Van’s Replenishes Large Stock of Used Marine Motors and Parts During Winter

Vans Sport Center keeps busy during the winter by rebuilding marine motors that it accepted as trade-ins last year. Vans Sport Center keeps busy during the winter by rebuilding marine motors that it accepted as trade-ins last year.

All through the winter, technicians at Van's Sport Center make great use of their time by reconditioning or parting out the trade-in marine motors that our store in Grand Rapids accepted during the 2016 boating season.

Our winter work can add up to big savings to you for marine motors and parts that have been run only in fresh water.

So now is the time to start thinking about whether the boat you love should be repowered with a larger used motor or if that tired old 2-stroke you've been nursing for years should finally be retired.

Some of our do-it-yourself customers keep themselves busy during the winter and save a lot of money by using our website to find used outboard and I/O motor parts among our inventory of more than 500,000 new and used parts. In addition to the more common parts for modern motors by major marine engine manufacturers -- Mercury, Johnson, Evinrude, Yamaha, Suzuki, Honda, MerCruiser, Chrysler/Force -- we also have parts for vintage motors that are hard to find elsewhere.

Because each part is carefully checked by our certified mechanics, we offer a guarantee that our used parts will work for your application or we will replace it with another one free of charge.

Motors that our technicians determine should be reconditioned go through a rigorous 20-point check, then repairs or overhauls as needed to bring them back to great working order. Check out our website for deals on motors ranging in size from engines that will power a pontoon or cruising boat to a small motor for a small fishing boat: Used Outboard Motors.

Based on year, you can expect to pay half to two-thirds of what a new motor will cost. Just click on the brand of motor that interests you on the Used Outboard Motors tab, then the horsepower to start shopping.

We can also help you to find a particular used outboard motor or part that you may not see on our website. Just go to the contact page at Contact and type in what you are looking for or give us a call at (616) 364-0666.
