Customer Reviews

Absolutely flawless transaction. Eric was incredibly patient walking me through the twin F300 setup for my Mako VS. Motors arrived crated perfectly, zero hours, all documentation intact. Installation went smooth and the Helm Master EX joystick is a game changer. Will definitely buy again.

Best price I found anywhere for a Tohatsu 50 HP. Free shipping was a huge bonus. Motor showed up in 6 days to my door in Texas. Started on the first pull after adding oil. The power trim and tilt works buttery smooth. Great value under $5K.

Great little motor for my jon boat. Lightweight at 137 lbs and the EFI starts instantly every time. Shipping to Peru took about 3 weeks but that was expected. Only reason for 4 stars is the customs paperwork was a bit confusing on my end. Motor itself is perfect.

Dropped this 383 into my '69 Camaro and it absolutely rips. Dyno sheet showed 442 hp and 448 lb-ft right out of the crate. Break-in was straightforward following their instructions. The dressed long block came with everything except headers — carb, intake, distributor, even the fuel pump. Bolt-in and go.

MSO and bill of sale arrived with the motor, made titling in my state a breeze. Zero hours, factory fresh. The TorqueMaster gearcase is no joke — pushes my 21' bass boat like nothing I've owned before. DTS integration with my Garmin was plug-and-play. Top notch.

Solid crate engine for the price. Made 395 hp on the dyno after break-in. Paint on the valve covers had a small chip but nothing major. Customer service was quick to offer a replacement cover. Engine runs strong and smooth. Good value at $2,599.

$1,187 with free shipping? Unbeatable. Motor arrived in perfect condition to Pittsfield, MA in just 5 days. Tohatsu 5-year warranty registered without issues. Fuel tank, lines, and tool kit all included. My 14' aluminum boat planes instantly with this motor. Highly recommend.

Repowered my 32' sailboat with this Yanmar 3YM30. Factory test report and serial number documentation were all there. Shipping to Indianola, WA was $485 and the carrier called ahead to schedule. The 29 hp is plenty for hull speed and the engine is remarkably quiet. Very happy.

Massive V8 power for my offshore center console. Shipping to Norway took about 24 days which was within the quoted window. Motor was crated extremely well — no damage at all. The white finish looks sharp. Only wish the manual was also in Norwegian, but the English version is clear enough.

Bought this for my '95 Chevy pickup restoration. Stage 3 long block with Vortec heads is the perfect daily driver combo. Plenty of torque down low, smooth idle, and it passed emissions in Virginia without issues. Free shipping to Lynchburg was a nice surprise. Great engine for the money.

Shipped all the way to Oberon, Australia without a scratch. The wooden crate was ISPM-15 compliant and cleared customs in Sydney with no issues. Motor is brand new, runs like a dream on my tinny. The ProKicker feature is brilliant for trolling. Worth the wait and shipping cost.

Lovely motor for my fishing dinghy here in Fife, Scotland. The 20" shaft was exactly what I needed. Shipping to the UK was reasonable at $950 and took 18 days. Had to pay 20% VAT at customs but that was expected. Motor starts first time every time even in cold North Sea weather.

Ordered from Benalmádena, Spain and the motor arrived in perfect condition. The 8 HP is surprisingly powerful for its size — pushes my inflatable rib at 12 knots easily. Wave Outboard Riders answered all my delivery questions before I paid. Very professional international service.

I'm a mechanic in Stockholm and use these L05 long blocks for Mercruiser 5.7L repowers constantly. The quality is outstanding — 4-bolt mains, forged crank, roller cam ready. Wave Outboard Riders ships fast to Sweden and the engines always arrive with factory test sheets. My customers are thrilled.

Good motor for my fishing boat in Bangladesh. Shipping took about 30 days by ocean freight to Chittagong but the motor was well protected in the crate. Started up immediately after unboxing. The 30 HP has plenty of power for my 18' wooden boat. Would recommend for international buyers.

Repowered my Weldcraft 17' Angler with this Honda 90 and it's night and day compared to my old Johnson. The VTEC acceleration is incredible and Lean Burn Control is saving me about 15% on fuel. Wave Outboard Riders even helped coordinate the trade-in on my old motor. Top notch service.

Bought this marine long block for my Mercruiser 3.0L Alpha One sterndrive. Direct bolt-in replacement, all gaskets and seals included. Compression tested at 150 psi across all 4 cylinders after break-in. Running strong after 40 hours on the water. Great alternative to a full Mercruiser OEM block.

Motor is genuine Yamaha and runs well, but shipping to Russia took much longer than quoted — almost 6 weeks instead of 3. Customs held it for 10 days. The motor itself is solid, lightweight at 353 lbs, and the VTS trolling feature is excellent. Just be patient if ordering to remote regions.

Built a wicked street/strip '67 Mustang with this 408 stroker. The Stage 2 long block is no joke — 480 hp on pump gas with the right carb and ignition setup. Customer support was amazing when I asked about supercharger compatibility. They gave me a full parts list for a ProCharger setup. Highly recommended.

Bought a pair of Mercury 300s for my offshore catamaran. The twin setup with SmartCraft integration is phenomenal. Wave Outboard Riders gave me a 5% volume discount and the pricing was better than my local dealer. Both motors arrived synchronized and ready to rig. Outstanding.

Perfect kicker motor for my 25' sailboat. The 9.8 HP has enough push to maneuver in tight marina spaces and the weight is manageable for one person to lift on and off the dinghy davits. Free shipping to Connecticut was fast — 4 days. Tohatsu quality at a great price point.

Good marine engine for the price. Replaced a blown 3.0L in my Bayliner. The rebuild quality is solid — all new bearings, rings, and gaskets. Took one star off because the paint finish on the block was a bit thin in spots, but functionally it's perfect. Running 50 hours now with no issues.

Government contract for 3 Yamaha F300s shipping to Doral, FL. Wave Outboard Riders handled the SOW requirements professionally, provided full spec sheets, and delivered on time for our Nov 30 deadline. The 7% volume discount saved us over $4,000. All motors passed inspection with flying colors.

The Lean Burn technology on this Suzuki is incredible. I'm getting better fuel economy than my old 115 HP while having way more power. The 32-bit ECM runs diagnostics through my phone via Suzuki's app. Wave Outboard Riders beat every local dealer by over $2,000. Shipping was free and fast.

Direct replacement for my 2003 Sea Ray's blown 5.7L. Bolted right up to the Alpha One outdrive with no modifications. The long block came with all marine-specific components — saltwater-ready cooling, stainless hardware, and marine gaskets. One star off because the valve cover gaskets leaked slightly at first, but a quick re-torque fixed it.

Dropped this 460 into my '78 F-250 and it's a torque monster. Perfect for towing my 28' cabin cruiser to the ramp. The crate engine came fully dressed with aluminum heads, roller cam, and even the water pump. Break-in oil and instructions were included. Runs cooler than my old 351M ever did.

Repowered my 16' Boston Whaler with this F60 and it's the perfect match. The 996cc inline-4 is incredibly smooth and quiet. The 17-amp alternator keeps my electronics and livewell running all day. Wave Outboard Riders had the best price online and shipped free to Maine in 5 days. Couldn't be happier.

The motor itself is powerful and the 2-stroke torque is undeniable, but parts availability is becoming a real concern since BRP discontinued the brand. Wave Outboard Riders was transparent about this before I bought, which I appreciate. If you're okay with sourcing parts independently, it's still a great motor. Just know what you're getting into.

Classic small block for my '68 Chevelle restoration. The 350 HO is the perfect blend of reliability and performance — 330 hp is plenty for the street and it idles smooth enough for daily driving. Came with aluminum heads, roller cam, and a 4-bolt main block. Wave Outboard Riders even threw in a break-in oil package. Great experience.

The V6 3.6L on this Honda is a masterpiece. Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control (VTEC) gives it incredible mid-range torque for hole shots with heavy loads. The BLAST system launches my 24' pontoon loaded with 12 passengers like it's empty. Best fuel economy in its class by a wide margin.

Reliable little motor for my aluminum fishing boat. The electric start and power tilt are convenient features you don't usually find on a 15 HP. Shipping to Ontario was reasonable and took about a week. One star off because the owner's manual was only in English and Spanish — would have liked French for Canada.

This 396 stroker is an absolute animal. Put it in my '55 Chevy gasser and it runs 11.2s in the quarter on pump gas. The aluminum heads flow beautifully and the hydraulic roller cam gives it a wicked idle. BluePrint's quality control is top tier — every engine I've bought from them has been spot on.

Replaced a 90 HP on my 19' center console and the difference is night and day. The 115 FourStroke is incredibly quiet at idle — you can actually have a conversation on the boat. The DTS option made rigging a breeze. Wave Outboard Riders had it in stock and shipped same day. Free shipping to Georgia in 4 days.

Great motor for my 21' walkaround. The inline-4 is lighter than the V6 competition which improved my boat's handling. Fuel economy is excellent — I'm getting over 3 mpg at cruise. Only minor issue was a small scratch on the cowling from shipping, but Wave Outboard Riders sent a touch-up paint kit immediately. Good customer service.

Rebuilt my Mercruiser 5.7L with this ATK marine long block and it's running better than when it was new. The marine-specific components — brass freeze plugs, stainless valves, and marine gaskets — are exactly what you need for saltwater use. Compression is 165 psi across all 8 cylinders. Very impressed.

The dual prop system on this Suzuki is revolutionary. Zero torque steer, incredible grip in turns, and the boat planes in half the time of my old single prop 250. The Selective Rotation feature means I can run twins without a special left-hand rotation motor. Wave Outboard Riders beat the local Suzuki dealer by $3,200.

Dropped this LS3 into my '69 Camaro and it's a completely different car now. 430 hp is conservative — mine made 445 on the chassis dyno. The crate engine includes everything from the intake to the oil pan. Only reason for 4 stars is the shipping crate had a small dent, but the engine was perfectly protected inside.

The lightest 30 HP on the market at just 126 lbs. Perfect for my inflatable tender that I hoist onto my yacht. The EFI starts instantly even after sitting for weeks. The multi-function tiller handle is well designed — all controls are within thumb reach. Wave Outboard Riders shipped free to my marina in Fort Myers.

Good engine, but the shipping took longer than expected — 10 days instead of the quoted 5–7. The long block itself is solid and bolted up to my Alpha One without issues. Compression is even across all 6 cylinders at 150 psi. Just wish communication about the delay had been more proactive. Motor is running great now though.

The most popular outboard for a reason. Repowered my 21' bay boat and the F150 is the sweet spot for power, weight, and fuel economy. The variable camshaft timing gives it incredible torque from idle to WOT. Wave Outboard Riders had the best price I could find and shipped free to Louisiana in 5 days. Yamaha reliability is unmatched.

Replaced an old 2-stroke on my 16' skiff and the difference is incredible. The 4-stroke is so quiet my fishing buddies don't even know I've started the motor. The power trim is smooth and responsive. Wave Outboard Riders included a propeller sizing guide that helped me pick the perfect pitch for my boat. Great service.

Solid street/strip engine for my '72 Nova. The 385 hp rating is honest — mine dyno'd at 389 hp. The hypereutectic pistons and hydraulic roller cam are perfect for pump gas. One star off because the timing cover gasket was missing from the box, but a quick trip to the parts store solved it. Engine runs strong.

The PGM-FI fuel injection on this Honda is flawless. Starts instantly in any weather, idles at 650 RPM without a hiccup, and the fuel economy is about 20% better than my old carbureted motor. The BLAST system gets my 17' aluminum boat on plane in 3 seconds flat. Worth every penny for the Honda reliability.

The 4.2L V6 on this Yamaha is a torque monster. Pushes my 25' offshore boat through chop like it's nothing. The variable camshaft timing gives it incredible mid-range punch for getting over swells. Wave Outboard Riders beat the local Yamaha dealer by $2,800 and shipped free to Oregon. Incredible value.

This 427 is an absolute beast. Put it in my '67 Corvette and it runs mid-10s in the quarter. The aluminum heads and hydraulic roller cam are perfectly matched. One star off because the carburetor that comes with the dressed engine needed re-jetting for my altitude (Denver), but that's normal. Engine itself is phenomenal.

The most powerful outboard I've ever owned. The supercharged 2.6L inline-6 screams to 7,000 RPM and pushes my 32' center console to 65 mph. The Joystick Piloting system makes docking a 32-footer feel like a dinghy. Wave Outboard Riders handled the entire rigging package and it was plug-and-play. Unreal performance.

The 40 HP EFI is the sweet spot for my 18' fiberglass runabout. Plenty of power for tubing and skiing, but light enough that I can still handle it solo. The multi-function tiller is intuitive and the fuel gauge on the tank is accurate. Free shipping to Wisconsin was fast and the crate was in perfect condition.

Modern fuel injected power for my '69 Camaro restomod. The LT1 is smooth, reliable, and makes 460 hp feel effortless. The engine management system is complex but well documented. One star off because I had to buy the controller and wiring harness separately and it wasn't clearly stated. Engine itself is a masterpiece though.

Replaced a 90 HP on my 20' pontoon and the F115 is perfect. The 1.8L inline-4 is incredibly smooth and quiet — my passengers comment on how peaceful the ride is now.

Direct replacement for my 2001 Sea Ray's 5.0L Alpha. The long block came with all marine-specific components and bolted right up. Compression is 155 psi across all 8 cylinders. One star off because the exhaust manifolds were not included and I had to reuse my old ones. Engine runs great though — smooth and powerful.

Great mid-range motor for my 18' center console. The 4-2-1 exhaust gives it excellent low-end torque and the power trim is smooth.

Wave Outboard Riders shipped free to Tennessee in 5 days.

Great motor for my 19' aluminum fishing boat. The 1.7L inline-4 is smooth and quiet, and the fuel economy is excellent.
