Reply To: 1929? Evinrude Fastwin

[PM T2]

were you happy to get it for what it cost? If so, then its worth what you paid, that much I can tell you.

For some reason they’re not terribly popular among collectors. Its kind of a mid-range motor and for whatever reason folks seem to prefer either something bigger or smaller than the Fastwin. I’ve never run one so I can’t tell you what it can or can’t do on a boat.

I’ve walked away from them for several reasons, but the asking price was never one of them. I’ve seen them priced from 75 to 150 bucks. Many times even the 75 dollar motors went back home with the vendor. Kind of a shame, because I’m sure they are just as good s motor as any of the other 1929 Evinrude motors.
