Your Lower Unit is Down. Here’s What to Do.

is right around the corner. At US Boatworks, we’ve been replacing
lower units for over 40 years. We stock remanufactured, aftermarket,
and new OEM units for Mercury, Evinrude-Johnson, Force, Mercruiser,
Volvo Penta, and OMC — and we ship most orders same day.

The Real Cost of Going Cheap
The lower unit is the working heart of your engine — every bit of power passes through it. Cheap aftermarket units built to a price rather than a standard fail faster, often mid-season when repair shops are 4 weeks out. Towing fees, labor costs, missed weekends — the “savings” disappear fast. Call us before you order anything. We’ll tell you straight what’s worth your money.
Does Your Insurance Cover This?
Many lower unit replacements qualify for coverage — and most boaters never think to ask. Call us before you file anything. Our owner handles every claim personally and works directly with your adjuster. One call can save you thousands.
