There were four 4-stroke outboards reported stolen when they burnt down Playa Punta Arena.

Coincidence?

Please be on the look-out for 4 stolen 4 stroke outboards, and a KLM motorcycle, and a 2007 blue/white Yamaha Wave-Runner. Not only were there arsonists, but thieves at Playa Punta Arena that day our community was burned out. And by the way, I welcome any ideas on how to get some justice on the subject. According to Norma Feneche (our former lanlord) since we were Americans we have no rights, only rich Mexicans like her do. And the police do what she says. Normally I would disregard such hateful nonsense, but my own eyes saw the ridiculous ineptness of the Mulege Policia in their handeling of the investigation.

So how safe do you feel now?

I'm sure Octavio is an okay guy but I was kind of wondering why he would be selling the motor at such a discount myself? Any ideas?

He might have to come down a little. Here's a new one with a 3 year warantee for $100 less.

Except for the fact that Suzuki is my "most unfavorite" motor in the world, it is a good deal for that area.
I have known Octavio for a long time and he has no reason to ever stoop to selling stolen merchandise. I am sure that he would have given you the information if you asked him. Some of those motors came through the coop program but this would basically be used as an auxiliary motor.
