Blokes in the usa said mercury has shut down due to covid 19, i know we wait up to like 2 months for parts from japan but it seems its cripling the US

id say we will be fine for service items as they dont come from japan but stock held hereOriginally Posted by gazza2006au
more random less likely items like powerheads trim pumps and so on who knows
overseas shipping is taking longer due to less flights comming here direct, deliveries from th euk which use to take 3 days are now taking 10-14
Yeah but thats the thing with the usa everything gets sent from japan to the mercury america than distrubuted out to dealers the people were saying since mercury usa closed doors im assuming the dealers are still operating which would not be a good look for mercury in the close future in the usa.. i can see everyone saying they should have supported evinrude
A bit too much too late
Having a outboard manufacturer in your own country would kick ass over ordering from japan so far away, all those very hard to get parts would be at your finger tips
I reckon we are yet to feel the pinch with a second lock down but will be keen to see where we head in the near future as for servicability of outboards and international shipping restrictions suprised it hasnt pinched us on the ass as of yet

I thought it all came from Japan, that USA factory must be what the guys were talking about being shut down due to the virus
