I have an opportunity to buy a Sears Gamefisher 5 h.p. outboard for my duck boat. Someone told me that Sears stopped selling outboards and that parts are difficult or impossible to find. Anyone know anything about this? Thanks for the help.

I believe that Sears quit handling outboards a long time ago. You can still get parts for them at Twincityoutboards.com. I am not sure that this is the correct web site but they have parts for Marins and about any outboard that has ever been made. You must consider this as for the purchase price.

WEll, I had one and I would not buy another. Problems,problems ,problems. Life is short and you don't need any more problems while out on a hunt.For parts try Mercury Marine.
They bought them out. Gamefisher,Us marine,Force and all the other names they went by. Good Luck
