|  Question... 
			
			Anyone have a general idea of how much a 95' Yamaha 150 Ocean Runner long shaft is worth?  Good running condition, good shape.  I've been offered one for $2500, but I have no idea if that's a good or bad figure.

			I thought that only Johnson and Evinrude offered the Oceanrunner models.

			condition is everything, but that seems kinda pricey to me.  we are talking about  a 16 year old motor that has been ran in salt water.  i know yamaha's hold their value a little more, but a comp merc/omc can be had for  $1200/$1500.  if it is low hours and cherry, it might be the deal.

			A nice 150hp  20" longshaft motors by Yamaha should be worth $2500 IMO especially if it is a 1995, probably originally came on a bass boat or fish and ski. Most Yamha 150's were 25" as the 2.6 liter is a heavy beast when compared to a Mercury 2.0 or 2.5 liter and the Eagle series  v-6 OMC's. Most boats under 19' have a hard time carrying that weight. Like someone else said condition is everything. Yamaha V-6 XL or 25"motors typically sell for less as they are much more common.  B |

 Do ya see any crust around the motor and bracket?...checked the compression?...the shift shaft corroded?...foot oil clean?...clear w/no metal shavings...do controls come w/it?...SS prop?...if all the above checks out, I'd offer him 1800 for it and settle on 2250...

			I am with reelapeelin $2000 would be a fair price if it meets the conditions he said.  Ocean Runners are Johnsons,  I personally would rather have a Yamaha (not meant to offend anyone).

			Yes, it's a Johnson, in pretty nice condition.  Compression is even and at 80psig +/- across all cylinders.  But it's an opti and I've heard nothing but bad about them, so I passed.  Since I bought the boat he offered it to me at $2000.  I'm going to convert my 91' Merc 200 to a 25" shaft and hang that on the end.

			A Johnson opti  ...no such animal opti would be a mercury. Guess it was a FICHT and if she is still running it would have had all the updates. The eagle series OMC ocean runners are great motors, ficht series have a lot of controversy. B |

  He did say it was not a FICHT, and it's not a looper.
