Hello, I have a 2008 Mariner second owner. Prior owner had damaged the bow thruster engine with water. It has now stopped working and pulled the bow thruster motor from the boat. Volvo Penta Factory Bow thruster and it seems there is not being produced any longer? Question. Where to find a replacement Bow Thruster Motor or repair to rebuild.
Thanks
Mike

Thanks. I did that with great success. Like New Motor rebuild $750 and works great. Mike
