God
:clap: The beast is here. 2001 Mercury (Yamaha) 90 hp four stroke. It is a heavy beast of a motor for 90 hp. 386lbs.:head: The guy delivered it to MJ's junkyard, errrr.....I mean appliance repair, errrrr.....house. yeah. That's it.
Aside from a couple of scuffs on the motor cover, it appears to be in great shape. Approximately 100 hours on the motor. Just serviced at the dealer the end of last year. Came complete with controls, wiring, tach, cales, etc. I just need a prop for it.
For your viewing pleasure..........we'll start of with one of the big guy himself. Master appliance tech MJ;

I think I did okay for $2500. Now I just have to get it hung on the boat and sell the old motor and controls. :beer:
 
Chumbuddy thats a great deal. I paid $2000 last year for a used 15hp 4 stroke. Once you get that crusty stuff in the first picture cleaned off it'll be perfect.
 
Nice! Congrats CB. Won't be long now buddy. I wish I lived closer, I'd give you a hand...

Removing that crust in the first pic is at least a four to five man job ;-)
 
Ok, what I miss here. Chum wont send razors to lefty no more, but he bought himself a motor ????, for what ????, you back in the V game here Chum. : )
You looking for a V hull, I have my 78 hull if your interested. let me know.
Hammer.
 
Thanks guys. Just needs a good cleaning. The motor sat on a pallet at the marina since last year. She'll clean up nice though.
$2500 for this motor and I think I can get $1500 for the 50hp complete with controls, wiring, cables and stainless prop based on what most motors in this area are selling for. At the end I'll be into this for $1000 plus the cost of a new prop.:beer:

Hammer, come around more often and you'll be able to keep up with all the changes around here. No V for me.:hi: I just needed something small and good on gas for me and the little guy. I'll slum with MJ for the big water stuff.
 
Anyone could walk away with just about anything in MJ's yard. If he's not there, nobody else in the family would even have a clue. :sly::oh:
 
You got that right!!!!!

You could go there with a tank fire off a shot and run the gate down and when I get home in the AM I would go in the house and wake all up ask what happened and they would all look at me and say what are you talking about??:bat:
