I have only been to basspro shop. Don't need too much about boat/trailer shops. Looking for 9hp outboard and a trailer for my 12' seamax next year. Can someone recommend some shops near calgary I can go to? What kind of trailer is everyone using for inflatables?
Thanks!

Check out Rocky Mountain Honda for the outboard. Honda makes one of the nicest outboards on the market, but you do pay a premium price for it.

I went with Galvanized and love it! Launch is a one man job now no sweat.
They are great to deal with and even delivered my trailer on a Sunday!

Gerry from Kaygee links to them from his seamax site.

As for outboards I use a 9.9hp Honda and it is Perfect for my Seamax HD360.

Just my 2 cents (I am not affiliated with any of these companies. Just a happy customer.

Cheers.

No contest on the outboard. Bass Pro has the best prices hands down and you can get service for Mercury just about everywhere. Buying a Honda in Calgary really limits your service opportunities and you pay through the nose. I know because I have a Honda 8 kicker. I'M looking at a 9.9 Merc Pro Kicker electric start, long shaft, with power trim at BP for under 3300. try pricing that out at other places, the MSRP is over well over 4 g's

I have a 12" inflatable Saturn and 9.9 four stroke Mercury for a couple years. Really happy with this motor. It is very quiet and not using gas at all :) For all day fishing and trolling it might use 3-4 liters of gas maximum. Don't have a trailer yet (it was comfortably fitting in a back of my truck). But now I am ready to buy a trailer too. Let me know if you got a trailer and your thoughts about it.
