Looking for gearbox

The gearbox of my Johnston 15 hp is broken. I am looking for a replacement. The gearbox from a 9.9 or 15 hp 2stroke will fit. ( Or so I believe). I can replace it with a long or short shaft. Any members know where to locate such a gearbox?

Are there good outboard breakers yard in the UK?

I found one in France but I don't trust the web page. I will post a link later and see if the provider means anything to the members here.

It would appear that the gearbox was ran without oil

Regards

Tsm

I got the gear box from Duffy's of Headford. I purchased the engine off them about 4 weeks ago. This business is effectly closed and I purchased an old engine from them. I rang Paul last week to see if he had an donor engine for the gearbox. He reverted the next day and I pulled the gearbox off a 10 hp 2 stroke Johnston. I used the engine yesterday on a 19 foot sheelin boat. Engine runs great and no problems with the gearbox.
