I did that with a powerboat I had. Dropped it off in the morning, and picked it up in the afternoon. It wouldn't hurt to be sure they know it is "marine".

But they also sell a "marinized" aftermarket replacement for $228. Manufacturer: API MARINE Part Number: 17051 Description: Starter Suitable as a Replacement for Universal 299512 http://shop.torresen.com/ships_store/?p=details&ident=462735 Does anybody know if the USCG code requires that starters for marine diesel enginess have ignition protection? If so, it's worth paying the premium, imo. [The entire original message is not included]
