Evinrude outboards, closed shop

[steelheader]

Evinude outboards is out of business..service facilities having trouble getting parts...for your info

[Whynot]

I thought they stopped production a few years ago. They said parts would be available, I wonder if they just ran down inventory or stopped producing parts altogether as well.

They probably smelled the coffee when the tide turned towards 4 stroke motors. If you have one, maybe stash a spare impeller and a few other maintenance items just in case.

Yea BRP promised existing warranties would be honoured and parts available. I think mercury was taking over that aspect of things but I could be wrong.

Yes BRP stopped producing Evinrudes in 2020. BRP still exists and are working on what they say s the next generation of outboards with Stealth Technology.

loved my etec only problem was parts. My computer died and the dealer told me that it would take at minimum a year to get a new one but no guarantee. So I traded it in for a merc. It was 11 years old but I don't consider that old for an outboard. Dealer told me at time that BRP was only making enough parts to cover warranty work, so 5 years after the last one sold.

Sucks that..

I still have one but did buy some basic spare parts a while back.....impeller. 2 sets of plugs...


I spoke with a local marina after seeing this and they still have quite a few parts as well which now may not last long..who knows

I had an older Johnston a few years back and it was hard to get parts then… would have been impossible at this point so I guess I definitely made the right decision to change it up. Hopefully someone takes things over and starts making some parts because I know a lot of guys have them.
