Lookin' at a etec 200 HO tomorrow....
 

Shsshshss........... let's not get too excited........... I've passed on more than one used motor.

Genie A provided me with performance data and wow, sounds great !


Hard to find these in original condition, low hours, no issue, fair price.

:thre:

I think you might find one or two around here..
In the scrap yards

Aussie........ go easy on the coffee.........you're over anxious.

I'm LOOKING at a used etec tomorrow buddy, no need for pic's - too soon.

And by the way, I'll be the judge of whether my post is worthless or not.
Now go get your shine box.

And tell me a outboard that you will not find-----in the scrapyard??

Some one can always burn down any motor made---Honda--Yamaha--Mercury--Evinrude---does not matter---I have seen them all turned to crap one way or another.

Put a deposit on the motor so it's moving in the right direction so far.

Will be back to check it out after the 300 hr service and a few other things are completed next week. Then if still good - will take er' and move on to rigging and running.

Which would mean my 150hp would be for sale....including the newly installed trim motor, water pump, harness, oil tank AND stainless steel prop. Perfect compression and runs fine all for just.................. $.......hummm......one step at a time.

What picture would you suggest - mountain stream in the early am ? Smooth waves breaking on a beach ? Ms. Tropicana 2013 ?

For me---Miss Tropicana 2013 works

I hear ya..........

Easy there big fella.. I'm with Aussie on this one... :thre:
Lets see what this new wiz-bang motor looks like... I'll forgo seeing it hung on the stern for now. You have a week...LOL
