + hours and are parts are very hard to find.
        Parts will con nue to be hard to find in the future. We will run into the same thing with the starboard side motor
        soon enough. It also has the same hours and years of use.
        GOOD NEWS TIME…
        Deke found an amazing deal with a Maine Yamaha dealer. We did the research for conver ng over to Yamaha Motors
        on Marine 1 from the Honda motor setup. The dealer has no concerns or worries conver ng from Honda to Yamaha.
        This is our best op on. All things happen for a reason and finding this incredible deal right here in Maine is crazy

www.raymondmaine.org                                                                                                 Page 3
good. A dealer having two 300 hp on his floor, ready to be installed in 2 weeks, which again, is unheard of. They are
   here and can be ours to own. If we don’t act now this deal and our rescue season will be gone, which is the scary part
   of this conversa on. The lake is exploding with boats on the lake this year and so many inexperienced boaters at the
   wheel.
   We are very prepared and ready to service the community with our Marine unit. We have been preparing and
   training for such a busy boa ng season, hoping to save lives on Sebago when needed. We were fortunate that Marine
   1 was opera onal for the recent tri-athalon held from St. Joseph’s College and other calls this year . It’s not like we
   are the only boat on the water, but we are the biggest, most stable, specially built for rough ocean seas. With our
   trained personnel in Marine 1, we can motor threw any storm or waves to reach vic ms in destress to save a lives,
   Yamaha motors are a great motor. I have owned many of them. They will last us 10 + years with our dedicated crew
   providing consistent care and maintenance for the boat.
   Please consider this request so we can do our jobs that we have trained for many years. We cannot stop now since
   the town of Raymond ,and the Raymond Fire Associa on, have invested so much into Marine 1 already. All of this is
   meant to save lives on the water and represent our town. Please get Marine 1 back in service.

   Thank you for your quick considera on of this ma er,
   Paul Rogers

   All of these used and abused Motors below are research only. I would not recommend to purchase any of these
   motors.

   Hello Don

   The Steering issue would be repaired when the new motors are installed. It is a very common thing to occur.
