kb1965 Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Brother in law is selling me his 87, 7.5 hp evinrude motor. But he failed to tell me what he wants for it and stated to me to figure out a price I am willing to pay for it. So what you how much do you all think it is worth?Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riverrat56 Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 In all honesty I would say it's worth a little more than everyone is saying, especially if it runs good. Small used outboards are hard to come by these days, I would say $200 would be a good deal for you, $250 is probally the most I would spend.

sparcebag Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I have a 1980 7&1/2 HP Johnson 1 or 2 pull runs excellent, that if someone offered 250.00 I'd laugh at em!I may think of selling it at $400.00 But thats iffy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northlander Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 I would say under $200 is a good deal and over $250 is too much but thats me. Some meay say over that but I wouldnt pay it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishin4fun85 Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 no [PoorWordUsage]...I agree with fishinmajishin......he shouldn't be out to rip you off......he'll give it to you for a good deal if your on good terms with him!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinmajishin Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 seriously though...$250-$300 if it's nice. Must start and run without a hitch. Must have a good prop. IMO if an old outboard "needs a tune-up", you might as well use it as an anchor. It's a sign of neglect and poor maintenance and storage practices. Sure you can pay $100 and stick another $250 into it, but I'd rather buy one with a good track record and good physical appearance for the same $350.
