Good place for Yamaha spares (90hp 2 stroke)

I look after the boats for Nottm Uni diving club. We have a pair of RIBs with the same engine on both- Yamaha 90 AETO albeit a few years apart (one's grey, the other blue).

Could anyone advise a good dealer for spares? Have called a couple of the ones on the Yamaha website and they seem to be run from someone's living room and don't reply to emails asking for bits!

I need:
spark plug lead cover (keeps falling off)
engine cover rear bracket
anode (it's about rotted through)
oiler link joint

I needed parts for my only Yamaha and used :: OutBoard Direct :: as local to me, very knowledgeable and the most competitive I found.

Hope the fe titling goes well.
