I already have An f70 installed but am in the process of a repower and have quotes for just over 9k installed ( for just engine not including new controls). If that’s what you’re asking.

I think a few shops quoted me 2k if I wanted all new controls and gauges.

Based on a low $8K price for the motor, that's a great price. Sales tax here (7.5%) would be $600 on a $8K motor.

Following. Also would be interested to know about what an f70 would cost

I've been looking in Facebook marketplace. Have a dealer in Ft. Lauderdale says $8100 + tax and rigging. Another a little up state says $8250 + tax and rigging. This is motor only.

Have you tried ericsoutboard in Miami? They had the best price around when I was searching for a new Yamaha vf90

Good Point, they're right down the road here in Key Largo as well.

I orders from here. No Eric doesn’t have it. I called Yamaha America. They could not help. I found one distributor in America that advertises the part and when I called them, they didn’t have it.

Thanks, ordered from UK this AM. $80 shipped. As a sidebar. I like the swivel grommet but too big for the area I'm working with. I called a place in the greater Chicago area that listed it on their website, couldn't get them to answer the phone.

Quick update. Found a motor in Largo Florida which is a haul (5 hours one way) but I can buy it and skip the rigging for now. Motor is $7,895 and with tax $8,418 out the door. Bad news is Yamaha just closed out the extended warranty availability on 3/31, so bad timing on my part.

I checked into the F70 rigging grommet and unfortunately it won't clear the ram on my Uflex hydraulic steering. Will be sticking with the mesh sleeve instead.

Dam, sorry to hear this. Just got my grommet in.
