Been looking for hours for my boat keys and think I may have accidentally left them on my bumper! All I need is the ignition and boat locker keys....and the Mrs. swears she didn't hide them from me! Any help is appreciated. It's a '08 Z9.

I'd be calling White River Marine first thing in the morning.
See if you can get a stock number off the locker locks for reference.
Ignition key might have to come from Mercury
I'd call a couple actual boat shops and ask them what they need to get you a key, I pulled a boat into a shop and asked, the guy went and grabbed 5 keys came out and tried them and POW it worked in about 2 minutes, no disassembly, no bill.

For most locks & ignitions on boats they only make a certain key set like less than 5. Across all brands. I bet your buddy's boat key for a merc stand a decent chance of working.

Any local dealer should be able to help you out. They will most likely have your key in stock.

Thanks guys. Took everyone's suggestions and went to my local dealership. They had a bunch of extra keys so it wasn't long before they found what I needed. Interestingly they also found that some Mercury and Yamaha keys are interchangeable. Lesson learned and will be keeping spares in different locations. Thanks again.
I've got an older NX750, only came with one key, young guy at our local hardware store found the only match was with a tractor ignition key, cut it, good to go
Mercury also has a master key that can be used in any mercury ignition. When I had my old nitro I forgot to give my mechanic the keys when he was winterizing it and he pulled out the master to show me. If you ever have an issue you can contact any mercury mechanic or WRM group dealer and they should be able to hook you up.

Spare boat keys in the truck, spare truck keys in the boat, has saves me a few times.
Order mine on Amazon. Now I have 5 keys.
And keep one extra on your truck keys! I forgot my boat keys in my truck one day, so it saved me having to go all the way back to my truck to get it. I ordered my spare from ebay...
Yes there are only a few keys I stopped at a dealer the other day and bought all the had
