Our History
Buy outboard Motors HQ is a family-owned and operated business in BC. Our team members are committed to fulfilling all of your marine and recreational needs. Come visit us at our lakefront location on Kootenay Lake in beautiful BC.
Boating and outdoor recreation run deep in our family. Our family-run business has been serving guests for over 70 years on Kootenay Lake. As a third-generation local business, we have the expertise, facilities, and unbeatable waterfront location to fulfill the marine and recreation needs of our second families.
Our Dealership is more of a destination as compared to other dealers as we are located right next to a resort and hot springs, and our waterfront location allows people can test-drive our products before they buy them. We believe it’s worth the trip for people to come out and experience our company.

Value & Trust
Our success is based on our ability to offer our Customers value and service and to earn their trust. Our entire business is focused on delivering that promise. In this highly competitive environment, we compete on selection, quantity, availability, price, customer service, convenience, and access and so we strive to offer our customers, a broad range of branded and other products to choose from in all core boating areas.
We aim to always be in stock and to be priced right. Our staff are knowledgeable and eager to help, and our stores are easily accessible and fun to shop in.
Products
Our Customers come from all over the world and from varying climates. The marine environment is a harsh one and the tropics particularly so. We find ourselves in a unique and challenging position – making sure we have the right merchandise, the wanted brands, suited to the tropics, and a boat’s original specifications or the ultimate destination.
In an effort to meet and exceed our Customer’s expectations, we make a significant investment in traveling to international trade shows and conventions, being exposed to the latest products and innovations, meeting with many suppliers from all over the world, negotiating keen prices and buying what we believe has proven to work best. We are doubly fortunate to have worldly and knowledgeable sailors with years of marine product experience in the region. Many of them are characters well-known to those who sail these islands.
Most importantly though, our product choice would not have evolved without our customers’ input. We take comments and input very seriously and we are not averse to admitting mistakes, dropping products that do not meet expectations, and testing and acquiring new lines or items suggested by our Customers
Distribution
Our Headquarters are in Kootenay Lake – very much a crossroads with well-serviced air and sea freight routes. This, coupled with the island’s duty-free status, makes Kootenay Lake an ideal hub to conduct our business and our online store. We are able to economically ship fairly large quantities from around the world, break bulk at our warehouse, and quickly redistribute to our other stores, wholesale, and off-island Customers by air and sea.
With over 500 suppliers and nearly 30,000 unique items, this enables us to maximize supplier discounts and minimize store overheads by reducing the buying, receiving, and administrative burden to them – ultimately translating into better pricing to our Customers.
