Default Where does one purchase an outboard engine?

I purchased a new 19' pontoon last season with a 50 hp Mercury engine. It seems sufficient, however, when boating a long distance it just seems to move too slow and take too long. To my surprise, I have been told that I would not find a marina on Winni that would sell me a new outboard engine. In other words, once you buy it there is no provision to upgrade to a different new outboard. I've been told that marinas on the lake don't even carry new outboard engines other than those installed on new boats. I have also been told that I would not find a marina on the lake that would sell me a new engine without a new boat. So, here is my question. How do I upgrade to a new 75 to 90 hp engine while trading in my one year old 50 hp Mercury and do so without transacting somewhere other than on Winnipesaukee?
