That thing looks CHERRY. I was lusting over it and betting it would make my 18 SCREAM if I had the $$.

That is what is called the super 6 by SUZUKI. The 150 dual plug was a choked down 225 basically and was frownedd upon by many of the BASS fishing organizations that had a 150HP rule. That thing was nowhere near a 150 at the prop, but much closer to 200. Not to mention the torque it had for a 150. I would think it would be capable of tearing your 18 footer up if your transom isn't as good or better than new. it is a heavy 150, but makes up for it in torque and the ability to turn a big prop.

As for the price of the OP's, I would say $3500 is more than fair if it checks out. You need to have him at least open up the crate and let you inspect it for any signs of corrosion.
