not new, but a heck of a lot cheaper.

Could be a good motor, but there's no way to tell for sure; also doesn't say how many hours are on the engine and even if it did, it's difficult to know whether or not the guy is telling the truth (yes, I've become cynical concerning these matters). Also, I think Willy needs a 25" shaft motor (this one is 20"). Guy wants $3500 for it. If I were Willy, for that kind of cash, I'd go the rebuild route and at least try to get some form of a warranty for the work.
