    Seems like they would both want the business since I assume Mercury covers the charges on a recall.

    Another brand has a requirement that its dealers not deliver to a customer any motor with an open recall. I would suspect that Mercury has a similar policy.

    So if the first dealer has not done the recall then the second one surely would.

    Both.

    However, the INSTALLING Dealer (the one who physically puts the engine on the boat and performs the Pre-Delivery Inspection) MUST register the engine. It should NOT be registered by "Dealer-1" and then shipped to "Dealer-2".
