need advice on used outboard purchase...

[bsteckel]

ok ... i just located a motor for sale about 8 miles from my house. it is a 1998 suzuki 200 hp 25" with stainless prop. the price is going to be real right.

not sure on the hours, etc .. would like to go take a look at it before i lose this one.

and also, the yamaha guy returned an email that maybe we can get together this week to look at his motor (1992 200hp).

what do you think about the suzuki? i have heard good things about them.

i also scored a stainless marine floatation bracket 26" setback.

things are starting to come together!!!

The SUZUKI will be back to a weight issue as all of the V-6 SUZUKI 2 strokes weigh in at 470+ pounds. Solid engine though, just make sure to check the lower unit for cracks in the exhaust area where the prop rides inside the lower. They have a problem with cracking through there, and are not repairable once it happens.
