I bought my last outboard from them, no problem..
they will usually give you a 30/60 day warranty on
used motors.

They are great. I've bought 6 engines from them.
They really go to bat for you to get you on the water, and the used engines are generally top notch. If you get a camp return 9.9, they have little hours on them, as for one off the street, usually your guess is as good as theirs.

I have never bought one, so can't say, but I gave up on the camp return idea when motor shopping a few years ago. I was looking for a 60hp.
All the ones that had less than 500 hours were reserved for their Double Eagle package sales. All the ones for sale separate had high hours -- and the savings were not enough to justify the hours. Especially knowing how guests treat motors at fishing camps.
Maybe less so on the kickers, I don't know...but I can't imagine they'd have little hours...even if just 1 season old, probably more than 100 days at 10 hours per day minimum.
I have dealt with SGP on other things though and always found them very professional and helpful....just not sold on camp returns.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm trying to decide whether to go used and save a few dollars or to just splurge and treat myself to a new motor. The camp returns must have a lot of hours on them even if they are only 1 year old. Again, thanks to all, I think I know which way I'm leaning.

Kickers gonna take a lot less abuse than a main even if the hours are higher.
Used to get some main motors from them in the shellfish days and overall very good. A yammy is a yammy. The head goes when it goes.
Wouldn't go main but wouldn't even think twice about going kicker if they had the right setup.
Gimee the gaff!!!
