Ahhhhh but when you work for a factory - things change a bit. Roger on them
buying the whole thing - they will. But remember what I do for side work
and that it would take me 1 hour to switch outboards. My custom Inline
*will* be staying here, or somewhere secure... evil grin

When I worked for a dealer, the factory would not sell direct to an
individual. Having said that, figure out what boat you want, then go to a
dealer and ask him to contact the factory about any leftover or warrenty
takeback boats they may have. Since you don't want the motor, some
dealers
will buy a boat w/ a motor they need and split the package.

I personally would force the insurance to buy your complete rig (motor,
trailer, and all). Then go find a good used one for the money.
Most insurance companies will pay you full retail price for the rig (a lot
more than you could sell it for).

To a major manufacturer like Genmar , Four Winns - ect ??

I don't think I'll get enough fo rmy middle aged Four Winns (that was
killed
by a drunk driver while it was parked) to properly replace it, and
would
*seriously* consider buying a new hull (OB) without power or pre-rig or
warantee or anything but seats, hardware and guages installed.

I'd be willing to pick up at place of manufacture and tow it home to
finish
fitting out etc....
