Motor Upgrade

Looking for dealer recommendations to upgrade my motor on my bay boat. In the BR / NO areas. Don’t mind driving farther. Going from 150 to 250 hp Yamaha. Controls, steering, ect. Was wondering who you guys recommend that does quality work but fair on pricing. Thanks.

That’s about what I was thinking. I’m in BR, boat at camp in Chauvin. Anywhere close or around those areas. Friend just upgraded his motor. Tim’s Marine since work. He was pleased. They are working on a price now. But wanted to try and get a couple qoutes

H&M marine in Crowley used to have the least expensive “loose” Yamaha outboards in the southern states. Not sure if Tommy Harrelson is still operating down there…

Cajun Outboards in Addis

Crowley is a little farther than I’m willing to travel. Contacted Southern, Cajun and Tim’s Marine. Southern was very quick responding and the price was fair. Will give the others til the end of the day. Also, if purchased before the end of the month, they extend to 5 year warranty.

Southern is good also, zero complaints with them

23.5k installed for a 250 SHO at Cajun outdoors in 2024. The service wasn't the best. its was like they didnt care about the sale. They did acknowledge the shitty service and replaced my leaking hydraulic steering seals for free.

He passed from injuries sustained from an auto accident about 2.5 years ago.
It's still H&M Marine but with new owners. The prices are still very competitive and they are willing to match or beat anyones price.
At least that was my experience a couple of years ago.

Second for Cajun Outboards
Posted on 6/16/26 at 6:43 am to PurpleAndGoldFinger
I just picked mine up from Tim’s Marine Friday, quoted best price at least 1000

Worth a phone call to Breaux and Daigle in Pierre Part - Purchased 2 from him, he had best price both times.

Gotta upvote for Southern. They were the best price and when derigging my old motor, I forgot the hydraulic steering connection. Without hesitation they called me up to see if I had it with me and then replaced it from a spare for no charge.
