I just returned from Canada with my new 8hp long shaft honda kicker and i got it for less money than I ever thought possible. Without you people I would never have know about the difference in prices between here and the great north. Thanks for all your insight.

What was the difference in price and how much did you end up paying? I'm in the market for a small Honda 4 stroke.

I payed $2512 can. total then you take out the GST tax that you get rebated at the border, and you get down to $2342 can. I got an exchange rate of 1.57 it came to a total of about $1495 us. Well worth the trip to langley to pick it up. do a search on canda outboards on this site and you will get some great info. Be aware of the possible warranty issues associated with purchasing in canda. All in all a great deal. If you want a price quote call Galleon Marine in Langley at 604 514 0460.

Baddawg,
Glad to hear you got a good deal. I was up there last week picking up a Yami 8 horse kicker. Got it used after spotting it on buysell.com and saved even more. Now, I just need to get busy and catch some fishies.
