Mid 60's 18 hp fast twin evinrude

[bowhntr]

this is a good running motor just needs a carburetor cleaning due to the fact that it doesnt run great at low speeds other than that it has worked very well for me. I had it on an older 16 ft lund and it pushed it 23 mph. i would like to get 350 for it but give me a call and maybe we can work something out. I could deliver this motor if need be.

[Troublehook]

long or short shaft? Pictures?

[Zehn0004]

diff user name but its me just using my gf's computer its a long shaft i believe. 17 inches from the top of the mounting bracket to the flange above the prop. its a great deal and it runs just needs a little tune up.

no pics sorry i dont have a scanner. motor is very clean

[mnfish]

Any idea what the model number is? Where in Farmington? I am right across the street from water tower/ police station.

[Troublehook]

I think that would be the right length for my boat

Are you going to be available anytime from friday to monday? My dad and I may want to come and take a look since you are not far away from here.

[Zehn0004]

i live in empire township right off highway 3 first person with over 300 takes it home. I will be home friday through monday but would like to get rid of it soon

[Troublehook]

That sounds good. WE are very interested. Will call when ready to check it out if its not already sold.

[Zehn0004]

why not till friday through monday its almost a steal at 300 and it runs.

[Troublehook]

my dad isnt home 'till thursday night, and will leave again on tuesday morning. Your right it seems to be a steal so friday is the best that I can do.

[Zehn0004]

sounds great trouble hook give me a call and ill give you directions friday would be great because saturday is trout opener and well sunday is the day after.

most fishermen are born honest but they get over it

[Troublehook]

ok it will probably will be friday then.

[Zehn0004]

friday will work but it will have to be in the evening after 5. As of now i have to work in the morning but plans may change

call me friday morning and ill let you know

[Troublehook]

I have school untill 2:20 anyways, so that will probably be fine, unless we go to our cabin (just realized we were going) before 5 but I doubt it. I wont be able to call in the morning because I will be at school, so I will just have to call later on friday, unless you want me to call tonight.

[Zehn0004]

you could call me tonight that would be fine is there any way you could stop by tonite i will be home all nite time isnt a big issue.

[Troublehook]

yes possibly tonite. My dad will be home any minute now, but we are going to see a 45 minute movie at the I Max theatre, but after that possibly. I just found two 25 horse motors on hsolist for a little bit more money than yours that I am interested in as well. IO still would definitely like to check yours out, because I dont want to get your hopes up of a sale, and say no. I am not saying this for you to lowere the price or anything, but just wanted to tell you that I have some others to look at possibly.

[Troublehook]

My dad just got home, and tonite will not work. Sorry it will have to be tomorrow after five. We drive basically through farmington to get to our cabin, so we should be able to find time.

I wish we didnt have to go

[Zehn0004]

sounds okay does that mean you buy it tomorrow if you like it or does it mean you have to look at those other motors first? youre not going to find a better deal than this because i am just trying to get rid of it. Another thing is that for some reason this motor is a very fast 18 horse because i have had a 15 horse motor on my boat and its not comparable at all so thats another thing to think about.

[Troublehook]

It is going to have to be sunday or monday now

We are leaving now so I cant check it out until sunday. To be honest, I dont even know if my dad is interested in those others, so we will check yours out first, and if it is the right buy, we will get it. Im sorry about that

I will be sure to write down your number, and call you, so we can see it on our way back home. ttyl.

[Troublehook]

I hate to be stubborn, but if this other motor that I saw is still for sale, I am going to check it out. Sorry I didn't call, didn't want to bother you at work. This other motor is a short shaft(Which is what i really need) a bit more power, newer parts, and such, plus its at about the same price, so I hope you can understand my reasoning for not purchasing yours right now. It may be up to a week before I see this other one (that is if it is still for sale) so I will get back to you when I decide. I am still considering yours, but if I don't I wish you good luck, and I think yours will sell pretty fast, because it is a good deal.
