Re: Where to look up how much an outboard is worth

[jeffyg]

quote FrankR:

I took my good running 2.5 Elgin to several club meets and couldn’t get $90 for it. I finally donated it to the Church’s yard sale. They sold it for $80.00.

you’d think it would be worth more than that just by being a working motor even if it is 70 years old it’s history and looks cool. If it wasn’t for the wind’s tendency to pick up and it not having the power to go into it and it not having neutral or reverse I’d run it forever, but having to shut it off every time you want to stay in one spot for a minute or 2 kinda stinks when you’re "redneck fishing" most call it running jug lines.
