[QUOTE="ol sarge, post: 289528, member: 7670"] I am in the market for an outboard for my 14 ft Smokercraft. it is rated for a 35 hp. I have found a very clean 1984 Johnson Seahorse 15 hp for $750 at a marine repair shop. They will guarantee the motor for 30 days. He told me that if I bought it now, he would store it until spring and the warranty would start the day I picked it up. I asked about the history of the motor and he said a guy brought it to the shop for a lower unit issue and was unwilling to spend the money to make the repairs. He said that they bought the motor and made the repairs and are now selling it. This guy does alot of small engine and outboard work. Do you think it is worth it and does the warranty made the deal? He also had a sweet 1964 Evinrude 9.5 for $275 but I think the 15 is a better bet. What are your thoughts? ( he is willing to dicker on the price since it is going into the winter season:Minnesota) [/QUOTE]
