Doc, I'm bouncing around between blackmouth and steelhead. I might be able to deliver from Pickering to the 'Nooch if that would work for you.

I second the Pickering Marine recommendation. Dudley knows his chit and prices are fair.

If you really want to protect your motors for long life and possible resale value, look into Amsoils fully synthetic oil and gear lubes. Lower units especially will benefit from there gear oils. You can join for a small ($10) fee. This entitles you to better pricing than say Napa Auto or other retail suppliers. Just order from a local direct distributor and pick it up from them to save the shipping costs. A very cool deal. I have been running it in my 2'stroke 130 Yamaha and 4-stroke Yamaha 8hp-High thrust kicker. My 1996 Tacoma 4 wheel has 195,000 on Amsoil and runs as good or better than the day I bought it. Trans, front and rear diffs have a service change interval of 500,000 miles!!!!! basically life of vehicle. Engine oil change intervals of 5000-7500 miles for 5-30 SAE.or twice a year if you're smart. Google Amsoil to find local direct jobbers, No i'm not ,just a big fan. Just like it when my Chit works the way it was meant to.

I keep my gallon jugs and buy from Action Marine in La Conner. Can't remember the price off hand, but I believe it saves me around $4 a gallon that way. I run XD-100 on my 150 ETEC and have the 5 year warranty. I will never put anything through my motor other than the Evinrude XD-100, it is proven and why change to save $3-4 on a gallon when I have invested $13,000 on the motor. I have my motor set on the XD-100 setting and go through 2 gallons of so a year averaging 120-150 hours. Kind of like cheap insurance. Save the AMSOIL for 4 strokes and tow vehicles.
